Regarding the tour to the Temple of Poseidon. It is beautiful, it is worth to get this pack to see it. It is in the afternoon of course, but seeing the temple and the views is beautiful. It made me fall in love with Greece even more. The tour guide was very nice, charming at all times and super patient with all travelers. He was always looking out for us. Regarding the Parthenon it is a must see, you can't leave Athens without seeing it before. The organization is not bad, but it is better to go in advance. We did not have to wait in line, but I imagine that if you go in high season things change. I hope you find my review useful, I wish you a good trip 😊

Skipping the line and getting to the Acropolis early was great and super easy. We were able to go slow with our grandmother and enjoy all the sites on the hill. It was so busy when we were leaving I'm glad we got in early. The bus was okay. It took a very long time to show up and there was confusion at the interchange about which bus was going where. We missed our bus to the beach because of this. One of the drivers was also not giving people enough time to get off at the stops so many people missed their location. The staff at the interchange did well at organizing cruise participants though. We were not on a cruise but noticed they were helpful.

The acropolis museum was a highlight from my 10 day trip to Greece. The story highlighted the history of the Parthenon, attending to the mythology of Athena and Poseidon's battle for the role of protector of the city. It also highlights interesting archeological findings, history on why statues were destroyed, and stories about other Gods and Goddesses. Below the main museum was an excavation site that was interesting. I also wandered to an exhibit regarding Iraqi dates that was touching. There was artwork in this area made out of date packaging. There was an area to sign a book, which I did happily, to express a call for peace. 10/10!

Unleash your inner explorer as you hop on and off across 4 routes with 35 stops, featuring gems like the Temple of the Olympian and Panathenaic Stadium.

Enjoy a delightful pre-recorded commentary that spills the city’s secrets while you soak in the stunning views from open-top buses.

Step into the timeless Acropolis and lose yourself among the majestic Parthenon, honoring Athena, and a grand amphitheater that dates back to AD 161.

Journey through time at the Acropolis Museum, home to ancient Greek artifacts, dwellings, and everyday objects from 3,000 BC to the 12th century AD.

Visiting the Acropolis Museum in Athens turned out to be a wonderful experience. I came to the city with my wife, and since the day was rainy, we decided to spend some time indoors. Choosing the Acropolis Museum proved to be the perfect decision. The museum beautifully captures the long and complex history of the Acropolis, offering visitors an in‑depth look at its significance over the centuries. What struck me most was how clearly it illustrates the fate of the Parthenon’s artistic treasures. Many sculptures and artifacts have been taken from Athens by successive invaders, and today they can be found in museums across France, the United Kingdom, and Turkey. Despite repeated letters of intent, these artifacts have not been returned to their rightful home. In one of the most powerful displays, the museum presents white plaster replicas of the missing friezes, serving as a silent yet moving protest against the looting of Athens’ cultural heritage. The Acropolis Museum is not only a place of art and history but also a reminder of justice that is still waiting to be fulfilled.

The sights on both parts of the combo were breath taking. No problems with the tickets, only issues I had were a miscommuntication to me when purchasing the tickets, was originally told pickup would be at my hotel but was later told (after purchase) that had to go to a meeting point, which was an added expense to me. Headout did provide a future credit for the miscomunication on their part as they attempted to resolve the issue. Additionally, there was confusion on the first part of the combo (Acropolis) as it mentioned a meeting point, but there was no guide, we had to show the tickets at the entrance so we were standing around looking for a guide from the vendor. Only only part was the tour for Temple of Poseidon, it was not a true guided tour, they just drove us to/from the site, no tour info was really provided, but was otherwise a nice trip, just be aware this combo is more self-guided than guided.

The Acropolis Museum is a truly impressive place that perfectly combines ancient history with modern architecture. The building itself is beautifully designed, filled with natural light and glass walls that create a strong connection between the exhibits and the Acropolis just above it. The museum displays original sculptures and artifacts from the Acropolis in an elegant and educational way, helping visitors understand the cultural importance of ancient Athens. The layout is clear and easy to follow, and the explanations are concise and informative. One of the highlights is the top floor, where the Parthenon sculptures are arranged in the same order as they originally appeared on the temple — a brilliant idea that gives visitors a real sense of scale and context. Overall, the Acropolis Museum is modern, well-organized, and deeply moving — a must-see for anyone visiting Athens.

Amazing experience! The Acropolis is rich in history and very well preserved, just beautiful to explore, learn about and admire. The views of Athens from above are also remarkable. The booking process with Headout was super quick and easy, no issues with the tickets or meeting spot. We went at the 1pm timeslot, which I usually wouldn't do as its known to be busy but we hoped in October it wouldn't be so bad - and it was alright! Definitely busy but the lines moved quickly and you still had space! The lines moved quickly (immediately started letting people in at 12.45pm) and before we knew it we were in! The audioguide of the Acropolis would've been worth the extra few euros to make it mor engaging but there are lots of informative signs around! We got lucky with sound testing at the ampitheatre too!

Everything about the experience was just surreal. I’ve always had a huge love for Greek mythology, so actually being there and seeing it all in person felt like a dream come true. Walking through the ancient sites, imagining all the stories that took place there it honestly gave me goosebumps. The guided tour made it even better; they shared so many cool facts, myths, and little details I never would’ve known on my own. It wasn’t just a visit, it felt like stepping right into history.
