The trip was well organised with different timings across the day to spread the crowds. We were pleased it was cooler time of year so waiting wasn't too hot and it was a pleasant temperature at the top. The access was goood for most levels of mobility and it wasn't exhausting going up. You definitely need good flat shoes/trainers as it can be slippery off the main tracks. At the top there was lots of space for all to enjoy delicate the crowds on the way up. It was awe inspiring looking at the Parthenon and other buildings. Very pleased we went to the acropolis museum first and knew more about the history and buildings.

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.

Visiting the Acropolis was absolutely incredible. The history and architecture are breathtaking, and seeing it in person gave me a real sense of how advanced and artistic ancient Greece was. The views of Athens from the top are stunning, especially around sunset. Everything was well organized, clean, and easy to navigate with clear signage and helpful staff. It’s one of those places that truly lives up to the hype — you can feel the history in every step.

Save big with this super-saver combo as you visit to the Museum of Illusions and the world-famous Acropolis & Parthenon.

At the Museum, 15 illusionary exhibits like the Kaleidoscope, Vortex Tunnel, and Infinity Room will completely blow your mind away.

Don’t miss out on the Infinity Tunnel which seems to defy gravity –

you'll feel like you're walking through a bottomless pit!

Visit the ancient Acropolis and the temple of Parthenon with a multilingual audio guide, and fully take in the architectural beauty of ancient Greece.

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus – an amphitheater built in 161 AD and which still holds concerts today – will surely leave you in awe.

Fun Fact: In the 6th century, Christians converted the temples of the Acropolis into churches and the Parthenon became a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary.

Truly memorable experience taking my retired architect father to visit the Acropolis Parthenon for his 80th birthday. A dream come true for him. Went earlier in the day to avoid the crowds. No pressure rushing to the top so plenty of time to take in the spectacular buildings and views from the top. Very easy to find and access and sunshine to top it off!

Excellent, we went in November so no crowds, no queues and everything was easy to navigate. Bus staff very friendly and helpful. Acropolis and Parthenon amazing, went straight in at our allocated time and not too many people in there so got some great photos.

Being that it was low season for travel it made seeing the sites and taking pictures very accessible! I loved that my group and I had a chance to take the tour very slow and enjoy the beautiful weather.

We arrived at 8:00 a.m. and, without crowds of tourists, we admired one of the most important monuments of European culture.
