Our Group of 7 had an amazing time on this tour. The Acropolis is breathtaking from all vantage points, but when you hike up and stand at ots base, it is awe inspiring. The history and craftsmanship, alomg with the sheer size of this important piece of history left us all just wowed. Allow yourself alot of time, as there is alot to see and the walk itself is moderate to severe at times. Comfy shoes and lots of sunscree, I recommend an umbrella as the Grecian sun is not to be toyed with. Greeat experience for the money, ad definitely a bucket list worthy place,

Booking through Headout was quick, easy, and completely hassle-free. The tickets for the Acropolis and the National Archaeological Museum were delivered immediately, and everything worked perfectly at the entrances. The instructions were clear, and the whole experience was smooth from start to finish. I would definitely use Headout again for future trips and recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient way to book attraction tickets.

Unlock ancient Athens with access to the Acropolis, Parthenon, and more—then chase the sunset at Cape Sounion for one perfectly themed Greek adventure.

Roam the Acropolis, stand before the Parthenon, sit where ancient dramas played in the Theatre of Dionysus, and learn its history via your audio guide.

Cruise the coastal road to Cape Sounion and hear dramatic legends of Poseidon and King Aegeus as you approach the cliffside temple with a multilingual audio guide.

We really recommend this. The tickets were easy to use, and we were able to get in without any hassle. The night before, I went through the audio guide and took some notes so that I could give my friends my own tour during the walk. Because of that, we were able to appreciate the Theater of Dionysus, the Parthenon, and the rest of the Acropolis with much greater understanding. Be sure to bring water and wear sturdy shoes, because you’ll be doing quite a bit of walking and some sections can be slippery. The view of Athens is beautiful, and for us, it was one of the best activities during our city trip.

The grandness of the Acropolis was what stood out to me, and the fact that millions of people over decades have walked the same paths. It's worth meandering about. But it's also worth seeing it from Mars Hill, and the other high points in Greece, even roof top dining experiences at sunlight. Walk around Athens at various times of day and notice it from every angle. Visit this first things at the beginning of your trip.

The activity was great but the communication upfront wasn't too good. I did not realise that I needed a kids' ticket separately to get in and it wasn't disclosed until I asked proactively. For you guys maybe you should mention somewhere that if you need children's tickets, you need to separately purchase them or get to the Acropolis ticketing booth early and get them in advance.

An absolute must-see in Athens! Visiting the Acropolis was an incredible experience. Seeing structures like the Parthenon up close is absolutely breathtaking, and the panoramic views of the city from the top are unmatched. It does get crowded and there isn’t much shade, so I highly recommend going early in the morning or later in the evening. Don't skip this if you're in Greece!

The app is easy to use, the visuals are great, and you can explore certain areas without having to follow a strict order—so you can visit even the most crowded attractions without having to stand in long lines of visitors.
