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 whole experience was mind blowing so much history and the view is picturesque. I highly recommend going early in the morning. We took the 8 am tickets and by 9 am the sun was scorching. The booking with headput was easy. However I think the instruction for the Acropolis should simply mention redemption tickets at main entrance rather than south slope as even our taxi driver had no idea about south slope. We met other people that had booked with headput and they found it confusing too. Other then that I recommend headput and a visit to the Acropolis for sure!

Visiting the Acropolis was one of the most memorable experiences of my trip. Walking up the hill and standing among ruins that have survived thousands of years gave me a real sense of history and culture. The Parthenon was absolutely stunning, and I loved imagining what life in ancient Athens might have been like. The view from the top, overlooking the whole city, was breathtaking and worth every step of the climb. It felt special to be in a place that holds so much significance for the world.

The amazing ancient buildings. They were used for about 1000 years. The ruins at the base of the Acropolis were interesting.
