The visit was pleasant. A little too crowded, though, and difficult to move around the popular sites. The audio guide is very well done. A few language errors created by the ia robot. I know what I'm talking about because I'm an audio professional. The steps in the guide are well thought out, although it's not easy to walk around and follow the chronological order of the audio guide. Despite our best efforts to understand, we didn't visit in the same order. A few more photos and snapshots might help to suggest the right route. Is it possible to download the guide? That would be nice as we paid for it. Thank you

My visit to the Acropolis and Parthenon was absolutely unforgettable. The ticketing process was smooth and convenient, and having the optional audio guide made a huge difference. It provided fascinating historical details and context that helped me truly appreciate the significance of every monument. Walking up to the Parthenon was breathtaking—the views over Athens are stunning and the atmosphere is filled with history. Despite the crowds, the site felt very well organized, and I never felt rushed. This experience is a must for anyone visiting Greece, and I would definitely recommend booking with Headout for the ease and excellent service.

I enjoyed it. I've been to the Acropolis many times. The audio guide, while a little hokey at times (Maria ... really?), gave me a more coherent appreciation of the layout, history, and architecture of all the buildings on site then previous visits when I wandered on my own. I would have liked more information on the amazing feat of Manolis Glezos and Apostolos Santas tearing down the Nazi flag from the eastern end of the Acropolis, the first act of resistance to the Nazi occupation. But overall I thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour..

    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.

    Very easy to navigate as a first time visitor. Staff are very friendly and speak english. We were slightly late but there was no issues with the time. It was pretty busy, but that was expected because it was a Sunday afternoon and the weather was really good. The lines to get up to the acropolis were quite long but still enjoyable. More time to take in the sights and talk to other fellow travellers. Truly breathtaking views and great photo opportunities for your instagram posts.

    After much poking around to find the right ticket for my need I came across this one. Excellent headset guide that allows you to move independently around the site. Interesting explanations, trivia and short in duration, so not boring. Kudos!

    “Excellent service! Buying the Acropolis ticket in advance was super easy and quick. It’s a great idea to arrive about 30 minutes before your time slot (mine was at 12:00, I came at 11:30). The tour and the app were wonderful — I learned everything I wanted and really enjoyed the experience!”

    Seeing the historical sites is indescribable. Be sure to watch the time. We took the lt time slot to escape the crowds and unfortunately only had 1 hour as it was currently closing at 18pm. The staff at the Acropolis were very unfriendly!
