      When they send me the e ticket it was only for 1 person when I bought for 2. Did not understand that because the ticket was written in Greek but the invoice send by email states purchase of 2 tickets. Fortunately, ticket was only 10€ , so we just went to buy another ticket and it's Nov the crowd was not there and the ticket was low season pricing. Hope TripAdvisor shall look into this matter as it does not give me motivation to book with TripAdvisor the next time.

      L’acropoli vale il biglietto ( 20€ Su internet ci sono i prezzi non aggiornati) peccato che il partenone sia in ristrutturazione e non ci si possa avvicinare . Il museo dell’ acropoli vale per la struttura in sè belle le ricostruzioni del partenone e le cariatidi Se arrivi presto non c’è bisogno di prenotare il biglietto salta coda( periodo dei morti). L’agorà solo con biglietto ridotto ( 5€) ne vale la pena altrimenti si può vedere tutto dal perimetro esterno. Consiglio la taverna aris per cena o pranzo economica e caratteristica ( anche glutin free)

      Great view of history, beautiful structures! A surreal moment that takes you back in time imagining how the structures were utilized during their period of history.

      Desverre fikk jeg ingen pdf billett. Ente opp med å betale for nye biletter. Her burde tur agent virkelig ta seg sammen!for dem av dere som ønsker billetter anbefaler jeg å kjøpe direkte. I inngangen er det rabatter for grupper, familie osv. Akropolis var da fantastisk!!!

      The Parthenon, seeing the ancient architecture was astounding. This was a on one a life time experience and the walk up was definitely worth it

      Visit athens, und erkunde die Stadt zu Fuss . Wir hatten 3 volle Tage und sind jeden Tag ca 25km marschiert. Gute leichte sommerschuhe sind wichtig unsere Unterkunft war zentral 10min zum monastiraki Platz dort ist immer was los und dort haben wir meist auch gegessen Mittag und abends. Alle Leute sind sehr freundlich. Der akropolishuegel ist ein muss. Empfehlung dort sein wenn aufgesperrt wird. Da sich dann lange Schlangen bilden hinfahren und ansehen es lohnt sich LG david

      We downloaded the tickets with bar code. The Acropolis only takes QC code. This company wouldn’t believe me so I have to start a whole thing. The day was ruined and we had to buy new tickets. Do not get these just go to Acropolis. Not a big line don’t be taken in!

      It was an amazing experience, very beautiful place with a nice view from Athens. The weather was good

      I will not book with tripadvisor again for the Acropolis - they only sent me one bar code and I had to purchase the second onsite for my husband to gain entry. I called the customer service and they were no help and I am waiting to hear from them for my refund for one ticket. Tara

      Très belle excursion. Nous avions pris un guide privé, un plus pour la visite. A faire tôt le matin ou en fin de journée pour éviter la horde de touristes.
