How can you visit Athens without paying a visit to the landmark monument and symbol of Western civilization? The magnificent Acropolis monuments of Athens! Tips Book your entrance tickets in advance to skip the lines at etickets. tap.gr If you have participants under 25 years old (discounted), you will have to wait to confirm their age, so make sure you bring IDs or passports. You can also buy a combo ticket at this link that includes all the monuments. Book a tour with a licensed tour guide. One of my Airbnb experiences is the Acropolis monuments with a licensed tour guide. Having a licensed guide will make your visit to these antiquities worthwhile, considering there are so many details, tips, and knowledge you can enrich from this visit. Choose to enter from the South Slopes entrance so you will have the opportunity to visit the Ancient Theatre on the south slopes. Better photo opportunity through this entrance, less crowded and better views. Wear comfortable shoe hats, and have a water bottle (the only food and drink permitted). Up to Acropolis, there is no shade. I prefer to visit before 10:00 am and after 5:30 pm. Acropolis opening times. Winter: December to February 8:00 to 15:00 March to April 8:00 to 17:00 Summer May to August 8:00 to 20:00 September 8:00 to 19:30 October 8:00 to 18:30 November 8:00 to 17:30 Strollers, drinks, or food (unless it is water) are not allowed in the monument area. Acropolis subway station is close to the south slopes entrance (exit to Makrigianni street). A visit to the nearby Acropolis Museum is another excellent idea to complete the visit to Acropolis, enjoy some indoor AC and grab a snack at the museum's restaurant. Excellent souvenir shop too. Again try to book your entrance tickets in advance through the Acropolis museum website (different entrance ticket). A vaccination certificate is mandatory for your visit to the Acropolis museum.
