Overview
Please note that there are several options available for this tour. You can upgrade your experience by selecting an option that includes the entrance fees, adding a visit to the Acropolis Museum or the Ancient Agora. Select the one that best suits your preferences.
Join our Early Bird Acropolis Tour and beat the heat and crowds! Starting from the main entrance, we'll head straight to the Parthenon and see the famous Caryatids at the Erechteion. Our licensed guide will share fascinating myths and historical facts about these iconic monuments as you enjoy panoramic 360 views of Athens. We'll then head towards the south entrance, passing by the Asklepeion, Odeon of Herodes Atticus, and Dionysus Theatre. Capture more stunning views and delve deeper into the Acropolis's rich history. Please note, even in the morning, it can still be hot and crowded and that even with our skip-the-ticket-line service, there might be some waiting time required for security checks.
