      Temple of Zeus Set on a riotous journey back in time to learn about the turbulent 700-year history of the construction of the temple and its fate throughout the centuries. This is also a perfect chance to freshen up your Greek Mythology and listen to the story of the Great Deluge, the divine wrath that fell upon humankind on a day when Zeus felt kind of stormy! Temple of Apollo Delphinios Gazing at the ruins of the temple of Apollo Delphinios, learn how god Apollo earned his nickname and became associated with dolphins in Greek mythology. The site is also home to many brutal stories, including a gory bloodbath upon which the city was founded by Theseus, one of the city’s legendary kings. Roman Bathhouse At close proximity to Olympieion, you will end your walk in front of the balaneion to discover the relics of an ancient bathhouse. You will learn about the rejuvenating benefits of public baths and how the Greeks and the Romans ritualized the act of bathing turning it into an integral part of their everyday life.

      A Brilliant Self-Guided Audio Tour
      This audio guide is a must-have if you’re visiting Kerameikos! The narration was engaging and well-researched, giving me a deeper appreciation of the ancient cemetery and its significance in Athenian history. The convenience of having the guide on my phone was a huge plus—no extra devices to carry, and I could start and stop the audio whenever I wanted.

      A great experience!!
      Overall, it was a great experience! The audio guide was easy to use, and I appreciated how it walked me through the archaeological site and the museum. The narration struck a nice balance between historical depth and accessibility, so it didn’t feel overwhelming. The booking process was also fine and without any issues.

      Great experience in Athens
      The self-guided audio tour of Kerameikos was a solid addition to my visit. The content was clear and informative, helping me understand the history of the site and its significance. I only had a little issue with audio but the support team solved it in seconds after calling them. I would recommend this for those who love history and don't like to rush!

      Self guided Audio tour of Ancient Agora
      Easy to download audio guide with plenty of instructions and guidelines to explain what to do. Very in depth audio of each point of interest. We did however find to hard to know if we were in the correct location to match audio. Quite often would not listen to the entire audio about the location, as we had a tight time frame. Location numbers would be helpful

      Disappointed
      Appalling service from Tripadvisor. Booked this and paid over $100 aud with no clear instructions. Walked to Acropolis and had to pay an extra 40 euro to go inside as the ticket was from 8-9am. This was only specified in a small heading on the bottom of a page! Tourist trap!

      The museum was worthwhile but we should have just pre booked the entrance tickets
      My wife and I toured the museum at the end of our travels. We had prebooked the tickets with the audio guide program online . We were not able to download the entrance tickets until the prior evening. The instructions were not very good. First we had to download an app and sign up. We then looked for this booking but it did not show up. I texted the tour operator and in a while our trip showed up in the app. There is no human guide but we were hopeful about the audio guide. Perhaps we were not patient enough but after about 10 minutes listening to it at the museum we gave up using it. We should have just gone with the museum’s audio guide. The museum itself was quite interesting.

      A must-see museum
      This is an amazing museum for kids 10 and up. My daughter loves Greek history and mythology and she was in heaven. The restoration to the sites on the Acropolis is amazing. A must see in Athens. Tip: If you do not get the tickets in your US email in-box, just call the number. Because of data privacy, the tour company sometimes does not get US email addresses.

      Don’t Waste Your money
      Don’t spend the money. Audio tour at the Acropolis was so bad in terms of directions and the commentator droning on and on, we never used it for the rest of the attractions. Waste of money.

      Worth a Visit
      I felt this museum was well worth the visit. It was not that big with a smaller upper level filled with pottery. It was air-conditioned and comfortable on a 100° day. Many Sculptures and artifacts from Athens and the surrounding area from 550- 150 BC approx. There were no maps of the actual museum layout on the wall or otherwise. The museum store had more books than usual for a museum store. Nice cafe.

      THis is a one you can not miss. Just amazing history, objects and art. The Anthiokera mechanism is just amazing. Hard to understand how someone could build this device that long ago.

      Avoid HEADOUTKEYTOURS
      "Headout" "Keytours" misleading information on Audio part of tour. Thus site pops up 1st with every search BUT is not the official Acropolis tour site. Audio information lacking.

      Hugely disappointed!!
      We booked our Acropolis Tix with Clio Muse via Get Your Guide months before our trip. We chose the 8am entry to avoid the crowds. For some silly reason they don't send you the tickets with your receipt but via email the day before your tour. We were on a 30 hour flight from Australia without phone service, arriving in Athens the night before our Acropolis visit. We were twentieth in line at 7:30 am, waited nearly an hour and then were refused entry, being told to come back in the afternoon. We showed her our original 8am booking on our receipt but bad luck, we were turned away. I managed to phone Clio Muse and we were offered 10 am tix instead of the 1pm they sent us. So we queued up again with the hoards and were herded along (see pics). So upset! Totally ruined the first day of our holiday. DON'T BOOK WITH THEM!!

      Easy to use and interesting stories
      Once you download the app and your audio guides and ticket it’s all pretty easy to use. The guides were very clear and easy to listen to. It was easy to pause or skip around if you wanted to. Inevitably, the routes around some of the sites had been changed with works going on, but the interactive map in the app made it straightforward to work out where you should be and how to get there. All in all, we’d thoroughly recommend these guides and tickets. One improvement would be to have the ticket accessible from within the guides themselves so that you don’t have to go back to find your ticket once you’ve followed the directions to the site. There was an option to download the PDF ticket but we couldn’t get that to work.

    The self guided tour was the best for our group. We loved the freedom to see it ourselves. Do some research before you go and it is a great time.
