Things to do in Acropolis Museum
Built just a few meters from the sacred rock itself, the Acropolis Museum showcases ancient Greek civilisation at its best. The museum’s exterior is as impressive as the wealth of exhibits inside. Upon entering, glass floors reveal an ancient archaeological excavation site. Continue your journey and discover elegant Caryatids, friezes that paint vivid scenes of Athenian life, and a head statue of Alexander the Great. A top sight is the Parthenon Gallery where grand marble sculptures stand against a backdrop of panoramic views of the ancient Acropolis and modern-day Athens. During evening visits, the statues shine in the sunset’s glow. After exploring, the terrace cafe invites you to savour Greek flavours overlooking the Acropolis and the gift shop on the first floor is where you can pick up some souvenirs.

Reviews Acropolis Museum
“Friendly staff, lots of people , lots to see. Double payment required for Museum as well as Archaelogical ruins or Pantheon was expensive.”
“Efficient office issuing instructions & audio, so that we could hear our guide throughout the tour. Only downside was no toilets at Athena Travel after journey in, but lovely cafe Caelum down the road for breakfast. Very knowledgeable guide who paced it well & stopped for talks in shade! Fab tour!”
“Our tour guide was great. Very informative.”
“Tour guide was the best ever, even though it was quite hot that day, she took her time and made sure everyone was ok. Very informative and also offered her opinion, which I happen to enjoy getting a local point of view.”
