Really special museum that could easily take 4-5 hours. Don’t miss the excavations underneath that are included in admission.
Dear Brad, Thank you for your great review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your visit to the Acropolis Museum. It truly is a remarkable place, offering such a rich journey through ancient history, and we completely agree that there is so much to discover. Thank you as well for highlighting the fascinating excavations beneath the museum—such a unique part of the experience and a wonderful recommendation for future visitors. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again on another experience with Keytours. Kind regards, The Keytours Team
The museum was great the reason for 2 stars is we paid for the app voice guided tour. The app didn’t work after many attempts. The museum has voice guided tour for free. We paid for too much for the tour as a result. I would recommend the museum not the guided app.
Dear Randy, We’re very glad to hear that you enjoyed the Acropolis Museum—it truly is one of the highlights of Athens. That said, we are concerned to read about the issue you experienced with the audio tour app. Our app is used daily by many travelers without issues, so what you describe is not representative of the usual experience. In most cases, difficulties are related to device settings (such as permissions, connectivity, or incomplete download prior to arrival), rather than the app itself. We also provide clear instructions in advance to help ensure smooth use on-site. Regarding the museum’s audio offering, it is important to clarify that the official museum content and our self-guided audio tour are different products, with distinct narratives and structure. Our audio tours are designed by licensed experts to provide a more in-depth and curated storytelling experience. We regret that you were unable to fully benefit from the app during your visit. Our support team is always available to assist in real time, and we would have been more than happy to help resolve the issue on the spot. Your feedback is valuable, and we will continue refining both our instructions and user experience to ensure every traveler can enjoy the full value of the service. Kind Regards, KeyTours team
Museum is amazing. Much better to be visited before Acropolis. The app audio guide doesn’t work well and asks too much time to be managed. To be absolutely avoided is the cafeteria on the ground floor. A coffee espresso in paper cup without any service 4€ is more expensive than any airport in EU…even worse 9€ for a very basic slice of cake.
Super easy to use. This was a last minute decision to go to the museum. Museum was very interesting. For audio tour you will need to bring your own headphones
Dear Chad, Thank you so much for your review! We’re really happy to hear that your visit to the Acropolis Museum was enjoyable and that the ticket and audio tour app were convenient and easy to use, even last minute. It is indeed a great tip to remember headphones for the audio part—thank you for mentioning that to help future travelers. We appreciate you choosing this experience with KeyTours, and we hope to welcome you again on another tour in Greece!
My wife and I enjoyed looking at all the artifacts of the ancient culture. Furthermore, visiting the museum In the afternoon was a delight with the air condition. It gave us an opportunity to get out of the heat and see all the ancient artifact within the museum
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're so glad you and your wife enjoyed exploring the ancient artifacts and found the museum visit both enriching and refreshing—especially as a nice break from the heat. It's always a pleasure to know our guests have a meaningful and comfortable experience. We hope to welcome you again on another journey through history!
Lots of history in the museum. The audio tour is a little difficult to get going, but once you figure it out it is very nice as there isn't a lot of information on the exhibits. The second floor is impressive with the sculptures, metopes (relief panels), friezes, and pediment carvings, originally part of the temple of Athena on the Acropolis in Athens. You will need to go through security, if you can avoid taking big bags that would be ideal, but there is a place to store them very easily.
Thank you for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the museum and its incredible collection, especially the impressive second-floor exhibits featuring original sculptures, metopes, friezes, and pediment carvings from the Temple of Athena. The audio tour adds great insight and context, especially since the exhibit descriptions are minimal. We hope you had a fantastic time in Athens!
We had a little trouble with our timing and we were only able to visit for 45 mins that day. We’d already booked a tour of the Acropolis. We tried to come back on Sunday…but the line was incredibly long. Would’ve loved to get more time there! A beautiful well done museum!
Museum is awesome and a must see. Recommend visiting museum before touring the Acropolis and Parthenon. Audio Tour app is not the easiest to use and could use some work, but ultimately it got the job done.
World class museum facility, visited by 930 am successfully avoided long lines and crowds entering. Used the Rick Steve's application for the acropolis but used the linked audio for the museum ticket which was not as good as Rick Steve's. The linked museum audio was a bit confusing.
The museum itself was a 5000/10 if not more. The audio tour was very difficult to follow and repeated itself. I will, however, chalk part of this up to user issues. These problems distracted from the beauty of the experience. I will return on a different day with a live guide. Thank goodness I did the Acropolis tour in advance of the museum tour. Wow! Amazing!
