Hop-On Hop-Off Bus and Acropolis Museum Ticket

Few explanations during the bus tour. Long route and not very informative. Acropolis Museum is very interesting even for children.

We have benefited from the Bus Service with the purchase of a Mega Pass to Athens which includes 2 days of bus access as well as tickets to the Acropolis Museum. For the bus there are several lines connecting different points on Athens or to different beaches quite far from the city center. During our 2 days of access for the bus we took the beach line to reach the beach of Astri. We had no problems for the driveway but the return was not as easy.. In order to return to our base of departure (i.e. the acropolis) we wanted to take the return bus but the driver at the presentation of our ticket did not want to let us board. We tried to understand the reason for this refusal because we were perfectly in order: the ticket for 2 adults, has the right date, the right bus company... And I quickly realized that the driver did not speak any English and understood nothing, he was unable to understand the ticket and my explanations. He had just convinced himself that we had the wrong company and therefore did not want to let us go up... when absolutely everything was well informed... Visibly annoyed the latter made the decision to leave us on the pavement.. it was the last bus of the day so impossible to take the next one. I immediately called the company (Sight of Athene) to find a solution to return to the city center and they simply invited me to manage with public transport to get back. A shame. Of course I sent an email to Customer Service without receiving any feedback from them. Good job. To sum up, paying you a Service, you are a victim of the incompetence of a bus driver who does not even speak English at a minimum (for a tourist line it is an attic) and in the end you have to fend for yourself when you are left on the pavement. I would not recommend it at all.

Fast and convenient service. The museum was amazing and interesting.the beach tour was 2 hours away but worth it. Join the city tour early in the morning to avoid the crouds

Athens line was great, beaches line lead to not many beaches much traffic and construction (about 30 cranes!) all along the coast. Piraeus line was great except that we were late leaving the Acropolis so next bus was cancelled and the temporary bus stop signs were not on the road so I ended up spending all my time walking between the known stop and searching for the next temporary stop. Debbie (?) guide at Acropolis was amazingly patient with very annoying crowds of tourists. I would recommend this in the city to see the sights. Audio was good in several languages but some input for earphones didn't work. Museum was crowded, unclear about getting ticket and entry. Only first floor had actual artifacts all else were reproductions. I didn't feel the museum was worth it.

Not on schedule, showed up for the port bus at 9 (acropolis), scheduled for 9:30, at 9:15 a port bus shows up, we are told to wait for the 9:30, it's not ours (girl with blue vest at stop, which is common for most stops). No bus at 9:30, no bus at 10, At 10:05 the same bus from the hour before shows up with port people and we finally get on. Same driver as 9:15, why make us wait!!!!! Makes no sense, we are 70 years old why make us wait??? The narrative for all lines is lacking, might be the same for all lines. A real person like they do in New Orleans (hop on hop off), makes a world of difference, otherwise info comes out at the wrong time and you're not sure where to look. I do not recommend this line for your trip!!!
