An interesting visit need plenty of time and buy a guide book before you start! A good museum shop and restaurant in the basement The statue and bronze sections very interesting.

Depending on the level of interests, the guide will engage accordingly. Great knowledge gap to have pieced history with vague knowledge
Jo our guide was fantastic. I would recommend this tour. She packed an amazing amount of information in three hour tour!
I am not sure, if this is the best collection of the Ancient Greek art in the world, but surely it is one of the top. We had to visit it 3 times (!), because one just can’t “digest” so much artifacts at ones. We were overwhelmed with impressions.
Hello, I visited, for the second time, this beautiful museum last week. It is considered, with good reason, one of the richest works (most of them very ancient and well preserved) to admire. Absolutely not to be missed and photograph room by room. The Top, for me, is the huge statue of Zeus and the hall full of wonderful busts!
Fantastic place to visit especially on a very hot day. Nota was an amazing guide and extremely knowledgeable
