Booking FAQs

Have your passport, ID, and student ID ready for a seamless experience. Wear comfortable shoes, as the sites have uneven terrain and involve a fair amount of walking. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and a water bottle, especially during warmer months, as many areas have little shade.

The Acropolis has limited accessibility for visitors with mobility challenges. While there is an elevator near the South Slope entrance, its operation is managed entirely by the venue and may not always be available. This tour does not use the elevator entrance, so guests who rely on elevator access may be unable to meet the group after entering. For this reason, elevator-dependent visitors are not recommended to join this tour. The Acropolis Museum and Stoa of Attalos Museum are fully wheelchair accessible with ramps and elevators. The Temple of Poseidon is not wheelchair accessible due to uneven terrain and stairs. The Ancient Agora has partial accessibility, with a ramp at the north entrance and some manageable pathways. Plaka (Old Town) is not fully wheelchair accessible, with cobbled streets and slopes, but some areas have step-free access.

Large bags and luggage are not permitted at the sites due to security restrictions. Pets are not allowed, except for service animals with the proper documentation.
