Acropolis Pass - information required please

by SummerHighlandFalls Online Now Jan 29, 2007 at 4:31 PM

Hello, I understand that there is an Acropolis pass which allows access to the Acropolis as well as other sights such as Ancient Agora, the Roman Agora, Keramikos etc. Is this the correct name for this pass, where can I purchase it and how long does it last. Any details on this will be much appreciated. Many Thanks Tony

    The combo ticket is (or it least it was last May) 12 euros. It can be bought at the entrance to any of the covered sites. We bought ours at the entrance to the Roman Agora where there was no line. Great value and very convienet. Enjoy! David

    Just back from Athens - the combi pass costs Euros 12 and supposedly lasts for 4 days. However, ours weren't dated, so we actually used them over three weeks!! Until the end of March, the national sites and museums are free on Sundays, so we didn't actually use a tear-off for every site. Therefore, we were able to visit a couple of sites (Agora and Keramikos) twice. The tear-off part for the Acropolis is on one end of the ticket, then there is a picture and then four (or is it five) other tear-off sections. This means that while you can visit the other sites more than once, you can only visit the Acropolis once, as it has a special dedicated and labelled tear-off section. However, we managed to persuade the attendant to let us in again, as it was at opening time just after Christmas and hardly anyone was around. I can't remember the proper name of the combi-ticket but it is readily available and advertised at each of the sites.

    Hi, Very accurate tips above. I'd like to add that ISIC students pay only 6 euros. Enjoy and don't miss any site of the tour. Rafa
