    De audio volgde onze weg niet, liep vaak vast. De massa mensen op de heuvel maakte het soms erg gevaarlijk op het oneffen terrein.

    Mit heißem Wetter ist echt ganz schwer hoch zu gehen, kein Baum, kein Schatten, viele Besucher, Warteschlange ist unter Sonne schwer zu vertragen, aber einmal es geht.

    We enjoyed this trip, it was busy but the staggered entrance times helped control this so it wasn't overwhelmingly busy.. We didn't have a guide but there was an online self guided tour we could access and information boards. Entry was well organised and the queue moved quickly once our time slot opened. Once in you could spend as long as you wanted at the site. Transfers were not available from our hotel but we used Uber which worked fine.

Privat rundtur i Athen med besøk i Akropolis og Plaka – halv dag

De gamle grekerne etterlot seg en skattkiste av monumenter, statuer og gjenstander i Athen. Og på denne turen får du oppleve alle høydepunktene med en privat guide. Dere besøker blant annet den romerske agoraen, Hadrians bibliotek, Plaka-området og den UNESCO-listede Akropolis. Vassiliki, en av våre dyktige lokalguider, sier: "Akropolis betyr "høy by", og det refererer vanligvis til enhver bosetning bygget på toppen av en ås. Du vil finne mange byer i Hellas som har en akropolis, men Akropolis i Athen er absolutt den mest kjente."Du starter med en guidet tur på Akropolis – med gå-forbi-køen-billetter er det ingen ventetid. Nyt wow-faktor-utsikten over Athen ved Areopagos – en steinete høyde der legenden sier at de greske gudene ville holde hoffet. La guiden bringe historien til live mens du beundrer gamle landemerker som den romerske agoraen, Dionysos-teatret og de fortsatt stående søylene i Asklepieion og Parthenon.Deretter går turen videre til byens Instagram-verdige gamle bydel, Plaka – hovedstadens mest tiltalende og historiske bydel. Gågatene er alltid fulle av en blanding av lokalbefolkningen og besøkende, og er fulle av tavernaer med bordene ute i gatene. Vassiliki sier: "Athenerne kaller dette området «gudenes nabolag», ettersom det har vært bebodd siden antikkens Hellas. Faktisk viser utgravninger at gateplanet knapt har endret seg siden antikken."
