First time visitors
Ron_H, Apr 2024
The ease of entrance into the museum. Then, the audio presentations as we moved about the museum. One final thought. On the third floor of the museum are two video presentations. We highly recommend a first time visitor go to the third floor and view these two presentations first! Then your visit to the museum will make a lot better sense.

"Family Adventure: A Museum Tour Worth Every Penny!"
Erica_M, Apr 2024
This purchase proved to be incredibly worthwhile! My children, aged 12 and 13, thoroughly enjoyed the guided tour. Thanks to the tour's accessibility on their cellphones, they were able to navigate the museum effortlessly based on the provided instructions. Despite the crowd, the skip-the-line tickets swiftly ushered us to the bag checkpoint within the museum premises. The guide offered accurate and descriptive accounts of the history and stories, which captivated our interest throughout the tour.
Response from Host, Apr 2024
Dear Erica, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Your review made our day! It's great to know you and your family enjoyed your visit at the Acropolis Museum and that you found the audio guide informative. We hope to guide you again in your next travel adventures! Best regards, Angeliki, Product Dept.
Don't Miss the Open-Air Archaeology Site Beneath the Museum!
ShaneK_B, Nov 2023
Excellent museum; well worth two or three hours, if not more. Don't miss the archaeological site located in the open-air pavilion beneath the museum -- it's fascinating, and included in your ticket (or is it even free? I don't remember).
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Greetings from Clio Muse Tours! Thank you for your feedback! It's great to know you enjoyed your experience with us. Also, thank you for the tips for fellow travelers! We hope to welcome you back on your next travel adventure. Warm regards, Angeliki, Product Dept

Incredible museum filled with acropolis history. Highly recommend it. Since the museum is focused on the acropolis archeological findings, you will learn everything about the architectural and historical significance of all the ancient buildings

Good if you want to spend the better part of a day in the museum
Thomas_H, Oct 2023
I only recommend this tour if you are looking to spend a strong half day in the museum. The audio doesnt cover every exhibit, but covers enough to keep you moving. It also gives directions to each piece its detailing, which was very helpful to us. Originally we were let to believe we could do this tour in about 2 hrs, but there was no way. Be prepared to spend most of the day here, and if you're not a museum person who wants to spend hours looking at chunks of rock and marble, you may want to pass. If it still sounds good, another positive was even though the description of the items may be short, the audio gave lots of other information. So for instance, if you were looking at a statue of Athena, after the brief description of the statue, the audio would go on for a couple of minutes to talk about Athena in general and what she and her temples meant and represented to the Greeks.
Response from Host, Oct 2023
Dear Thomas, We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to hear that you found the audio tour helpful. We understand that the tour length might be a consideration, especially for those who may not be avid museum enthusiasts. However, we want to assure you that you can skip parts of the tour if you wish and explore at your own pace. You can always revisit the remaining content from the comfort of your home. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind regards, Angeliki, Product Dept.
Disappointing audio
Clarisse_M, Sep 2023

Elyse_B, Sep 2023
Wonderful museum The app did not work. Could not get the audio to work. U don’t need it. Just go read the explanations for all the exhibits or go on one of the museum tours.

Agnes_I, Sep 2023
The museum is amazing and it was good to skip the line but I could not get the audio tour to work. Was able to read the tour but it did take away from the experience

Fast Access But…
Bob_W, Aug 2023
Getting fast access to enter the museum was the only advantage. After that, there was no benefit to having the audio tour. The guidance and map were poorly laid out and there was no easy way to connect the audio with what I was looking at. I should have purchased the audio tour offered by the museum.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Dear Bob, We are really sorry you didn't enjoy your experience with us; at least, the good thing was that you had quick access to the site. Please be a bit more specific on the points you couldn't connect with the audio tour. Sometimes, museums change the items' location without notice and we need to re-adjust our audio tour. If that's the case it's something we can easily fix for our next customers with your help. Please send us more details so we can improve it to support@cliomusetours.com.

The Acropolis Comes to Life with the Viator Audio Tour
Eric_C, Jul 2023
The Acropolis Museum is really a beautiful space that would have been overwhelming had we not opted for this Viator Skip the Line and Audio Tour package. We had a great time exploring the museum. It was also nice to be able to stop the tour and have lunch at the Museum Restaurant to recharge a bit.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Dear Eric, Thank you for your positive feedback! We're thrilled you found the Acropolis Museum beautiful and enjoyed our Skip the Line and Audio Tour package.

Museum is worth the visit. However, it's not a full day, 3 hours at the most but they have a nice restaurant where you can chill for a little while.

A Huge Disappointment
Susan_D, May 2023
Well there literally WAS NO EXPERIENCE. I paid for 4 people, only 2 of us were able to fully download the information. Two of us could not complete the download. The two who were successful HAD NO AUDIO. The download link is only sent 24 hr in advance and guess what… we were traveling and going on other tours so couldn’t attempt the download until we were actually there. SO disappointed and frustrated. I wrote to Clio Muse and they are only refunding a small fraction of what I paid. DON’T book this tour. If you go early in the morning the museum has amazing audio sets that you can borrow for free.

Worth The Time
Peter_L, Jul 2022
Amazing artifacts in a cool (air conditioned) modern building! I suggest doing the guided Walking Tour of the Acropolis before visiting the museum.

Don’t forget an audio guide.
Larissa_W, Jun 2022
I definitely recommend an audioguide. It is full of important information in a concise manner, and the instructions are clear and correct. One and half hours went in a flash. The museum is spacious, so exhibits can be appreciated in detail. Apart from very small children, it is suitable for everyone.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
