Epidaurus is only about 2 hours from Athens by car or tour bus, making it one of the most accessible UNESCO World Heritage Sites from the capital. You don’t need to plan an overnight stay, just a day is enough to explore the highlights.
Nestled in the northeastern Peloponnese, Epidaurus is a UNESCO-listed site known for it's excellent acoustics. It was built more than 2,000 years ago and this site is totally doable in a day if you are coming from Athens. Mostly, the tours include a visit to the ancient Mycenae and the seaside town of Nafplio, giving you a full taste of Greece’s historical heartland.
Book your tour now
Epidaurus is about 130–140 km from Athens and takes roughly 2 hours to reach by car, depending on traffic and route.
The most convenient way is by joining a guided day tour, often bundled with Mycenae and Nafplio. Self-driving is also popular, while public buses are limited and less flexible.
Yes! The theatre hosts live performances during the summer Epidaurus Festival, part of the Athens and Epidaurus Festival. The acoustics are still unmatched today.
Yes. You can buy tickets at the entrance, or they’re often included in guided tours. Discounted rates are available for students and seniors.
Yes, you’ll find traditional tavernas and small cafés in nearby Ligourio village—perfect for a post-visit meal.
Definitely. The site is relatively flat and easy to walk around. The theater steps can be steep, so comfortable shoes and a bit of care are recommended.
100% recommendable. A beautiful place, with magnificent views. In addition, our guide Rula, attentive and friendly, was always close to the group, making sure everything was correct.
It was a beautiful day with lovely vieuws. It was more beautiful then i expected. Definitly worth it! The food, people, monks, busdrive, monestry. I enjoyed it all!
I joined a Meteora tour with Riki, and it was one of the highlights of my trip. The guide’s knowledge of the monasteries, local history, and the rock formations made the entire journey fascinating. The pacing was comfortable, with enough time to enjoy the views and take photos without feeling rushed. What really stood out was the passion for the area—it made every stop feel meaningful rather than just a photo opportunity. Overall, it was a well-organized, engaging, and memorable experience that I’d recommend to anyone visiting Meteora.
The organisation of the visit to the Meteora monasteries was impeccable, from the pickup in front of the Larisa metro station to the end. The guide (I apologise for not remembering his name) was particularly well-informed; he answered all the participants' questions competently. The three monasteries visited were well chosen, impressive in their positions, perched on the rocks of Meteora and in terms of the treasures of Orthodox art. The lunch, although frugal, was sufficient.
Eva was a great guide! She showed us the best places, explained everything with great knowledge. The day of many wonders. Thank you for this exceptional professional trip! 🤩🗺️✨ #Guide #Places #Knowledge #Wonders #Trip
The guide Maria is an excellent person, the stop at the restaurant cafe ". Camino" was great, as well as the pizza for dinner. In Meteora the food in "Eufrosino" super rich and The Monasteries are great, a tour that is a must when traveling to Greece.
I liked the service provided by the tour guide, the drivers and the company as a whole. Eva was so kind, considerate , and hospitable. She made sure everyone's needs were met. She answered all our questions with kindness. The tour itself was worth the long bus ride, the views from the bus were breathtaking. Meteora now holds a special place in our hearts. Its beauty and history is something to behold and remembered.
Was a really great experience!!
I loved it! The tour with this company works perfectly, it's well organized and everyone is polite. It takes a long time because of the distance. We visited 3 monasteries and each one took around 1 hour or 40 minutes per monastery. I went for the beautiful scenery, but many people go for the faith. The place is really beautiful and enchanting. The guide spoke excellent English. It was worth it!
I had an amazing trip to Meteora today! Our guide, Kate, was absolutely wonderful – friendly, knowledgeable, and always smiling, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The driver was also excellent, making the journey smooth and comfortable. The monasteries of Meteora were breathtaking – perched high on the rocks with stunning views all around. It truly felt like stepping into another world, full of history, spirituality, and natural beauty. Walking through the ancient paths and seeing how the monasteries were built on such incredible rock formations was unforgettable. I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Greece – it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that combines history, culture, and some of the most magnificent landscapes you’ll ever see!
I really liked the whole trip. The team of our tour leader and the drivers was amazing. They were all really helpful and explained everything as good as they could. I now know a lot about Meteora because Eva (the tour guide) was so great.
A very good experience. Although the trip is quite long, it is worth it. Maria, the tour guide who accompanied us, EXCELLENT! Attentive, friendly and very knowledgeable. Her explanations were great. The tipi buffet lunch was also very good, in a very nice local restaurant.
The visit itself was very good. The setting is spectacular, and the monasteries very interesting. What detracts from the visit is: 1. The food was very improvable 2. The minibus in which we moved around the monasteries was old and, although comfortable, the a/c was not cool enough. 3. The guide did not explain much and showed a certain apathy.
The guide was very good! The food is not what they offered, there was never a bottle of water or slave!!! The audio guide had no information in advance that it was to download, the wifi was not working well in the bus so it was very difficult to download the audio guide. That is not what they promised. I would not recommend it.
The organization is top-notch. The guide and drivers are very professional. Everything is done to make the day go smoothly. We recommend this tour.
A slightly long excursion but well worth it to see the mountains and the monasteries of Meteora. Impressive!
Our guide Eva was really good, she answered every question we had and was particularly benevolent. Leonidas the driver of the bus was really nice too ! The landscapes were breath-taking, and the monasteries were very interesting. The only thing that bothered us during our trip was from the app, because we saw pictures of a minivan and thought we were going to be in a group of 5/6 people. We were in fact on a bus, but as it was half-full, we could sit whenever we wanted and could switch sides to see the view.
The tour was awesome! The drivers are very good given that Athens traffic is not for the faint of heart. Meteora guide was very nice and knowledgable. 10/10
Wonderful tour with informative explanations on Meteora and the monasteries. Our guide, Maria from Meteora Thrones was amazing!! So professional and kind. 100% recommend!
Everything went well. Perfectly organized.
The comfort of the bus, the kindness of the driver and our guide Vassilis, the pace of the day, everything was great!
The team's work has been excellent, thanks to all of you.
Good tour, thanks to our guide Yiannis
Everything: the view, history, and arrangements
Astonishing views! Highly recommended. Quite some travel from Athens but worth it.
Ditch the hassle. Travel to Meteora with luxury coach transfers and enjoy a Greek lunch in Kastraki.

The day tour was truly an outstanding experience. The guide Michael was the best I’ve met in Greece. The coach, driver, and activities were excellent. I highly recommend it 100%, and I will definitely use your travel agency again in the future.
I loved Vasilis, our guide in French. So human and relevant and his knowledge is out if this world. I congratulate myself to have chosen this particular guided tour with this wonderful human being.
Our guide (Michael) was an incredible source of knowledge, providing not only education of this very important site, but making it all lighthearted, fun, and memorable. Our bus driver (Vangelis) operated the bus with skill, precision, and complete professionalism.
Madame Marina! What an EXTRAORDINARY guide! Mythology has become a beautiful story! What a great family experience! Thank you so much!
I rated good as the Guide was very knowledgable, spoke well, and was very nice. Maybe a bit long winded at times (passionate about the information) and because of that we did not have enough time to see as much as I would have liked. I would have rated higher but, I had an issue with my tickets which made me very upset. I purchased the tour with museum entrance fee inculded, but somehow lost the paper tickets the guide provided (2 one for me and one for my friend) while on the archeological site (fell out of pocket). I asked your guide if I could use the electronic ticket in your App that I downloaded, and she said that should be fine, so I did not go back to look for the lost tickets before leaving the archeological site. However, when we got to the museum the tickets that your company provided via the app did not work, they errored out at the door. I was then forced to purchase new tickets, or not get to enter the museum with the rest of my group. (Also, there was a conversationon in Greek between the guide and the museum ticket office about who was going to be responsible for telling me I was being forced to purchase new tickets. They did not realize my friend was fluent in Greek because she was speaking in English to me the whole trip. As soon as they started to go back and forth my friend told me what they were saying so they did not have to, and I did not appreciate that. Just tell me and let me deal with it.) It cost me an extra 40 Euros for what I already paid for, and I feel that I should not have had to do that as I had the electronic tickets from your companys app. I paid so that the tour could continue with out further delay, but would really love to get my money back if possible. The tour guide said she would write the issue up in her post tour report. If not refund, maybe credit on a future tour. I realize that I bear some responsibiity for the ticket loss, but the tickets in your app should have worked. I look forward to hearing from someone in your organization regarding this issue, thank you in advance for any assistance you can offer.
All good. Michael especially was very nice tour guide. We couldn't avail student discount for my daughter so please get in touch as there is nothing on your website even though there is one for students!
Maria was knowledgeable and nice. All in time. Beautiful little town to eat - we went our own on this.
Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, transport was comfortable
No, the guide did not meet the needs of the group.
Problems with the driver. He hinted to me that I might be a possible thief at a bus stop that was not on the itinerary. And he didn't want to let us stay on the bus.
On the day of the trip, there was a strike of Taxi Union of Athens, my hotel was in Glyfida region, so I was unable to get to the meeting point on time without the taxis and I could not get an effective help from the help desk of Headout; they just gave me the phone number of the tour company and told me to call them and tell my problem to them. What is the role of Headout then if I am to deal with a problem like this and if no productive help would be given!
The visit to Delphi is impressive, and all the more so with the explanations we had got in the bus during the trip to Delpi, with an excellent, cultured and entertaining guide.
The tour guide was super nice and knowledgeable! We had a great time!
Our tour guide Dimitrios had a lot of experience and told us a lot about the local myths and history. Great place to lunch and beautiful landscapes!
The bad part was that it was a long tour to Delphi from Athens (not much to do about that), but the guide gave the history of Delphi on the way there as well as explained what we saw on the way there and mentioned the history of the areas we passed. This was both interesting and a good way to pass the time. At the site and the museum tour she had good knowledge of the area and also showed picture of how it could have looked when it was in active use.

We were greeted by a friendly, well-groomed, beautiful young guide named Eleni. She was very happy to answer any questions or concerns we had. We were impressed on her excellent English and soothing tone of voice (what a gem you have working for you). She tirelessly helped whoever was in need throughout the whole long day. . The driver, Thomas was a pleasure to have driving us. He drove excellently and very professionally and we felt safe in his hands. You truly have a gem with him also and hope you take this comment seriously and perhaps give them a pay rise or bonus. Meteora trip was amazing but wouldn't have been without these two gorgeous people.
Well organised enjoyable tour with a knowledgable guide.
Excellent, good driver, friendly guide
Bus comfortable, departure on time, friendly guide Katherina, regular rest stops. We had a nice day, the visit to the monasteries was really worthwhile, it's beautiful.
Very easy and straightforward booking, with clear joining instructions for the Meteora tour. Our guide Konstantina and driver Dimitris were both excellent. Well timed stops for refreshments and comfort breaks. Excellent choice of restaurant for lunch. Comfortable new Mercedes minibus. The site at Meteora was magnificent: a natural wonder! The only thing I didn't like was the fact that women visitors at the monasteries were required to wear an additional long skirt even if they were already wearing full-length trousers: a very antiquated and discriminatory attitude towards women!
Our guide constantina, our driver who is quiet but alert our group and the best part was the climb to the 2 monasteries we visited.
The excursion was really good. The down side was that it rained all day. The views weren't so good except for little glimpses through the clouds every now and then. The coach bus was comfortable and brand new with WiFi. Tour guide was lovely and very upbeat with the moody weather. She said we were lucky to see the monasteries in these conditions. and the driver was amazing in the wet steep mountain curves. The monestaries are beautiful and impressive so well worth the day to visit them. Was not too pleased with the lunch bill from the over priced tourist restaurant we were expected to eat lunch in. My bill as a single person was over 44 euros!! Outrageous. Be sure to ask the prices of everything before ordering lunch!!
Thoroughly enjoyable experience! Really enjoyed his visit to Meteora. We were able to easily recognise our tour guide by their clothing. The tour bus was on schedule throughout the trip, which gave us ample time to explore and enjoy the visits to the monasteries. Great views, great guide, and great food. Would recommend it.
Try it out!!!! The trip to Meteora was worth it. Our guide was super helpful throughout, with a smile on her face throughout! Made our experience really enjoyable.
super nice guiding. Learned many interesting tips and stories about this area. I will recommend this tour.
Great. Easy and comfortable way to visit Meteora and its monasteries.

The excursion to Meteora was really worth it: the scenery is breathtaking and the perched monasteries are just incredible 😍 On the other hand, I'd like to comment on the organization... The bus journey is already very long, but on top of that, our bus broke down on the way 😬 We waited almost an hour for another one to come and pick us up, without any apology or explanation. Luckily, the place was worth it, because it was really magical once we got there ✨
Everything went well. Perfectly organized.

The tickets did not include entry to the Delphi site. 30 minutes were wasted lining up to purchase tickets. We missed visiting the museum as the operator only allowed 2 hours. After contacting support, an explanation was provided as well as partial refund for the tickets
This was a thoroughly enjoyable tour! Our guide George was friendly, punctual and well organised. Communication was excellent right throughout and we were made to feel welcome and relaxed with clear instructions, meeting times and locations given. The group was roughly 40, including children and people requiring mobility assistance. The bus trip was comfortable and informative and about 2.5hrs each way. The site itself is stunning, signed well and the VR element with music was super immersive. The suggested lunch location was tasty ranging €10-20pp.
It was really easy to book and to find the pick up point. We even had to change the date due to our travel plans and that was very easy to do. Michaela, our guide was very informative. Delphi, itself was stunning and I am so glad we went to experience the site. We had a stop in Delphi for lunch and a photo stop in Arachiva. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable day.
Funny tour guide Well organized trip Enough time to spend on site
Pretty much everything. From the guide and driver, to the sights and places.
This was a fantastic day trip to the archeological site and museum. First and foremost, never felt rushed at the site. We had plenty of time to walk around and take in the ruins. The bus ride was comfortable, and major props to the bus driver for getting us around the tight turns, especially in Arachovo. Thanos was our guide, and he was very nice and infromative. I only wish he would snap his fingers every so often (that's an Avengers joke for you). After the site, we had a lovely time at a restaurant to take in drinks with a view. And the VR stuff? It was cool at first, but slowly we got tired of looking at the screens and felt better off just reading the plaques.
Every moment was a joy. For the rest of my life I will have these memories. It was an amazing excursion with a great tour guide, fantastic views and high energy spots within the archeological site.
Our guide Michaela was very friendly and attentive. She was smiling and gave interesting explanations, speaking in English slowly enough so that we didn't get too lost. She always made sure she had everyone on the bus when it left, so it was impossible for the bus to leave without us. On the other hand, the time spent at the site and museum was too short. Just over 2 hours! It wasn't enough for us to take full advantage of the archaeological site and museum as we would have liked, given the size and importance of the place. We would have preferred more time on site, even if it meant less at the other stops. And we didn't know when the meal time would take place. It was a bit vague, and we'd have preferred to have a precise schedule for the day from the outset.
The price with the ticket included was very competitive. I would, however, suggest an earlier departure from Delphi as we only had time to see the ruins. An extra 30 - 45 minutes would also have permitted us to see the museum, so at least 3 hours at the site instead of 2 hours.
The organization in general and the assistance of tour leader michaela who was efficient, attentive, precise, kind and helpful.
The bus broke down on the way back. On the outward journey it took longer to get the tickets from the guide, who had to queue at the ticket office rather than buy them directly. The guide didn't explain how to use the phone, mainly because the virtual reality had to be synchronized with the real view.
The tour was well organised, although it was a bit hard to find the meeting point since there was no info, which sign to look for. We had enough time to enjoy Delfi at our own pace. The guide was very helpful and nice :)
A must-see for history buffs. The virtual tour is not yet fully developed.
Good service, from the App everything clear and simple. Thank you and see you soon.
Michaela and the bus driver were very nice, helpful and open. A very nice day trip.

The views were great, smooth drive there and no issues once there. However pick up point wasn't clear - went to the office that morning to confirm - the information provided by HeadOut was out of date. Pick up is from the office only.
Actual tour was amazing, but we were told 2 different pick up locations and only ended up realising this once we got to the wrong location. Bus didn't turn up so rang the company and they said the pick up address was on the other side of Athens. Had to quickly uber to the right location after being told the wrong one, we were very lucky to not miss it. More information should be provided on this tour as it is quite unorganised.
Our tour guide, George, was so much fun!! Very knowledgeable, funny, and extremely personable!! Our driver, Jimmy, was prompt & safe! Highly recommend this booking. As far as Cape Sounion... nothing short of spectacular!
The experience went great! The guide very friendly and fun, explaining interesting things along the tour. The views of Cape Sunion and the temple of Poseidon at sunset are beautiful. The entrance fee is paid separately, it is 20€ which is worth paying once there.
Everything was on time, clean and well organized. The information said that we would have a guide in the place, but actually the guide explained everything In the bus and left us to explore on our own when we reached the archeological site.
Great excursion, with the guide Geoge, who was super friendly and gave great information about the excursion. The entrance to the temple is worth it, you can explore a lot and take lots of beautiful pictures. The stay of over 2 hours is perfectly adequate. The bus transfer is very pleasant.
My expectations were met and history at the site is very interesting. The guide at the tour had a lot of history knowledge (that I experienced in a conversation on the bus)...so I guess a lot of your other tours he can share more of his knowledge than on this sunset tour 😊).
Very well-planned trip with a kind and interesting tour guide. The ride down was beautiful and the Temple of Poseidon was terrific. We stayed until just after sunset which was perfect!
The ride was through a breathtaking picturesque beachfront road once we got outside of Athens metropolitan area, which came as a pleasant surprise! The tour guide 'Thanos' was very friendly and helpful who explained stories from Greek mythology and made the trip memorable!
Very interesting information and the guide was educational! The views were spectacular and so beautiful...the temple itself is breathtaking and so is the sunset. Definitely recommend!
Absolutely loved it! The tour guide was funny and handsome which is a killer combo! 💙🇬🇷
Amazing tour guide and well organized!
The experience was wonderful. The downside was that we paid for a guided tour and the guide only explained a couple of things on the bus on the way to Cape Sounion. He gave us an audio guide on the bus that explained things about Athens and the sites we passed through before arriving at the cape. This audio guide in Spanish (in our case) spoke very poorly and was difficult to understand. The problem is that we paid for the guide to give us a tour of the cape and when we got off the bus the guide explained that he would wait for us on the bus until the sunset was over (20:20) and from there we would have 10 minutes to return to the bus.
The bus drive was very comfortable. Our guide Sotiris was very helpful and was always available for questions. The trip has been organized very well! The pick up station was easy to find. The sunset was very beautiful!
Communication was confusing - given two different pick up locations so had to go to the office to clarify the day before. The trip itself was long but you got to see the coast and various holiday resorts outside of Athens. More information along the route about these would be good. No stops on the way - it was a long wait for the actual sunset before rushing to leave on the coach again. Only seating was in the Temple restaurant which was very basic, busy and expensive. Overall not a bad excursion but not the best.
The experience went well but we could not go through the coast road because of the fires. I think they should have warned us earlier so that we could have made our own decision.
Pick up point easily to found, very nice, helpfull guide ( Sotris and Co-guide and driver) , good informations: a very nice trip for sunset -lovers.
The tour that we had booked stated that entry to the temple was included, but when we arrived we were told we had to pay an extra 20EURO to enter the temple. When we challenged the tour guide, he clearly knew of the issue and advised that this was a "misunderstanding" on the inclusion list. This was highly frustrating for us and in the end we felt we had been taken to the location under the false pretence of included temple entry. In the end we reluctanctly paid for entry as it was a one of visit that we woudlnt repeat, but we felt almost "held captive" by the location. The bus ride and the temple were good though, but we felt bad for the tour guide as he was under pressure from lots of our group as a result of the "misunderstood" listing, and has clearly faced this issue in the past as his response was well rehearsed.
Excellent service and bus trip and the sunset is awesome. Only bad but is the cafe there, which isn't the organisers' fault, but the food is not great and the service is terrible.
The overall experience was good and worth the amount spent. Cape Sunion was beautiful during the Sunset. Actually the road to Cape Sunion has picturesque view. The temple of Poseidon is mostly in ruins and pretty similar though much smaller than what you see in Acropolis or Parthenon. But the surroundings are beautiful.
Tour guide is very clear in his communication and the whole experience is good.

We really enjoyed our tour, it is quite complete and Cristopher, the guide, and Manos, the bus driver, were helpful and kind.
Very beautiful, magnificent archaeological sites and also the city of Nafplio. Kind and knowledgeable guide. Only downside, headout that says Mycenae tickets are included but not true. Suggest to change info on site.
In addition to difficulties in using the audio guide, purchased ticket for excursion including lunch arrived in Nafplio lunch was not provided.
We enjoyed this day very much. Highly recommended to visit archaeological sites as important as those of Athens.
Irene, the guide, was charming. She spoke English and French. We arrived well in advance at the meeting point and she was already there. At the archaeological sites they give you just enough time to see them. They give you a guide which is a mobile app, in the language you want. It works well. Also, Irene gives explanations when you go on the bus. On the other hand, in Nafplion the time they give you is very short, they should at least give you one more hour. We took a sandwich with us, but if you ate in a restaurant, I doubt that you could see anything. And it is a very pretty coastal town. I wanted to go up to the top of the village and take a walk by the sea.
We booked the tour of Mycenae, Nafplio, Epidaurus and Corinth( 20 minutes) . Our escort, though young, was attentive to everyone's needs. The time allotted for each stop was fair, however I would have preferred more time in Nafplio to be able to see the castle and fortress which, unfortunately are not visible in an hour and 30 being on high ground. Tickets to the sites are not included, and a tablet is provided on the bus with information about the sites you are going to visit, so you can unravel your visit more independently. The bus was comfortable. For us it was a nice day and above all it is a very convenient solution to be able to see the main sites without having the "stress" of the car and finding the way by yourself. Also I had found an offer with very good price.
The tour was perfect, I want to highlight the role of the guide, super nice, friendly and willing to help. All excellent !!!!
Very kind and very detailed guide . Absolutely recommended
Muy gentil y solicito el guía. Buen itinerario, manejo del tiempo y precio. Las tablas mejorables!

It's was fast and we skipped queue and audio experience was good . Prepaid booking helped us to save time and we had spent more time for experience
It was a lovely painless expierence. The ticketing app worked well and we breezed through to the main event. We have a 7 year old and the pacing and movement of the venue worked well for him
The history of the place, it's amazing. I loved the buildings, the nature, the view from there to the city, the sense of timelessness.
The amazing ancient buildings. They were used for about 1000 years. The ruins at the base of the Acropolis were interesting.
Pre-booking the tickets is an absolute must. When we arrived early in the morning, the lineup for tickets was ready snaking down the sidewalk. We just walked up with our e-tickets and strolled in. We were able to tour the entire Acoprolis at our leisure and stay as long as we wanted. It is well labelled, the audio guide is thorough and we truly enjoyed this once in a lifetime experience.
With a little research/ reading about the area and then using the recorded tour, I had a great experience and walked away well learned. I also saved some money in regards to a $100 tour to use in other areas of the city.....for more delicious food! God knows those calories will stay with me longer than my memories. That is why I take a lot of pictures. 😹
My trip to Athens lasted only 3 days, but it was outstanding! On the first day we visited the ancient Agora during the morning, and from mid-afternoon the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sunius. Acropolis tickets included everything (except the museum): from the Parthenon to the Theater of Dionysus. I strongly recommend going to see the Acropolis very early, such as at 8 o'clock or a half hour before opening, otherwise you will find a lot of tourists as happened to me. Then again, the Temple of Poseidon is the Acropolis only the most visited places in all of Greece. As for the Temple of Poseidon, it all went perfectly! From the very nice and helpful guide, the relaxing bus ride to the spectacle the temple had to offer. It was very windy, both at the Acropolis and Cape Sunio, but the weather was still great! As for the service in general, it was really excellent, accurate and fun. I highly recommend this ticket if you want to have a beautiful memory of Greece!
My trip to Athens lasted only 3 days, but it was outstanding! We visited the Ancient Agora during the morning on the first day and the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sunius from mid-afternoon until evening. Tickets to the Acropolis included everything from the Parthenon to the Theater of Dionysus. As for the tour to the Temple of Poseidon, it was outstanding! From the super nice and helpful guide, to the comfortable bus ride of about 2 hours to the wonderful sight of the temple on the promontory. It was windy, both at the Acropolis and Cape Sunio. There were many people at both places, the Acropolis and the Temple of Poseidon being the most visited monuments in all of Greece. For the Acropolis, I highly recommend going very early, such as 8 o'clock or arriving as early as half an hour before the opening, otherwise you will find a lot of tourists as happened to me. As for the service in general, it is really great and fun! I highly recommend this ticket!
The Acropolis was amazing. Booked the earliest session which was the best time. The hoo on and hoo off bus was seem less and let us explore so much of Athens at very little cost. The whole process was so easy and stress free.
Although lift was not working and I mobility problems, the staff were exceptionally helpful, enabling us to jump queue. We took it slowly resting when we could. But was so worth it amazing.
I loved everything about the easiness of booking it, the place was not crowded. It was very warm and I found the audiobook very helpful. I also like the sunset but you have to buy extra ticket for the temple of Poseidon
The walk with a lot of wind beautiful temples historic buildings.We entered at 10.45 and the queue was small waited like 20 minutes. And the poseidon temple was stunning like the sunset. The Bus was easy to find and very comfortable and refreshing after the heat. You could pay 20€ to go to the poseidon temple close up, but you're close enough in the free area to enjoy the stunning sunset. There's also a good Restaurant and a free toilet.
Smooth . Quick . Last minute yet done. So very happy to deal with the site. I think they are doing good work to help everyone
The organized route to separate in and out tourists. The timing is perfect for a tour. The scene in the Olympics ceremony is right in front of us.
An unforgettable journey through history! The Acropolis tour was a perfect blend of breathtaking views, ancient wonders like the Parthenon and Erechtheion, and insightful storytelling from our guide. We chose the 6 pm time slot, and it was perfect, was not too crowded. Standing atop Athens, surrounded by ruins and mythology, made it truly magical. A must-do experience for anyone visiting the city!
We liked paths leading all the way to the top. They were easily accessable and easy to walk along. The views were spectacular!
Amazing site to visit! Walking around the Parthenon gave me a feeling of un explained gratitude towards the ancient people who once rulles this land. Goosbumps!
I arrived to the Acropolis at 7.30 a.m for my 8a.m booking. There are various shop type stalls around to purchase water, drinks, food etc... water is 50cent for a 500ml bottle which is very reasonable. There is a toilet at the entrance, underground which I recommend using because there are no toilets or they are out of service once you enter. The toilet is free but it is recommend to give a small tip for upkeep. Entering the Acropolis was easy. The queue does get large but if you have a pre booked ticket you'll be fine and in quickly. You can buy tickets on the day but that is a slower process. Probably only ideal if you need a student discount. Going early is essential in my opinion as it was still warm, sunny but the UV is much lower. Despite this I needed to top up my sunscreen as you do spend approx 1-2 hours there and that is just walking up and down, getting photos and reading all about the Acropolis. You get great views of the city and an excellent historical education and appreciation as you walk around the Acropolis. There is a lack of shade so be prepared for that.
We really enjoyed the experiences , the Acropolis was incredible to look around , then later that day we met George . George was very informative on the way to the temple of posiden along with being very funny and allowing many photo opportunities. the views were amazing would definitely recommend to others.
The architecture was incredible and so moving. The process to buy tickets online and the overall experience was well worth the money and heat we visited it in! Would highly recommend, an absolute must when visiting Athens and a highlight of our trip!
My acropolis experience was excellent, from the ease of purchasing my tickets to entry with absolutely no waiting in line. Staff at the acropolis was very pleasant and hospitable. They answered all my questions. I would definitely come back to visit . Thank you for a wonderful visit that I will have fond memories of of.
Was a great experience . Although it was very hot I managed to climb up the track to see the beautiful acropolis in all its beauty. I have been to it before on my last trip to Athens 7 years ago but needed to go again. Was just magical and also the view of Athens. It is one my most favourite cities!!!! And the hop in and off bus was great too. Also off at the Olympic stadium which was so cool to see :)
Because it was so hot I think the Acropolis was probably not as busy as it could have been so that was good. It was incredible for me to stand on something so old and one of the wonders of the world.
Booking through Headout made the amazing Acropolis visit effortless! It was a great experience in such a historical monument at the middle of the high season. The combo hop-on hop-off bus was great too : clean, friendly staff offered great tips, and the audio guide enriched our trip. Highly recommend for a smooth Athens adventure!
Fantastic experience! The bus is located directly at the Piraeus port exit, frequency about 30 minutes. Allows you to see the Acropolis on your own, with digital skip-the-line tickets and cross the Red Line to the center of the capital. Practical, fast, inexpensive for families with children who want an experience with flexible pace.
Two iconic Greek sites, one great price—explore ruins by day and watch a legendary sunset by night.

The organization of the 2-day tour was excellent, complying with the schedule and the programmed plan. The guide of the first activity (Ioannis) gave us very detailed and interesting explanations (in English). The hotel was correct. The visits to the monasteries are extraordinary. Only comment that for the activity of the second day (in Spanish) from 13:00 to 18:00, they did not leave any break for lunch and they should have warned about it in advance.
My tour was in Spanish, it was a 2 day tour and in the end it turned into 1. What it says on the internet is not what I bought, I only enjoyed the second day.
This was a fantastic trip from start to finish. Great communication at all points of the trip made the journey seamless. We opted for the 3 star hotel which was a great hotel with very good breakfast included. The two included tours, run by Meteora Thrones, were excellent. It was a bit foggy for our sunset tour but our guide Yannis made it fun and was very informative and flexible to suit the weather. We had opted for the hike on day 2 but due to the weather we couldn't do it. This actually worked out very well! We did the Monastery Tour in the van in the morning and then asked to be dropped in Kastraki when the tour ended. We then had about 4 hours free time so we hiked up to Holy Trinity Monastery (which was not on our tour) starting from Kastraki and hiked back down to Kalabaka to finish, eat and meet the minivan. In the end, we felt we had the best of both worlds. The minivans were excellent as were our drivers and guides (sorry, I can't remember the name of the young lady guide on Day 2). Would definitely recommend this tour and doing two days.
Enjoy an overnight Meteora tour from Athens featuring all six monasteries, a cozy hotel stay, and flexible hiking or sightseeing options.
