Fuimos ayer. Entramos a las 10:00 aprox y nos fuimos 11:30/12:00 aprox. El lugar no tiene audio guía. Su organización turística es más rústica, no tan explotada. Nos bajamos una guía en el celular y fuimos recorriendo la acrópolis escuchando la explicación. Es imponente el tamaño. Buenas vistas para fotografías. La recomendación es ir temprano, subir hasta el Partenón para sacarse fotos sin mucha gente y luego bajar a cada punto (cuando la gente está recién subiendo). La entrada sale €30 por persona, la compramos el día que entramos. Se puede Comprar online pero no logramos la conexión. No vimos baños. Antes de entrar hay un lugar para comer o tomar algo (básico).

Fui el 20 de Julio de 2025, ese dia hizo demasiado calor el recorrido por la acrópolis fue un poco a las apuradas porque estar bajo el sol no era nada agradable. Pero si hablamos de las ruinas de lo que fueron esos templos y todo su entorno y nos imaginamos el pasado, es un lindo ejercicio y una experiencia inolvidable :)

Para mí es un lugar que no puedes dejar de conocer, tiene una linda vista de toda la ciudad, una historia importante, un lugar que te puede traer literalmente, yo estuve para el domingo que es gratis entonces tiene más gente que de costumbre, las personas que trabajan ahí son muy hamables. Ame mi experiencia por el templo.
