Convenience to skip the line, amazing vistas, but crowded, despite the 8am tour. The tour narration was very informative.
Times tickets = worth it, Audio Guide = trash

Worth it to make sure we could get timed tickets, and not get scammed when buying these tickets. You don’t meet up as a group - you get your tickets and go solo. The audio guide is awful.

A great self paced tour that should be a must for all to visit Athens. An amazing part of the world that is constantly undergoing maintenance for the future.
