Absolutely true. In April, 2024 I went to the museum in the early afternoon. Long lines for those who did not have a ticket. Glad I went to the museum first before going to the Acropolis.

Went to the Acropolis last week Wednesday super early, bought the tickets online and arrived at the entrance around 7:45 and there was a long line already, waiting for the gates to be open, though I guess its not as crazy during the latter part of the day. At around 10:45 a.m. we went to the Acropolis Museum and it was already crowded (by us😅) and temp was @ 37 degrees.

I've seen there is a big push against tourism in Athens now, both from the government and the locals. This is concerning to me, because I have a trip planned there in a few months. Apparently there have even been some theeats against tourists. Do I need to be worried?

Dont worry, the media like to over dramatize, nothing has changed in Greece, everyone is welcome :-)

Their website states that reduced tickets for non EU students can only be purchased on-site. Do you happen to know if we can purchase at the end of the day for entrance the following morning and then enter on the skip the line entrance?
@GreeceExplained4 ай бұрын
Yes that would work. But you take the risk that the timeslot is sold out by then.

Either you buy him a normal full priced ticket, or you buy a 50% discounted ticket in person at the museum. But in that case you will have to enter through the door for those who dont have tickets yet.
