Acropolis Combo Tickets: Athens Access ✨
Visit the iconic Acropolis together with the Acropolis Museum, more archaeological sites or a hop-on hop-off bus tour - with one booking instead of separate purchases and multiple queues.
Important update: the official Athens combined ticket
The official Athens combined ticket (the Acropolis plus six other archaeological sites, valid for five days) was discontinued in 2025. It no longer exists and cannot be bought on the official platform.
If you want to see more than the Acropolis, you can book one of today’s combo options via Headout instead: the Acropolis & Parthenon + Acropolis Museum ticket from about 75 €, the Athens Multipass with the Acropolis and five more sites (valid for 3 days) from about 135 €, or the Acropolis + 2-day hop-on hop-off bus combo from about 51 €.

What is an Acropolis combo ticket?
An Acropolis combo ticket bundles entry to the Acropolis with other attractions into a single purchase. It’s designed for visitors who want to see more than just the Acropolis. The government’s official combined ticket was discontinued in 2025, so today combo tickets are offered by third-party providers such as Headout - how the official platform works is explained in our guide to the official Acropolis website.
Validity depends on the product: the Athens Multipass is valid for 3 days, and the hop-on hop-off combo includes 2 days of bus travel, so there’s no pressure to rush between sites. Each site can only be entered once per ticket. Morning at the Acropolis, afternoon at the Ancient Agora, next day at the Temple of Olympian Zeus - a multi-day pass works around your schedule.
Even with a combo ticket, you need to select a specific date and time slot for your Acropolis entry, as the authorities manage crowd flow with timed entry.
Which Athens sites can you combine with the Acropolis?
The former official combined ticket covered the seven sites below. Today you can visit several of them with the Athens Multipass (the Acropolis + 5 sites) or with individual tickets - check the product page for the exact list of included sites.
Acropolis & Slopes
The main attraction. Every Acropolis combo includes entry to the Acropolis site, including all key monuments such as the Parthenon, Erechtheion, Temple of Athena Nike, and Propylaea, as well as the surrounding slopes with the Theatre of Dionysus and Odeon of Herodes Atticus.
Ancient Agora
The civic and commercial center of ancient Athens. The well-preserved Temple of Hephaestus is the highlight, surrounded by reconstructed stoas and column bases. This is where Socrates spent much of his time.
Roman Agora
Built when Rome controlled Greece, the Roman Agora served as the commercial center of imperial Athens. The most notable structure is the Tower of the Winds - an octagonal building that worked as a sundial, water clock, and weather vane.
Hadrian's Library
Emperor Hadrian built this library complex in 132 AD. Mostly ruins now, but the scale of the remaining courtyard shows how significant it once was - it held thousands of scrolls.
Temple of Olympian Zeus (Olympieion)
Fifteen massive columns remain of the original 104. The Temple of Olympian Zeus is located southeast of the Acropolis. Construction started in the 6th century BCE but wasn’t finished until Emperor Hadrian completed it about 600 years later.
Kerameikos
Athens’ ancient cemetery is renowned for its ancient burial monuments, which highlight the historical and cultural significance of the Kerameikos area. You’ll find elaborate grave markers, ceremonial roads, and sections of the original city walls. The on-site museum has funerary art and pottery - the area was named after the potters who worked here.
Aristotle's Lyceum (Lykeion)
Where Aristotle founded his school, known as Aristotle's School or the Lyceum, in 335 BCE. Not much remains above ground, but the excavated site is historically significant as the birthplace of systematic Western philosophy, logic, and natural science.
Plan your visit to the Acropolis
Most of these sites share similar seasonal opening hours:
Summer hours (April - August) typically run 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, winter hours (November - March) close at 5:00 PM.
The Acropolis reduces hours gradually during September and October. Check individual site schedules before visiting, as closures for holidays or weather occasionally happen.
All of these sites are in central Athens, most within walking distance. The Acropolis, Ancient Agora, and Roman Agora form a tight cluster.
The Temple of Olympian Zeus is about a 15-minute walk southeast. Kerameikos and the Lyceum are a bit further but still walkable or a short metro ride. Comfortable shoes and water are essential.
The Panathenaic Stadium, another major historical site and the venue of the first modern Olympic Games, is also within walking distance and can be included in your sightseeing. Exploring Athens Old Town and the historical town areas is highly recommended, as they offer rich cultural experiences alongside the archaeological sites.
Save the Temple of Olympian Zeus for late afternoon light. Visit Kerameikos when you want a quieter experience away from crowds. Spreading it out makes each site more enjoyable.
Plan your visit to take advantage of free admission days, such as the first Sunday of each month from November to March, when entry to archaeological sites is free. Large backpacks and luggage are not allowed at the Acropolis, so leave them at your hotel or use a luggage-storage service near Acropoli metro station.
Visitors with disabilities can ask for special assistance at the ticket offices or entrances of the sites if needed.
Why choose an Acropolis combo ticket?
A combo ticket lets you explore more of Athens’ heritage in one go. The Acropolis of Athens stands as the centerpiece, showcasing religious and artistic life, while the Acropolis Museum displays the original sculptures, the Agoras reveal commerce and civic activity, and a hop-on hop-off bus connects the city’s highlights.
To enhance your visit, the combos include an audio guide for exploring the sites at your own pace. Since the official Athens combined ticket no longer exists, a combo booked via Headout is the most practical way to combine the Acropolis with other highlights of Athens.
Frequently asked questions
01 What is an Acropolis combo ticket?
A bundled ticket that combines entry to the Acropolis with other attractions in a single purchase. Current options via Headout are the Acropolis & Parthenon + Acropolis Museum combo, the Athens Multipass (the Acropolis + 5 sites, valid for 3 days) and the Acropolis + 2-day hop-on hop-off bus combo. The former official combined ticket, which covered the Acropolis and six other sites, was discontinued in 2025.
02 Is the Athens combined ticket available in 2026?
No. The official Athens combined ticket was discontinued in 2025 and no longer exists. To visit several sites, book a combo via Headout - for example the Athens Multipass with the Acropolis and five more sites (valid for 3 days) from about 135 € - or buy individual tickets for each site.
03 How much does an Acropolis combo ticket cost?
Prices depend on what’s included. Via Headout, the Acropolis + 2-day hop-on hop-off bus combo starts from about 51 €, the Acropolis & Parthenon + Acropolis Museum combo from about 75 €, and the Athens Multipass with the Acropolis and five more sites from about 135 €. These are “from” prices and can change.
04 Is the Acropolis combo ticket worth it?
Yes, if you want to see more than the Acropolis. A combo saves you separate bookings, and sites like the Ancient Agora and the Temple of Olympian Zeus charge their own admission as well. If you plan to visit the Acropolis Museum or several archaeological sites anyway, a combo is usually the more convenient choice.
05 What is the difference between an Acropolis combo ticket and single ticket?
A single Acropolis ticket grants one-time entry to the Acropolis and its slopes only. A combo ticket adds more - the Acropolis Museum, additional archaeological sites or a hop-on hop-off bus - and multi-day products like the Athens Multipass stay valid for several days instead of a single visit.
06 How long is an Acropolis combo ticket valid?
It depends on the product. The Athens Multipass is valid for 3 days, and the hop-on hop-off bus combo includes 2 days of unlimited bus travel. Your Acropolis entry is always tied to a specific date and time slot, and each included site can be entered only once.
07 Does the Athens combined ticket include the Acropolis Museum?
The former official combined ticket never included the Acropolis Museum, and it was discontinued in 2025. The museum always requires its own ticket - or a combo such as the Acropolis & Parthenon + Acropolis Museum ticket via Headout, from about 75 €.
08 What are the best Acropolis combo ticket options?
It depends on what you want. For maximum site coverage, choose the Athens Multipass (the Acropolis + 5 sites, 3 days). For deeper context, pick the Acropolis + Acropolis Museum combo with audio guide. To see the rest of the city as well, the Acropolis + hop-on hop-off bus combo is a good fit. Check the cancellation terms on each product page.
09 Where can I buy Athens combo tickets?
The official combined ticket no longer exists, so combo tickets are sold by third-party providers. We recommend booking via Headout, where you will find all the combos shown on this page. Buying online in advance secures your preferred time slot.
