hello,
ive been trying to purchase tickets for Acropolis for May 4, 2026, and have been to the official site, https://hhticket.gr, but keep getting a pop-up that says e-tickets "not available for this date". Anyone else have this issue? is it too early? Is this normal? (today is April 3, I check each day). They are available through April 30, but not May.
Yes, too soon, keep checking daily, the summer months will be available soon.
I'm trying too! Do all summer months become available at the same time?
I actually sent an email to HH and was told to check daily, they would be on sale soon for the summer months.
Sounds good; thank you!
Has anyone had any luck? I’m still getting this message - hoping to book for July…
Hello travelers!
I contacted the tour guide that we hired for our Acropolis visit and she told me tickets go on sale on the first of the month for the month you wish to purchase. I’m going to try on the last couple days of April as we need tix on May 4.
I saw this morning that tickets for May are finally released. I was able to get tickets for the 8:00-9:00 time slot for our trip in May.
Thanks Tish! That’s what I was beginning to think. Hoping they release more summer ones early on - I’d love to be able to book it before we leave (we’re traveling from June into July and this will be at the tail end of the trip)
Hi, All - I'm in the same boat--trying to get tix for June 1, ideally. I keep getting this message for many (all?) dates in June: "e-Ticketing service is not available for this specific selection." I don't know if that means I am early or late to the game. Does anyone know whether this means June is already sold out, as of May 14, or whether I should just keep trying daily?
Thanks!
Keep checking daily. Tickets for the upcoming month go on sale the last week of the prior month. That was what happened in my case. We were leaving for our trip on April 24 and I was able to purchase tix for May 4 just before we left on April 23!
Thank you, Tish.
Also, my guide books advise that I get a combo ticket (i.e., "joint visit"). If I purchase the ticket called "Acropolis and Slopes" at hhtickets.gr, is that the combo ticket or just single visit? i'm clicking around and can't quite tell. If the HH ticket isn't the combo, does anyone know where I can get that?
Similarly, I'm going to get tickets for Mycenae, but it looks like I might have to buy a handful of them (at a minimum, Messene and Treasury of Atreus) separately?
Thanks for your help!
The combo ticket that allowed visits to 7 sites over a few days was discontinued two years ago. It is now one ticket per site.
The "Acropolis & Slopes" ticket is the one that allows you to visit all the monuments and temples on the Acropolis hill, including the Parthenon.
You do not need to buy tickets for Mycenae in advance; you will buy them on site.
This is so helpful, JoLui. Merci beaucoup! ;)
je vous en prie! : ) we all help each other. Have a great trip, travelers!
In more casual French, you can say "'y'a pas de quoi" instead of "je vous en prie". :-)
