Hello! I will be travelling to Athens for the first time with my family (spouse, 2 kids, ages 10 and 12) this summer and have been looking at lots of options for timed entry tickets and guides to visit the Acropolis. The site that seems to have the best option for us is https://www.acropolis-tickets.com/. Can anyone provide feedback on the reputability of this site? Personal experiences working with them would be great. Thank you!

The official website for purchasing tickets to Greek archaeological sites and museums is Hellenic Heritage, which you can find at the following link:

All other online offers, such as acropolis-ticket, are third-party resellers who, in essence, will simply click for you by booking your tickets on this official website, and of course, charge you more for this service.

Thank you for this reply. If you have any experience with this particular company that would be great to hear about.

I have no experience with this company located somewhere in an office in NYC, and I don't want to. I simply answered your question. "Best way to purchase a timed ticket (with a guide) to the Acropolis."
There is a free audio guide published by Rick Steves:
