Tickets

Entry: Tickets from ~12.00 EUR
Indicative price — confirm the exact amount before booking.
Tickets can also be purchased on-site.

The ticket is purchased at the entrance to the acropolis. The steps to the top are steep — comfortable footwear is recommended. A morning visit is essential in summer due to the intense heat and crowds. Donkeys as transport to the top are available for an additional fee.

⛰️ Heads up: Hilly approach — the uphill section may add about 25 percent to the walking time to the attraction.
