Do I need to print my ticket?

No. Your mobile ticket is accepted at the entrance — simply show it on your phone screen.

Is entry really free for some visitors?

Yes. EU citizens under 25 and students enter free of charge. Children under 5 are also free. Discounted tickets are available on site for EU citizens aged 65 and over and for non-EU citizens under 18. Valid ID is required in all cases.

What is the difference between the two ticket options?

Both options include skip-the-line admission and the free Plaka audio tour. The second option adds an audio guide specifically for the Ancient Agora, which provides commentary as you walk through the site.

How long should I allow for a visit?

The site is open-ended and self-paced. Most visitors spend between one and two hours exploring the grounds, though you can take longer if you wish.

Is the Ancient Agora accessible for wheelchair users?

The site consists largely of uneven ancient ground and unpaved paths, which can be challenging for wheelchair users. It is advisable to check current accessibility conditions directly with the site before your visit.

Can I combine this ticket with an Acropolis visit?

The Ancient Agora ticket does not include entry to the Acropolis or other archaeological sites. A separate Acropolis ticket is required, though the two sites are within easy walking distance of each other.
