If it were not for what the ancient builders of the agora acropolis and the beautiful Greek statuary left behind, Athens would not be so much visited today ... chaotic and poorly maintained city

Very good!!! It's worth it to give you an idea of where the dots are.

Easy to use, friendly attendant,and bus drivers
Some of the audio guide didn't work and overall I would have expected more information. It was better on the Piraeus route
View original review in German
Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and we ran late because we got lost getting to the meeting point and they were so helpful in getting us there in time to join the others! It was wonderful!
The bus makes its last trip from Acropolis very early at 6.15p.m. We waited for the blue bus for over an hour because I had understood that it ran until 8pm. We had to walk to the train station to buy a ticket to return

Frequency was a useful, and key feature. So much to see, do (& eat & drink). So wasn't losing lots of time waiting for a bus to turn up. (Certainly a contrast with booking "day trips" organised by some companies). We were staying in Athens - & it was really nice to be able to jump off, visit somewhere & do something, then jump on without much waiting. And let's be honest, there is so much to do, to see, to enjoy.
Well-informed when departing from the cruise ship in Piraeus. Easy to take the different lines. Attractive price for two days.

Buses are spot on time. Friendly drivers and others staff who are helpful in stopping at other places on request if on the route. How they navigate the crazy traffic defies understanding. Price is very reasonable for up to 2 days riding around.
There was confusion with the bus stop and also the audio was not operating properly
Great way to get to know the city centre and the main attractions. The lady who gave us our tickets was very helpful
The audio guide in German was good The impression of the inner area of the city was good.

Great experience! Ticketing was easy and straightforward. Totally recommend!
Trip to Piräus is recommended. You can ask the local tour guides for help at any time
Good buses. The staff was very friendly and guided us at all times. Good routes.

We took this bus by accident. We hadn't planned on it. We just happended to be near one of the stops. The ticket person was really friendly and explained all we needed to know about the tour and gave us a map of the route. The audio was adequate to cover the part of the city we were passing through. Great way to see Athens. It was also a good way to get back to our hotel. I recommend this tour.
The three bus tours are great. You get to all the sights and are very mobile in the city. The audio information was very helpful. The staff at Big-Bus are always friendly and give competent advice on all questions. Many thanks for the wonderful experience.

Your guys working on every stations are lovely. Very helpful and kind. However I'd be happy if you just let me know on application or on mail about the bicycle race throughout Athens on Sunday, April 6th. It changed the routes and crossingpoints and I only heard of that on Sunday after buying my ticket.
Everybody was very kind and helpful, good experience
Good value for money. Buses ran to schedule. Staff were generally friendly and helpful.
Very nice and helpful staff, on time schedule
The departure times were never correct. The routes given online were also different from the ones actually taken. Not good for planning!!!
View original review in German
To be honest I have been disappointed as every single staff member I have been talking to never provided me the full information and also there were so many discrepancies between the information given which led to waste of our time and tiredness. I do work in English on a daily basis and understand and respect the different level of knowledge or culture of each other however I find unacceptable that they actually do not really understand or provide the full information allowing a smooth experience. I also used the chat which was extremely annoying and not been helpful at all. Finally yesterday we arrived early and I was with my parents who are now very old, I have asked more than once at what time we needed to be back, for which I have been told to come back at 11... I have checked on purpose and asked if we could board earlier on and he said no it will be 11. In the end we have arrived at 10:50 and the bus was full. To me when people are old and absolutely need to sit and I ask on top... this is unacceptable. Audio worked perfectly and good to have. Tour and locations proposed were nice. I hope this comment will help for future customers.
Didn't like comnentary, Riviera line very poor. Music eas nice at first then was very repretitive and irritating. Same on Athens tour, repetitive music. . Not as informative as expected.
Easy way to get around and stops were easy to spot (once we knew what we were looking for - a pic of the bus stop sign sent with confirmation would be a good touch). The audio was not synced properly during our first trip around Athens, it was at least a stop behind the whole trip. The 2 employees working one of the cross over stops were giving conflicting directions about where they wanted people to que and then got rude when people were confused . The Riviera route was late returning from a last run due to traffic congestion and then the driver gave us wrong info and we missed our last bus back to Piraeus.
I had to wait 2 hours to get my tickets. The buses ran late and sometimes not at all
The staff were very friendly and kind. The audio was very illustrative and educational on the routes used.

As a history lover , I was able to immerse myself in what the Acropolis once was. I didn't get the audio guide , perhaps I should have however , there's information everywhere with pictures and fragments to give you the great historical experience . Views of the city also amazing !
Meravigliosa esperienza. Tutto perfetto consiglio scarpe comode cappello e protezione solare. Il sito è conservato benissimo Audio guida in italiano molto utile e dettagliata per la città vecchia ricca di monumenti,chiese e edifici storici
The Acropolis itself is spectacular, it is a millenary place and incredible! It would be very useful the audio guide to learn and understand where you are and what is what but it was good the tickets with no line and no problem to redeem them. The tourist bus is good for people who dedicate the time we had no problem using it but we did not have time so next time I do not buy it because I did not use it. To improve the location of the stops in piraeus and glyfada, we could never find them.

Amazing experience. Very little information or support re queueing on arrival but once we had sussed it out all went well.
Good atmosphere, from the audience. It would be nice if there were a few more information boards. The kiosk wanted €7.50 for a pack of pringels which is extortionate. The general prices were very high, but this exceeded that.
View original review in German
The package is worth it, especially because it includes the entrance to the Acropolis and watching the sunset at the temple of Poseidon is beautiful. What I think is confusing is the beginning of the tour. We waited at the appointed place 15 minutes before our time and no one showed up. Then we went to exchange tickets and entered the Acropolis but we missed the first part of the tour.
The electron tickets were very easy to use. Great communication. The Acropolis was a great day out and getting round Athens on the open top bus made it easy to go everywhere. We went around the city and down the coast.
Crow de were very busy and slow at 9am, hear at that point was extremely hot. Doesn't seem to be any real procedure in place to deal with the crowds.
The pick-up points were clear, uncluttered and precise, so there was nothing to report on that score. The sites we visited were magnificent and well worth the detour - and the weather was just right too 😍. The only negative point was the temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion. We had the (less pleasant) surprise to discover, once there, that we had to add €20 from our own pocket to gain access to the site. This point should be mentioned more clearly in the advert! Having said that, our guide was adorable, which helped us get over the hump 😊. In conclusion: a great day out, definitely worth doing again! But the details regarding entrance fees really should be better specified, for example: "Tickets for the temple of Poseidon are not included." Thank you for a memorable experience.

We arrived just before 8am and were a little disappointed that there was already a huge queue. However once the gates opened at 8, the pre-ordered QR codes were read really quickly and everybody got through the gates very efficiently. By the time we left there were a lot of people coming in, many from cruise ships so earlier was definitely better.
The climb was not that tough what I had thought.The audio guide was very helpful through which came to know the history of Parthenon and Acropolis
The highlight of my visit was how big and well preserved it is. If it is true that they let a lot of people pass and you do not enjoy it with the place deserves, it had to be more limited capacity.
View original review in Spanish
It was even more impressive than we could have anticipated. Of course it was crowded, but not to the extern that you couldn't take pictures without herds of people in it. The uphill walk wasn't too bad, and the cleanliness of the surroundings stood out.
Visit to the Acropolis without any problems. Trip to Cape Sunio for the Temple of Poseidon very well organized, audio guide in Italian interesting and well detailed along the way. Staff efficient and knowledgeable. Perhaps the price of the ticket to see the Temple could be included in the package, it would be a useful element of clarity.

I loved being on our own pacing , we listened and replayed the guide tour when necessary , we don't have to rush to keep up with everybody , we're very relaxed thus enjoying each moment .
Interesting tour. Slightly wrong gps point for the meeting point. It would be better to mention that this is the main entrance.

Excellent experience. The place is impressive, both the historical heritage and the landscape that is enjoyed at the same time.

Rightly priced and a good tour of the city on hop on buses. The bus to the coast was hourly and the stops were not marked, waited long to get a bus ack to city after a visit to the coast. Acropolis visit was as expected, quite busy with a big crowd waiting to enter. Overall enjoyed the trip. As we brought the tickets online we did not get a headphone to hear the commentary on the bus which was less satisfactory.
The Parthenon was crowded, as expected. The Cape Sounion trip was excellent: great quide with positive energy. Beautiful views from the Temple of Poseidon. Highly recommended!
This experience is perfect for an evening visit to the Acropolis followed by a walk through the Plaka to downtown Athens for dinner! amazing!
We had the best time and our tour guide Penny was amazing. She took us to many different places and was so knowledgeable about the area and the different food and wine experiences. She was persobalble and really provided an A plus tour. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Athens.
We bought tickets online and avoided waiting in line. We went in the morning so it wasn't too crowded. The experience is amazing, I would recommend it to anyone who loves history and architecture.
The Acropolis site and surrounding areas are a must-see! You do still have to get in a line and join those who booked the same time as you, but the line goes very fast and they start letting folks in 15 minutes prior to your chosen time. The audio was nice to have as well as it added more context. We went to the Acropolis museum right after (different ticket) and that closed the experience superbly!
Билеты на официальном сайте на утро уже закончились, а я не хотела стоять очередь на кассе. Аудиогидом не смогли воспользоваться, так как не было варианта на русском языке
It was a beautiful experience. Very crowded but the entry time was respected according to the tickets purchased online. Instead I was disappointed by the fact that I wanted to visit the Acropolis 2 days before and at 9 in the morning it was sold out, instead there were numerous guides at the entrance who had tickets at double the price.

Athen City Tour and riviera tour were very nice but the Piraeus tour was a bit disappointing.
The guide Ana was super friendly and very competent.
View original review in German
The trip along the sea was pointless. Especially the return road along the absolutely same route. The sights were obviously the sea and the area with the wealthy houses which, in your opinion, should generate a huge interest.
They were very attentive, especially a lady who spoke Spanish, a blonde who didn't seem to be Greek, I can't remember her name, who helped me twice and was very helpful.

Athens night tour
Built on a rocky hilltop, this UNESCO World Heritage site is a testament to ancient Greek craftsmanship and innovation being over 2,500 years old. This fortress is home to several significant structures, including the Parthenon, Erechtheion, and Temple of Athena Nike.
The early morning and late afternoon are ideal to beat the crowds.
Athens has a Mediterranean climate with hot summers and mild winters, so breathable fabrics and multiple layers are recommended. Comfortable sturdy shoes are a must for the hilly terrains and cobblestone streets.
The Athens Route/Red Line is the most popular route as it covers central Athens, including stops at the Acropolis, and Temple of Olympian Zeus. The Piraeus and Beach-Riviera lines stop at cruise ship terminals and beaches along the coast.
A full loop on the Athens Route typically takes about 90 minutes, while the Piraeus Route may take up to two hours. However, this can vary as per the traffic and route variations.
Yes, all Hop-on Hop-off buses in Athens are wheelchair-accessible.
Space is generally limited to personal items like small backpacks or handbags.
