    Not worth your money!

    I wanted to buy tickets for attractions in Athens, such as the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum. While searching online, a pop-up for the TurboPass Athens City Pass appeared. At first, I thought it was an official city or government tourism pass, so I purchased two, one for my husband and one for me. When I realized it was not an official pass, I immediately tried to cancel my order. I was told I would be charged a €30 cancellation fee per ticket, even though I had not yet received anything from them. Because of that, I decided to keep it. I selected a 9:00 a.m. entry time for the Acropolis and activated the audio guide included with the pass. On the day of our visit, after walking from our hotel to the Acropolis, I presented my QR code and discovered that my entry time had been changed to 12:00 p.m. without my knowledge. I was extremely frustrated because I had planned my day around the 9:00 a.m. entry, and I would never have chosen noon in the middle of the summer heat. I learned that choosing the time was pointless since they aren’t the ones assigning it to you. To make matters worse, I later found out that the audio guide they advertised as part of the pass is actually included with the standard €30 Acropolis ticket. I had paid over $100 USD for the pass. During our four-night stay in Athens, we used the pass for only three things: the Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum, and the hop-on, hop-off bus. The pass also includes attractions like the Museum of Illusions, but unless you have several extra days in Athens, I don’t think they’re worth sacrificing time that could be spent visiting the city’s historical sites. Even after four nights, we still didn’t have enough time to see everything we wanted. The hop-on, hop-off bus can be purchased separately for about €12, making it a much better value. Overall, I found the TurboPass Athens City Pass to be misleading, overpriced, and poor value for money. I would not recommend purchasing it.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. 😊 We're sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that Turbopass is an independent city pass provider and not an official government tourism pass. This is clearly stated on our website. The cancellation conditions, including applicable fees, are also displayed before purchase. Regarding the Acropolis entry time, we always communicate that the final time slot depends on the attraction's availability and cannot be guaranteed. We understand that this can affect travel plans, especially during the summer months. Our Athens City Pass is designed for travelers who wish to visit several included attractions. Many customers achieve significant savings by making full use of the pass, while others may find individual tickets more suitable depending on their itinerary. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving the information we provide to future customers. Best regards, Your Turbopass Team

    Be sure to check details....

    Be sure to check details. Our Acropolis tour was to be at 9 am - changed from 11 am however QR code did not get chsnged so we had to wait two hours in the heat!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. 😊 We’re very sorry to hear about this experience. We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait in the heat because the QR code was not updated after your tour time changed. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and will use your feedback to help improve our communication and booking process. Best regards Your Turbopass Team

    Our one-day Athens total disaster.

    We booked a Turbo Pass on Big Bus through Viator and Trip Advisor which included 10 attractions and entry to the Acropolis all prepaid at $cdn 224.00. We received a confirmation and bar code with a confirmation number. We arrived for pickup and the bus company couldn’t find the booking and said we needed a QR code which had never been sent to us. A total ruined day of going to see the amazing Acropolis. We deserve a total refund but instead were totally ignored. Joe Krapiec. joekrapiec@gmail.com

    Kosta was entertaining...

    Kosta was entertaining and very knowledgeable. The food was amazing. It was great to learn more about what we ate and where we ate it. Would fully recommend

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful feedback! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that Kosta made the experience entertaining and informative, and that you enjoyed the food as well. It’s great to know you had such a memorable time learning about what you ate and where it came from. We truly appreciate your recommendation! Best regards Your Turbopass Team

    Don't buy if you're disabled as a lot of the sites are free entry for disabled people

    I bought the turbopass thinking it was good value for money. However as my mum is disabled we couldn't access a lot of the acropolis site like slopes and had to cut out time there short due to rain. Then with the hop on /off tour the stop for the Rivera tour was changed last minute meaning we missed the 12:20 depart the day. So I ended up paying another €27 euro for a taxi to get to kavouri beach as other public transport wasn't accessible. Also if you're a disabled person then you can get free entry into the acropolis and museums. In the end if I'd known about free admission as a disabled person I would have only needed to pay for the hop on/off bus so I'd have only ended up paying about £255 in total in comparison to the £390 I paid for a 5 day pass for two people. Personally for our family it wasn't worth it - if you're abled bodied then yes it's probably more worth it but I wouldn't choose to buy it again.

    Response from the operator: We are very sorry that the information about discounts for people with disabilities and changes to the hop-on/hop-off bus was unclear. We understand that this was very frustrating. We would have been happy to help you find the best options for your situation before your trip. Thank you for your feedback—it helps us improve our service.

    Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites cost?

    +

    Prices start at $33 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.

    Is Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.5/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites?

    +

    Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Athens City Pass: Acropolis, Museums, Hop on Hop off & 15+ Sites start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Athens?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Small Group Greek Traditional Food Tour in Athens 20+ Tastings, Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Athens?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Athens?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
