The National Archaeological Museum is the largest museum in Greece and one of the world's great museums. Although its original purpose was to secure all the finds from the 19th century excavations in and around Athens, it gradually became the central National Archaeological Museum and was enriched with finds from all over Greece. Its abundant collection, with more than 11,000 exhibits, provides a panorama of Greek civilization from the beginnings of prehistory to late antiquity. The museum is housed in an imposing neoclassical building from the end of the 19th century, which was designed by L. Lange and remodeled by Ernst Ziller. The vast exhibition space, numerous galleries on each floor accounting for a total of 8,000 square meters, houses five large permanent collections. For example, the Collection of Prehistoric Antiquities, which includes works of the great civilizations that developed in the Aegean from the 6th millennium B.C. to 1050 B.C. (Neolithic, Cycladic and Mycenaean) and finds from the prehistoric settlement at Thera. The Sculptures Collection shows the development of ancient Greek sculpture from the 7th to the 5th centuries B.C. with unique masterpieces. The Vase and Minor Objects Collection, which contains representative works of ancient Greek pottery from the 11th century B.C. to the Roman period, also includes the Stathatos Collection, a corpus of minor objects from all periods. In the Bronze Collection, you'll find many fundamental statues, figurines and minor objects.

All the agents at the tour stops are exceptionally helpful. We booked this bus 4 times just because it was easy to get around, until we learned how to use the Subway. Vasilis at the Acropolis was exceptionally helpful and gave us great insight into great local places to visit

The red route covers city centre, with interesting and informative commentary through the headphones in many different languages. We covered a lot in one day, visited the Acropolis, stopped off for a coffee is a roof top bar. Very good value for money.

We didn't have to wait in the line which is a really good thing in my opinion. The thing that I like the most is the map we got with the audio guide, it is really helpful. Made my planning much easier

Overall, this was a really easy process. The audio guide readers were not all equally charismatic, but two of the three were good. The QR codes were fairly easy to handle with a smartphone.

Great place to know more about Greek history, excellent environment, and the price/quality is more than perfect!
