Good information

Melanie_S, Nov 2025
The app was difficult to use. The app was glitchy. Good information on app. App a little bit confusion to navigate.

A buitiful day

Robin_R, Sep 2025
The Acropolis is magnificent. The guide with the reconstructions helped us understand its architecture.

A nice experience

Anas_S, Aug 2025
What i lived most was the freedom to explore at my own pace with the app. The reconstructions were incredible and really brought the archaeological site to life. It was a nice visit

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thanks for your feedback! It’s great to hear the app enhanced your visit.

Terrible waste of money

Chris_C, Aug 2025
Don’t buy - totally no need - go look at the site - read the info that’s available for free - if you want more info on it - go crack a Google - your phone dies - boring and too long - info you won’t retain - as boring as watching paint dry

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry the app didn’t meet your expectations. It seems you focused on the main site overview for the Acropolis, rather than the multimedia content available for all 17 monuments. Our app includes an interactive map and features for each monument—360° reconstructions, short build videos, 3D models, and audio narration—that many users find bring the site to life in ways text alone cannot. The tour is self-paced, so you can explore any monument in full or skip ones you prefer. The full experience typically lasts 45–60 minutes and is optimized to minimize battery use while delivering rich, engaging multimedia. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our services, and we hope you will continue to enjoy exploring with our app in the future.

"It was a pleasant...

Robin_R, Aug 2025
"It was a pleasant surprise to see the reconstructions of the buildings of the Acropolis as they were in ancient times, and together with the historical information, we gained a complete picture of the civilization that had developed in this place."

Response from Host, Aug 2025

We’re glad the app helped you explore the Acropolis! Hope you’ve enjoyed our new offline map—while in Athens, you can also take the free Olympieion tour.

Great tour - recommended

James_C, Mar 2025
This is a great tour! Acropolis is simple incredible. Rich history, stunning view and the app made it even better

Scam alert

Julio_M, Nov 2024
Waste of money . Once the app is open in your cell, it doesn’t let you continue until you repurchase the same service you’ve already paid to Viator

Definitely recommend

Jennifer_T, May 2024
Worth every penny! I learned so much history about the different monuments and the layout of the map made it clear as far as being able to navigate what you were learning about. Recommend 10/10

Poor

Michael_F, May 2024
Poor looking, lagging interface which looks to be from early iPhone era. Requires constant internet connection which may not always available. Not recommended.

Response from Host, May 2024

Thanks for your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the internet instability, which depends on the internet providers. We've made the tour open-access for home viewing.

Excellent

Thank you for your feedback. To clarify, our digital tour comes with one access code that can be used by all participants booked together. In your case, the single code covered both people. This is also mentioned in your confirmation email, and we’ll continue making this clearer for future guests.

No admission ticket only tour

Katharina_F, Sep 2025
You think you buy tickets to that is not so. You just buy some 3D tour. Admission is not included.

Pessimo italiano e 3D inutilizzabile in loco (causa riverbero)

Scilla_T, Jun 2024
Italiano spagnoleggiante e 3D inutilizzabile in loco a causa del forte riverbero che rendeva lo schermo del mio Iphone completamente scuro. Convengo che il 3D si può riguardare in altra sede, ma il senso è proprio goderselo sul posto.
