What people are saying about Lindos Acropolis

Overall rating

4.5 / 5

based on 973 reviews

The Acropolis of Rhodes is highly recommended when you are in the village of Lindos. You must wear good (not slippery) shoes. Lots of climbing but when you get to the top you really get your money's worth. You can certainly soak up culture here.

Fortunately, the fast pass allowed us to pass through. It was a pity that there is no sign at the entrance that you can walk straight through with the fast pass. Only when an employee saw that I had one did he say that I could continue.

Contrary to some reviews, the skip the line ticket worked very well. The audio guide is easy to use and very comprehensive. It allows you to learn more about the acropolis and its history.

Great application!!accurate guide,which offers you a personalized and detailed tour, and compines past (history) with present through augmented reality!
