One good option is the combo ticket offered at the price of 35 euros (just 5 euros over than the Acropolis stand alone ticket) .
You can find Combo tickets valid for entrance to the Acropolis and other Archaeological Sites as a smart choice. In our opinion a pre-booked combo ticket that gives you skip-the-line access to 7 of Athens' top archaeological sites always worths its money. Enjoy savings of up to 50% and avoid the long lines of tourists at the Acropolis, Ancient Agora, Roman Agora, Temple of Zeus, Aristotle's School, Hadrian's Library, and Kerameikos Ancient Cemetery.
