The museum is really nice! I recommend visiting the museum before visiting the acropolis.
Acropolis Museum: Skip The Line Ticket + Audio Guide
About this experience
Get skip-the-line access to the Acropolis Museum in Athens and step inside to discover all you need to know about ancient Greece, with a clear view of the Acropolis through floor-to-ceiling windows.
This fascinating museum contains relics of the Temple of Athena Nike, votive offerings – including Korai, marble statues of young women – and sculptures depicting the Gigantomachy, the battle between the Gods of Olympus and the giants.
Fans of ancient Greece will feel like they're in Elysium, with exhibits covering the period from the 5th century BC to the 5th century AD. Learn about the development of the city-state and the country's transition from aristocracy to tyranny and, eventually, democracy.
Don't forget to visit the open-air excavation site located underneath the museum for even more ancient Greek treasures.

Reviews
An excellent place to get an in-depth look of what the Acropolis was and how it developed and fell during different period in our history. You may take a guided tour or just do your own research and do it on your own. I recommend visiting the "underground" archaeological dig level as well.
