Best Tourist Cards in Athens
Athens has only two tourist passes to choose from, namely the popular Athens Pass and the combo ticket of the Acropolis with 6 archaeological sites. The advantage of both tourist cards is that they are really worth it and you have to decide whether or not you want to visit the Acropolis Museum. Your two options:
1) Highly recommended: Athens Pass
In my opinion, this is the most complete and best tourist card for a city trip to Athens is the Athens City Pass. With one purchase you have the most important skip the line tickets. And even better; you get all tickets online. When you visit a number of archaeological areas, you will soon have earned this ticket back, because buying individual tickets is quite expensive (e.g. Acropolis € 20, Ancient Agora € 10, Temple of Zeus € 8 and Kerameikos € 8), making this city pass is absolutely recommended if you are going to do even a little bit of culture.

This combo-ticket is the smaller version of the Athens City Pass above.
