What makes it 39% Baby-Friendly: Babies are admitted free and a ramped main path fits a stroller, but most ground is rocky, toilets have no changing tables, and no nursing space, so parents must bring gear and expect hassle.

A great place to visit that’s a little bit further from the Acropolis than other sites, but still easy to access and worth a look, especially if you have the combi ticket. The cemetery is lovely to walk around, while the site also contains the remains of a temple and pottery workshops. The museum is quite small, but holds many of the original stelai and sculptures of the reproductions you’ll see a...

This was the last of the 7 archeological sites we visited that were included with our ticket. It was large and unique compared to the others. I felt like it touched on different aspects of Greek history, which I appreciated. I also loved all the tortoises roaming the property (along with cats!) it felt like a bit of a scavenger hunt finding them in the tall grass! Spent about 1 hour here, but ...

I came here because it was included in my combo ticket I got for the Acropolis. Except for the Acropolis itself and the Ancient Agora, this is definitely the most interesting place. If you don't want to rush through it, you should allow around 2 hours.

Very worth visiting if you have the combo ticket. The site is a ruins of an ancient pottery town, there's plenty of interesting stuff around to see. I particularly enjoyed the area that is filled with ancient tombs. There's also a museum on site that you can visit for no extra charges. It's filled with interesting artifacts that had been excavated from the site, be sure to check it out too.

Excellent site, very enjoyable. Ancients roads, city walls, gates, tombs…. and a tortoise. Info markers here are well done and help you visualize the past prior to ruin. Tombs and grave markers are interesting. Wall construction interesting. Site also has potable water well, welcome on a blazing hot July day.
In summer, visit early to avoid heat and bring sun protection. In winter, dress in layers and aim for midday sun in open areas.
