From Passprt Community
- Some visitors found the 3D and audio guides immersive but confusing to match with ruins when phones overheated under the August sun.
- Walking slowly through key spots like the Temple of Hephaistos gives better views and fewer crowds despite longer overall visit time.
- Entry tickets bought separately worked out fine since ticket queues were short outside peak hours and sites were walk‑up on arrival.
- The audio texts are rich and detailed though long, so some skipped parts to stay on schedule.
- Downloading the app and tour over Wi‑Fi beforehand is a must to avoid data issues and weak signal at the site.
- Comfort matters—uneven ground, hot sun and limited shade made early morning or late afternoon visits much more pleasant.
- If allowed by staff and time limits, take a moment to sit on benches near the Hephaistos temple for quiet views and reflections.
- Expect not all ruins to be clearly labelled, so extra reading later helps connect audio stories to what you see.
