Walking Up the Acropolis in Athens — Can You Do It?
Can you walk up the Acropolis in Athens, Greece? How difficult is the climb? How steep is it, what is the walking surface like, and can you actually make it all the way to the Parthenon? Join Nancy and Dan as we walk up the Acropolis in Athens one step at a time, showing you what the climb is really like rather than simply showing you the view when we reach the top. If you've wondered whether walking up the Acropolis might be too steep, too rough or simply too difficult for you, this video lets you see the route for yourself before you go. We take you along on our walk toward the Parthenon, showing the steps, slopes, uneven surfaces, crowds and places where you can stop along the way. Our goal isn't to tell you whether you can make the climb—it's to show you what we experienced so you can make a more informed decision for yourself. Visiting Athens on Disney Cruise Line? Piraeus (Athens), Greece is one of the ports Disney Cruise Line visits on select European and Mediterranean itineraries. Disney Cruise Line offers Port Adventures that visit the Acropolis, and Athens can also be explored independently from the port of Piraeus. So if you're considering the Acropolis during a Disney cruise port day, this video can give you a much closer look at the actual walk before deciding whether it's right for you. Disney also currently offers an Explore Athens On Your Own Port Adventure from Piraeus for guests who prefer a more independent visit. Nancy and Dan Travel explores Disney, cruises and destinations for adults, including Disney Parks, Disney Resorts, Disney Cruise Line and destinations DCL guests can experience around the world.
