- Carry water and sun protection – Athens can be very sunny, especially at the Acropolis, so bring bottled water, sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses.
- Use lightweight clothing – Breathable, comfortable outfits are ideal for walking through ancient Greece sites and open-air archaeological areas.
- Bring a small backpack only – Large bags are restricted at some archaeological sites, and a light bag makes the visit more comfortable for families and kids.
