What’s Good with the Athens City Pass by Turbopass
The fact that the Athens City Pass by Turbopass is a digital product means there’s no need to keep track of multiple tickets or remember to bring along a bunch of different passes when you’re trying to pack. So long as you have your smartphone on you, you’ve got your Athens City Pass in hand.
Having said that, if you’re the kind of person who prefers to keep things a little bit old school, you’ll be thrilled to know that you can choose to use your Athens City Pass by Turbopass as a paper ticket. All you’ll need to do to make this happen is print out the email attachments containing your Athens City Pass at home ahead of time and carry those documents along with you on your trip.
Anyone who’s ever made travel reservations knows that life can get in the way—from time to time, things pop up out of nowhere and throw a wrench in the plans of even the most organized travelers. That’s why it’s a relief to many customers that you can cancel your Athens City Pass by Turbopass all the way up until one day before your pass is scheduled to start. You’ll be charged a cancellation fee for doing so, but if you’ve bought a lengthy pass, it will prevent you from losing the entire cost of your pass purchase.
What Could Get Better?
Once you’ve started using your Athens City Pass by Turbopass, there’s no way to edit or alter the length of your pass. That means, for example, that if you purchase a four-day Athens Turbopass only to realize later that you could actually conclude your sightseeing comfortably in, say two or three days, you’ll be unable to make any changes to your plans on the fly.
Compared to a number of other tourist passes in a variety of other markets, the Athens City Pass by Turbopass simply doesn’t include all that many different attractions. This won’t be a problem if you’re only interested in using your Turbopass to visit the city’s most famous attractions, but if you’re the type of traveler who looks to organize all their sightseeing via a single tourist pass, this could prove less than ideal.
Get Your Money’s Worth with the Athens City Pass by Turbopass
For an all-inclusive tourist pass, the Athens City Pass by Turbopass is relatively inexpensive, which means it’s all that much easier for you to get your money’s worth when using it. For instance, if you buy a one-day Athens City Pass, all you need to do in order to make the purchase worth it is tour the Acropolis, visit the Acropolis Museum, and go on the Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Tour. Seeing as how almost all Athens visitors rank those three attractions among their favorite destinations here, that makes for a strong plan straightaway.
It’s also not difficult to save money when using a two-day or three-day Athens City Pass by Turbopass. If you were to utilize either of those pass options and go to the three major attractions listed above—as well as visit a selection of five local museums such as the Herakleidon Museum, the Ilias Lalaounis Jewelry Museum, the Kotsanas Museum, the Museum of Greek Folk Musical Instruments, and the Museum of Illusions—you would save approximately 30% without any difficulty.
Another terrific means for using your Athens City Pass as a money-saving resource is by taking advantage of the many shopping discounts that are included as part of your Turbopass.
