DEPAS of Mycenae Reviews

Plenty of rocks.
Only lion gate, treasure of Arteus gate and museum worth to visit.

Amazing and huge archeological site, don't skip the treasuries!
The town itself shows how poor Greece is.
Though I was there off season..

Impressive old stones - you can admire these buildings only impressively

Great place, lots to see but not good if you have mobility issues, lots of slopes.

A must for visitors to the Pelopones, because this is the cradle of our civilization. Mycenae is always well attended and well prepared for tourists with light shoes. A visit is not too strenuous but a bottle of water should be taken with you. Don't forget to visit the Tholos tombs outside and the museum.

They are "only" pebbles .... but rich in history
It can be said that Western civilization was born here ... and then Elena, Melenao, Achilles .... Homer ..
An emotion .... and the Atrei's tomb is a masterpiece
Beautiful landscapes

Impressive! These huge rocks! Especially when we say that it dates from the 13th century BEFORE Jesus Christ !!! Do not forget to go see the Treasury of Athrea which is located a little further. The entry is valid for both sites, it is 12 . The site is large and worth seeing.

If you are in the area it is a must-visit place. In addition to the tholos tombs and the ancient city whose beauty is unquestionable, the view is also breathtaking. The full ticket costs 12 euros, there is the possibility of free parking.

The museum is excellent though small. It helps to be a little read beforehand. Very good self-guided tour through headphones which is free.

Interesting place. I especially liked the well restored graves. You get a good impression.
According to the travel guide, one could also have looked at the water supply. Unfortunately, this was cordoned off.

Then we were still in the museum. A lot of artifact and good names.

I don't think Mycenae as a historical and mythological place needs any further introduction. The remains of the ancient fortress and the associated tombs are truly breathtaking.
The information boards on site are informative, but a little sparse. It is therefore worth reading a little before visiting.
You should plan your visit as early as possible so that you can enjoy this place undisturbed.
The grave of Klytaimnestra alone, without being able to let other tourists act on you, is definitely worth getting up early.

Rugged hilltop ruins, in a mystic location overlooked by two huge peaks. Good signs. Nice small museum with some well presented finds from the site. Don't skip the tholos (beehive) tombs. If it's open, climb down into the ancient water cistern at the far end of the complex, cut into the rock under the walls.

Magnificent ! We wonder how it got there? A site steeped in history. Wow!

"the Colossus of Maroussi" (1939)
In the footsteps of Henri Miller ...
He devoted a few wonderful pages to this site ...

One of the most important archaeological sites in Greece, one that is definitely worth visiting by both Greeks and foreigners. Spend enough time on this visit and don't miss the Museum of Mycenae.

Extremely well preserved site from thousands of years ago. A true trip to the past.

Amazing experience! What emotion to pass the Lion Gate

Nice archeological sight, especially the Lions gate.

Wonderful place! The emotion is great for who was fascinated by the Illiade and the origins of Toie's war

The fortified citadel that gave birth to the incredible civilization we know is definitely worth a visit. In 2 hours you enter and exit the Porta dei Leoni and the route is extraordinary for historical / archaeological interest and from a landscape point of view. Notable pieces are housed in the adjoining museum. 12 euros for all this and for the Tesoro du Atreo are very few and well spent. Me, my wife and our daughter enjoyed this show on 29th August 2018. Have a good trip to the origins of Europe. And don't hesitate.

Incredible apologize and historical place that I've most visit of you're traveling in Greece!

Small interesting oasis in the Peloponnese countryside. Well maintained museum

12 entry is an absolute impudence. A few kilometers away, Acrokotinth is completely free to visit and really interesting.

At the end of August in the year of the corona virus, everything was open, deserted, only the cistern was closed.

Place rich in history and well signposted ... lovely view

Beautiful site with the famous lion gate in a beautiful landscape.

Few rock formations but it looks really great and free for students visit at early hours.

This place is magical when you look at the size of the stones you ask if the cyclops did not exist

The remains of an old castle on the surrounding Cycladic Walls at a height of 278m with a view of the Argos Bay.

The ancient Greek city of Mycenae, southwest of Athens, is known for its massive fortress and tholos, hive-shaped tombs. The stones used to build the city were so large that the Greeks later believed that the city was built by the Cyclops.

An interesting archaeological area of a magnificent spot. the beginning of May, in the greenery of the crowd.

The price is high for the past moment
The museum is pretty good thanks to the hearing aid in French.

Breathtaking view! But the site could be better highlighted

You have to go.
Magnificent!

Nice of what's left. Rather recommend the Apollo Epicurius temple

It's impressive ... I can't believe it. How could they move those stones

THIS IS A GREAT ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE ...
I DREAMED IT ... AND I WAS NOT DISAPPEARED ...
IT MUST REALLY GO TO ...
AND THIS LANDSCAPE IS WITH CUT BREATH ...

It is good to be here at 8 o'clock in the morning due to the heat and tourists, otherwise take a photo in the "Lion's Gate"
you won't. The museum is air conditioned, you can cool off there.

The place is huge and enchanting ... ideal combination for one-day excursions from Athens.

He still needs work, some of the staff inside when I went, he was interested in the shadow and chatting rather than doing his job. The museum is nice.

It's a wonderful Mycenaean site. Please take a look.

The doors of the lionesses alone deserve a visit. As for the rest of the site, the disappointments follow one another. Pity....

i came here on my honeymoon with heinrich... and his wife showed up... good thing there were plenty of empty holes in the ground... would reccomend

An important milestone in our history .. Try not to go for a stampede - you'll be routed to be daily for fewer groups, expensive tickets

Monumental entrance to the city of Mycenae, although unfortunately there is very little that remains of it.
