Does one ticket cover the Acropolis and its museum?
Do not assume so: the Acropolis Museum sells its own ticket. Check the current archaeological-site tickets separately through the official information link.
The days these rules belong to
3 days in Athens
Pair the Acropolis with its museum, then spend a separate day among the agoras and lanes below the hill. The final day broadens the view with the National Archaeological Museum before moving to Syntagma, the National Garden and the marble stadium. Each archaeological complex gets one substantial visit, including its temples and monuments.
