Great little museum! This is a very interesting museum, each piece of the technology was described in detail and videos also shown to demonstrate how the technology works. However the live demo by Vera was fantastic! Vera explained everything clearly and was very enthusiastic and happy to show us the different technologies, she brought the technologies to life for us. Thanks Vera!

The Museum of Ancient Technology is a brilliant and fascinating display of what clever engineer-philosophers could do with water, air, gravity, string, fire, and brain power to build machines for vending a cup of wine, telling time, lifting immense weights, and even flying. The devices have been built meticulously from the written descriptions. Many of them are hands-on and the others are demonstrated by eager and knowledgable docents. This is an excellent visit for adults and children.

Great place to learn about ancient Greek technology. It was fascinating to see how they made a "robot", hoisting machine, alarm clock, and burglar alarm. Tour guides show people exactly how the devices worked and were very friendly and informative. Good for children and adults. One can touch and use many objects. I highly recommend it.

The museum just keeps on giving. From interactive attributes like reconstructed inventions and instruments, to little puzzles and games. We got a tour from one of the guides for free. The guide was very professional and very kind as well. All in all a no-brainer for anyone interested in history or just a fun (educational) afternoon.

We visited this museum as part of another tour. It was a perfect choice for myself and 11yr old son who is obsessed with technology. We were on holiday for quite some time so choosing this museum was a great way to educate him on Greeces inventions. We had a guided tour of the museum which was also perfect because each exhibit was broken down and explained in a language that was easy for him to understand. My son has ADHD and the guided tour kept him engaged for the time of the tour, which is outstanding for a child with this condition.

An absolutely amazing experience. This is exactly how a science/engineering museum should be run. The staff were enthusiastic to demonstrate how the devices work and were able to answer all the questions asked. There were exhibits that you could interact with, which really showed how they worked. This is the perfect place to visit for anyone scientifically/engineering/mathematically inclined. It is great for children of all ages too.

This little museum is packed with many items of history with lots of documentation. Sad that we weren’t allowed to take pictures. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful, demonstrating some of the displays. We would recommend this stop to anyone visiting the area.

Genuinely, we just found ourselves passing by and decided to go in. Simply stunning - i really had no idea the ancient Greeks had actually 'invented'/made(?) time-telling machines i.e. advanced clocks, door alarms. I will re-watch the latest Indiana Jones with a bit more belief now! How did they work this all out? Beyond me. Very interesting. Confess found the musical instruments (upstairs) less so and maybe would not have bought the wider ticket to see that. But incredible museum. Staff very eager to explain.

Our family was looking for something smaller to visit our first day in Athens, while we were still exhausted from the overnight flight. This museum fit the bill, perfectly! We thought it was fabulous! To be fair, we are all kind of nerdy folks who love learning :) If you are a math and science aficionado - or a musician or engineer - you will love it too!. So many incredible inventions from the Greeks - from alarm clocks and door bells, to advanced weaponry and religious experiences. It is smallish, but full of things to learn. Cost of exhibits is reasonable, and staff explain many of the interesting pieces.

Amazing family experience. Hands on exhibits. Try the private tour guide. It's not that expensive. The people working there seem to be enjoying what theybare doing. A very clever museum. It demonstrates the intelligence of Anvient Greeks.
