Good time to go. Fewer people at this site.
Get reservations and get an earlier time slot. We enjoyed the two big museums, Archeological and Acropolis. The Acropolis museum is also over Roman ruins and you can see the excavation.

If you are not with a group meander through the Plaka area. Enjoy the little cafes and restaurants.
Enjoy your trip.
