Asclepieion at Kos

Interesting and nice place to visit. Sadly there is not that much too see and there are not a lot of signs with explanations, those with information are very easily to read, the sentences are a bit too long and complicated. A plus is the free ticket entry for EU students under the age of 25. Accessible by the local bus (1,50€ per ride)

I bought an online ticket and walked here from Kos town (30min). On a Dunday morning at 9am I was the first tourist to enter and had the place to myself for some time. The entire compound is surprisingly large with 3 terraces and fantastic views. Signposts explain the major buidlings.

Stunning history, beautiful to see, not accessible unless you can do many steps! Also €15pp.. But we did and enjoyed.

Ancient ruins with lots of steps to get to the top. If you would rather walk up a milder hill ascent then turn left immediately through the entry gate and walk up the hill around the outside then you can walk back down all the steps.

Amazing place where you can walk around for a couple of hours, taking in the beautiful views and the beauty of the architecture of the past . The paths are quite poor in areas, and if you have trouble walking, this could be a problem. As others have said, the price of €15 is rather steep.If they used some of the entrance fee to make it more accessible with better pathways, it would not be as bad. The toilets are really poor and are just before you get to the ticket kiosk.

We visited the Asclepieion during the week while we had a car rented (€15 per person). Overall, it was great, we both love history and sites like this on our travels, and it was fantastic. Our one, and only criticism, was that information points were few and far between, and the guides often crowded their groups in front of the information points so it didn’t leave a lot of room to read the limited information points there were. It’s worth noting that the on-site cafe, which is the only option for food and drinks on site, was quite expensive for what you got.

Amazing Greek history that don’t want to miss If you have knee problems it would be hard for you to climb but otherwise great views. Put on comfy shoes! You can see Aegean Sea 🌊 and Turkey 🇹🇷 from the highest points. Being a physician to visit Asclepieion is a must! Entrance fee costs 15 € for adults. There is a cafeteria close by if you need to grab something light to drink and eat. We took freshly made orange 🍊 juice.

Great place to visit whilst in Kos, €15 entry per person is quite expensive for what there is and Cafe is also very expensive. Besides that it is full of history and the views are great. Car park is large.
