Climbing up the ladders of fake, re-constructed Trojan horse in the entrance of the site is an inevitable part of Troy experience. Better do it on weekdays as the ladders and the interior of the horse itself may be crowded at weekends by schoolchildren on a schooltrip a situation which makes climbing up and down those steep stairs rather unpleasent. Winter is a fantastic time to visit Troy, as there are very few tourists around and you may even get the fake horse to yourself.
