Just walk all the way down Ifaistou street, the pedestrian zone which begins below the “Athens Flea Market” sign and at the end of the street turn left on Agiou Philippou. Then turn left again on Adrianou and after a few meters, you will find the entrance to the site on your right, at 24, Adrianou street. Once you have presented your ticket at the entrance, you may pick a spot near the sign overlooking the site to listen to the first set of stories.
