Second time to the Acropolis, first was right after reopening from the COVID fiasco, when no guided tours were allowed. Needless to say, this tour really opened our eyes to the historical, cultural, political and architectural background that enriched our visit immensely from the first time when we just walked around and read the posted placards. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and entertaining and made the visit that much more memorable. Worth doing so you can fully appreciate the Parthenon.
