Acropolis Museum Tour
Overview of the tour in Athens
We'll meet below the owl at the entrance to the new Acropolis Museum to enter one of the best museums in the world. This building is built over the remains of an old Athenian neighborhood, where we can admire buildings dating from the 6th century B.C. until the 7th century AD.
The museum houses all the sculptural remains found in the archaeological campaigns carried out both on the Acropolis and on its southern slope. Our licensed guide will unravel little by little the most fascinating remains that have survived to this day, and you'll be able to visualize how the different temples dedicated to the goddess Athena that have existed throughout the centuries in the Sacred Rock were decorated.
You'll be fascinated admiring the original Caryatids, an ornate window of the Erechtheion, the pediment of the first temple dedicated to Athena, etc.; you'll be able to see the room prepared to house the friezes of the Parthenon with all the pieces that are already gathered on Greek soil; but above all, you'll enjoy the exquisiteness of ancient Greek art.
