He showed us the Parthenon and Erechtheion atop the hill, and told us who built them and why. George provided the history after construction that led to their current appearance, before leading us back down to the Acropolis Museum for a short tour. An amazing site, with so much to take in, was made even better by George’s knowledge and passion for Athens history and culture. Thank you!”
