This is the only guided Acropolis Museum Tour on YouTube! In this video, Jessica the Museum Guide (that’s me!) takes you on a fully guided tour of one of the world’s greatest museums, located in Athens, Greece. This isn't just a museum about Ancient Greece - it IS Ancient Greece. Whether you’re planning a visit to Athens or you just want to enjoy the museum from the comfort of your sofa, this is the tour for you. Today, we are exploring the first three galleries of the museum: The Gallery of the South Slope, The Archaic Gallery, and The Other Periklean Monuments – and don’t worry, I will explain what all of that means! Part 2 will be released in the next few weeks, so be sure to click the bell to be notified! That tour will include the Parthenon Sculptures – and of course, the controversies surrounding their presence at the British Museum. 👉🏻Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe – leave a comment and let me know what you think about this wonderful museum. 👉🏻Join me for exclusive content ONLY on my Patreon: www.patreon.com/themuseumguide - an extra video every single month, and invitations to free in-person tours. 👉🏻Follow me on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/jessicathemuseumguide/ and on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/themuseumguide 👉🏻As always, thanks for watching.
