According to ekathimerini.com, Greece plans to offer special tours of its most popular tourist attraction to few visitors outside the regular visiting hours.

A spokesperson from Greece’s Culture Ministry explained that the new service for the Acropolis will be limited to a maximum of four groups, each consisting of up to five people. The cost will be 5,000 euros per group, and individuals who are willing to cover the entire group fee are also welcome to take the tour on their own.
