Very good experience. The place is beautiful and the beach under the temple is very nice. We could. Get into the sea and eat by the beach.

Alexis is the best! My family and I did multiple trips with him and we had the best time! He was prompt and professional. We were entertained the whole time too! I highly recommend using him! He also educated us on all of the different areas of Athens.

Alexis our driver was incredible - he gave us so much information- took us to a wonderful place for dinner and showed us great sites along the way. It was a truly spiritual experience seeing the sunset at Poseidon temple. It was like nothing I had ever experienced before l. Definitely do this trip and request Alexis as your driver

"We had an unforgettable private tour to the Temple of Poseidon and Cape Sounio with our fantastic guide and driver Alexis. Not only was he knowledgeable, but his humor and warmth made the experience even more enjoyable. He shared fascinating stories that brought history to life. We drive through the Riviera and many small beach towns. A quick stop at the beautiful Lake Vouliagmeni and then we were ready for the perfect sunset time at the Temple of Poseidon. Alexis treated us to an amazing memorable dinner at a traditional Greek taverna, where they graciously prepared delicious vegetarian meals for us, even around closing time. We now know who to call next time we are in Greece. Traveling to places is all about making memories and we mad a memorable evening thanks to Alexis. Highly recommend this tour and our awesome guide Alexis for a perfect blend of culture, history, culinary delights and picture perfect locations.

We've used Alex a number of times before and keep coming back because he's the best! Unfortunately this time he was sick but Christos was an excellent substitute. We enjoyed the tour and he took us to the best restaurant for lunch - off the beaten track with delicious and generous servings. Driving was excellent and he was fun and informative. Alex is easy to communicate with, flexible on itineraries and always helpful and kind.

Our trip to Athens was made many times more awesome because we booked a taxi from Alexis. Not a single dull moment around him. Knowledgeable across not just touristy stuff but in general across a vast genre of things, he was full of rich, fun stories, superb recommendations of places that define the phrase "hidden gems", amazing enthusiasm for clicking pictures(matched mine, and that's saying something) and of course great car and drive. We had booked two day trips, one to delphi and the other to cape sounion and they both were amazing. Alexis goes above and beyond and we are still enjoying his recommendations while on the rest of our trips in completely other islands where there's no commercial arrangement with him- just friendship and a big heart 💕 Totally recommend.

My husband and I had a great trip to Temple of Poseidon with Alexis from Athens Taxi Wagon. Alexis is so knowledgeable. He is very familiar with the sites in Greece. On the way to the Temple, we stopped for a nice dinner in a small village. At the Temple, he told us exactly what to do to maximize our time there. After the Temple closed, he showed us another area on site that we could walk to for a good picture. He never rushed us. I highly recommend using Athens Taxi Wagon and Alexis for any of the tours/services he offers.
