What To Expect
Temple of Poseidon
Set out to a private sunset day trip to Cape Sounion. Our trip starts with a wonderful drive along the Athens Rivera. During this relaxing ride you’ll enjoy splendid views of the Saronic Gulf while passing through some of Athens’ most beautiful suburbs, including Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Varkiza. Arriving at the Cape Sounion, you will visit the 5th century B.C. Temple of Poseidon with its magnificent panoramic view of the Aegean Sea (on a clear day you can see several islands). Cape Sounion has long played an important part in Greek mythology and history, and the first recorded mention of it occurs in the Odyssey, as the last safe landing before Poseidon scattered the returning Greek navy. As god of the sea, Poseidon was very important for ancient Greeks, and the scale of the Temple at Cape Sounion reflects that. After visiting the Temple, filled from the beauty, the history and the culture of this site you are set to admire one of the most amazing sunsets you could ever imagine. Similarly, when the sun begins to slowly touch the sea it is the perfect moment for a glass of wine, before having your dinner in a scenic, nearby seafront tavern. Absorb the far-reaching views over the Aegean and take unique photos. On your way back, enjoy a delicious waffle with ice cream that only locals know.

He took great pictures of our group, took us to a wonderful seaside restaurant with awesome food. Overall I would highly recommend this private tour, ask for Theo. Well worth the $!

5.00A great way to visit the temple of Poseidon. Melina picked us up from our apartment door and gave us a scenic drive of the coast. She was extremely informative and shared her deep knowledge of Greek mythology and history with us. She kept my father entertained for most of the drive. We asked for an extra hour to swim and they were happy to include this for a small extra charge. Dinner was really wonderful, at a family run seaside taverna. Delicious! Also, important that we booked this experience quite last minute and they were able to accommodate our needs. Communication was very good.
Wow! Such a Wonderful Sight and Experience!
