Temple of Poseidon is amazing. The trip took about one hour and half to get there. The temple closes at 3:20pm during the winter time. If you got plenty of time in Athens and wanted to get out of the city for a few hours, this trip should be a good option while you would appreciate the coastal view as well. Our guide Kostas was friendly and shared quite a lot of Athens history and culture. Riding the luxury minivan was pleasant for us.

Kostas was wonderful. This is definitely the way to book an excursion with luxury, flexibility and comfort where we have a say in the itinerary. avoid the big buses with strict time schedules and an overcrowded bus. We had such a great experience we reached out to Kostas again on short notice to transport us to lake vouliagmeni to spend the day and he made it happen!! Thanks again Kostas!!!

Amazing! Our driver Kostas was fantastic. Can’t say enough. The drive and stops were perfect. Everything we could expect and more. Stopped for dinner after and had a great meal. Kostas was full of knowledge and helped us with some Greek language. Great time. Would highly recommend and will ask for him to take us anywhere 😊💕

Kostas is one of the best things we found in Athens! This was our second private tour with him and the most amazing experience. He is knowledgeable, and customizes your tour for your liking. We feel like we have a friend in Athens now! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private tour with a first class professional!

Kostos filled our day with song, humor, sites, and great local food! We got out of the city and saw all the beaches, ruins, and enjoyed a wonderful day! Cannot recommend highly enough.
