Experience the beauty of Greece with our Cape Sounion and Temple of Poseidon tour, available in both morning and sunset options. Each tour offers a unique way to see this stunning area, complete with picturesque photo stops like the picturesque Vouliagmeni Lake.

The drive itself is a treat, showcasing the sparkling Saronic Gulf and charming suburbs of Athens. The main attraction, the Temple of Poseidon, sits majestically on the cliffs of Cape Sounion, where history and myth come alive.

As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky and sea are painted with vibrant colors, creating a magical backdrop for the ancient temple. It's a breathtaking sight and perfect for memorable photos.

From May to October, both tours include a beach stop for a refreshing swim and a leisurely seaside lunch.

The tour guide and bus driver were very knowledgeable and helpful.
Viator were the only company offering a day tour, all the others were sunset packages and with time constrictions this suited us.

Had a great time with Iliana. She was a knowledgeable tour guide! There needs to be a recording as you go see the temple.

Teddy was an amazing tour guide (and a great comedian)! The sunset at the Cape was breathtaking and well worth the trip.

We enjoyed our tour with Teddy and Sotirios .
Teddy was fun and knowledgeable ( rare combination nova day). The only thing , I personally didn’t need that much time on the beach, I would rather start tour later or maybe stay longer on the lake

The sunset was beautiful but the overall trip would have been much better on my own.
The van was small, crowded, and stuffy.
We made 2 stops that were not needed and just killed time.
The beach stop was not really a place to swim, it was too chilly to swim, and you had to pay for a chair on the beach. 🤨
The guide wasn’t really necessary. He talked a lot but not about anything that could not have been on a handout. He didn’t accompany the group at the Temple to explain things about it and the tickets there weren’t included either. Another €10…
This is basically a crowded shuttle service.

Met some great people on this tour. The tour guide was phenomenal. The sights and the beach were amazing although the water was a little cold 🤣. The only complaint is that it was over so quick!

This was a very informative and fun trip. Teddy our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He knew all our names and kept us engaged throughout the trip. The beach stop and watching the sun set from the Temple of Poseidon were definitely a highlight. Teddy and driver Soteris made the tour memorable.
