A must in Athens ! The guide was really effective at explaining everything to us. We got headsets to hear better and meeting point was easy to reach.

Wonderful guide (Poseidon’s daughter) and let’s not forget the driver! There were broken clouds at sunset but it was still beautiful.

This tour was great, we made stops to take pictures. We had enough time to explore on our own. The guide was charismatic and very knowledgeable.

Athena was very knowledgeable and funny. Took us to different spots and all. Once you at the Temple it’s a total different ball game. Wished the tour included the ticket to get in but once you inside and you wait for the sunset it was fantastic! The Temple of Poseidon simple looked amazing. Thank you so much!

What a great afternoon! We very much enjoyed the commentary by Lily who makes the Greek myths come to life with funny stories, provides some charming insights into Greek life and takes the time to learn the names of the people on the tour (I have no idea how she does this with 2 x 20 people per day!). The bus is super clean and comfortable and the stops along the way are short and sweet. The time at Cape Sounion was adequate for a short ramble around the cape (take the long path for dramatic vistas and clear blue water), a tour around the temple and then the absolutely gorgeous sunset. Great day and many thanks to Lily and the driver who did an excellent job.

We had a great time with the lovely knowledgeable Athena as our guide and Salvador as our driver. The collection and small comfortable minivan were paying a bit extra for, the stop at the lake and photo stop were a bonus too. The only thing that would have made it perfect was if we had a chance to take a photo of the beautiful sky on the way back. I would definitely recommend.
