Visit one of the most important temple ever, the Temple of Poseidon!!! A picturesque Temple, built on the edge of an impressive hill, observing the Crystal Aegean Sea. Definitely a great experience . Walk through the Temple and enjoy one of the best rated Sunsets on Tripadvisor
Head south of Athens to Cape Sounio on a private tour that takes you to the ruins of the Temple of Poseidon, dating back to the 5th century BC and known for its location perched above the sea. On the way, admire the scenery of the coastal road through Vouliagmeni and Lagonisi, winding past beaches and the sparkling water. This tour allows you to skip the hassle of finding your own way to Sounion so you can relax and enjoy a pre-planned activity.

The drive is along the coast which is beautiful. THe temple was lovely but after the Parthenon not as spectacular. The sunset was lovely but it was cold. I recommend you take a jacket with you, We were there in April and the weather can be cooler than expected.

Unfortunatley, when we got to Cape Sounion the road was closed due the the Olympic Torch expected to pass through. We got a view of the temple, but never got into the grounds.
But Andreas was an amazing guy and gave us a great history of Greece today and the ancient times. The drive along the way to get there was very beautiful.
Instead, we went to a very nice café on the water and we shared a coffee and stories with Andreas.

For our final day in Athens last July we wanted to end our trip with an unrushed drive to Cape Sounion to visit the Temple of Poseidon and make a few stops along the way. We have travelled this route previously and had a few destinations in mind and let our driver Dimitris Stavrakis know we would also like to visit some new places along the way that may be of interest. Dimitris was both friendly and informative and introduced us to Lake Vouliagmeni that we hope to visit again this year. We stopped at the Temple of Poseidon to soak in the history and spectacular views and on our return we visited a favourite restaurant for a relaxed lunch at The 4 Brothers Tavern. This was a perfect way to end another perfect vacation in Greece and we look forward to using Yomadic Tours and will hopefully see Dimitris again.

This is the second tour we booked with Andreas! He is so knowledgeable and explains anything we have questions about! He also got out and took the photos for me so both my grandmother and I could be in them with the full scenery! Not only does he have other tours, but he will work with your schedule to make sure you get wherever you need to go on time!

Phenomenal excursion with Andreas to Temple of Poseidon on the sea! It’s an easy drive from Athens. Andreas is very knowledgeable about the area and site and had ample time to explore. Stunning views of the sea! We did a morning excursion rather than Sunset and worth every minute!

This is a long journey 2 hour plus from central Athens which was very enjoyable in a private transfer. The driver was courteous and friendly.
The views are stunning and watching the sunset was breathtaking . The driver didn’t rush us and we could take our time at the temple of Poseidon. Bonus was a drop off for an evening meal at a fish bar overlooking the sea.
Well worth paying extra for a private transfer I would recommend

Amazing experience! Our driver was superb! He was personable, very nice, and made us feel cared for. The Poseidon sunset was incredible. After the sunset, he brought us to a lovely restaurant by the water and ate delicious food. Beautiful memories! He left a lasting impression.

Such an excellent day trip and host. Andreas expertly narrated the sites and timed everything perfectly to avoid all tourists .. 0 humans at the temple of Poseidon ♥️ .. we really enjoyed the Parthenon and the up close presentation of the Greek guards. Andreas is just great!

Andreas was incredibly professional and knowledgeable. He arrived promptly and was a wealth of knowledge on Athenian sites and history. We highly recommend his services and only regret we didn’t have time to book the Biblical Tour as well!
