Half-day bus tour from Athens to Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon, with sunset option, archaeologist stories, and coastal views.
“The Temple of Poseidon is beautiful and the views are stunning, but the tour itself felt a bit underwhelming. The guides were very friendly and gave just the right amount of commentary on the bus, which made the long drive (about 1.5 hours each way) more pleasant. Once there, we had about an hour to explore. That’s enough to walk the site, but not really enough to also relax at the small café. Entry is an additional €20, which feels expensive for such a small site (though not the tour company’s fault). Overall, this tour is convenient if you want transport arranged for you, but you’re essentially paying for the…”

A half-day Cape Sounion trip with pick-up, air-conditioning, and a Temple of Poseidon ticket included, plus big Aegean views.
“The drive had a very scenic route along the sea but our tour guide (I think Hara) was not entertaining at all and did not seem that knowledgeable about the tour (explained things that were quite obvious or part of common knowledge, she also repeated herself so many times to make it look like she was talking more). The temple was beautiful and I am glad to have seen it but don’t book this tour, the cost is not worth the time spent there. We were done looking at the temple in 20 minutes, the tour said they would give us an hour on site so we went to grab…”
Private Athens day trip to Lake Vouliagmeni thermal spa and the Temple of Poseidon, with a comfortable drive, time to swim, and Greek bites.
“Our guide George was really amazing. A local Athenian his whole life, he knows all about the country, economics, locations to see and food to eat. He remembered each of our names and I could not recommend him more! I would use him everywhere we go if I could :) The lake was beautiful and very peaceful. You can order drinks and food next to the water. But the water was very cold this time of year so might not be worth the $20 per person price. Definitely bring a towel cause they rent them for $40 a piece! Cape Sounion was beautiful but need to make the time to…”

Bus day trip from Athens to Cape Sounion for Temple of Poseidon sunset, Thorikos theater stop, and an audio guide with Wi-Fi.
“We had a perfect sunset with the temple. We have lots of memories and pictures. The tour itself was pretty good. The only place to eat was at the temple and it was slow, busy and aggravating. Also the bathrooms weren’t working so we had to make another stop which I was great til for. These issues distracted from the quality of the tour, but it was still a good time.”

Lovely drive along the coast and George patiently waited for us to enjoy sunset at Temple of Poseidon. Very nice vehicle and our driver shared a lot about Greece and history with us. Highly recommend this tour and this company.”
Cape Sounion sunset and the Temple of Poseidon from Athens, with an archaeologist-led bus ride and photo time, plus separate site entry.
“If you're short on time and don't like wasting money, I strongly suggest you don't book this. The guides are the only good thing about this tour, being very kind. Apart from that, you're paying for a very expensive bus trip. The said "air-conditioner" must be the friends we made along the way, because everyone was sweating the whole way there. The wifi didn't work for half of the trip, had to keep reconnecting. You couldn't understand anything the guide was saying from the back of the bus, so even the bus description has flaws. You then get to the temple, and get informed that you'll have to go to…”
