È stata una bellissima esperienza! Probabilmente l'attività più impressionante di tutto il soggiorno ad Atene. Tutto è stato ben organizzato e la guida George è stata una piacevole compagnia durante il viaggio. Se scegliete l'opzione con il biglietto incluso vi verrà fornito prima dell'arrivo a Capo Sounio.

Il pullman è arrivato puntuale, la nostra guida è stata molto simpatica ha usato parole semplici per spiegare ciò che avremmo visto. Ci ha consigliato cuffie per l'audio guida. Abbiamo fatto una pausa al punto panoramico. Il tempio al tramonto è meraviglioso il paesaggio da lassù incantevole!

It was a great experience, it's great to see the temple of Poseidon and the views around are just magical. The sunset was spectacular and totally worth it. The restaurant was good and meals priced fair, just watch out for big hornets flying around the outside dinning area pinching food.

This was an amazing tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area and views at sunset were breathtaking. We were surprised that their was a restaurant at the site and enjoyed a great dinner right before the sunset. 10 out of 10!

A half-day journey to Cape Sounion immerses you in breathtaking Aegean views and the timeless presence of the Temple of Poseidon.

What to expect

At Cape Sounion, you’ll explore the cliffside viewpoint surrounding the Temple of Poseidon—one of the most striking landmarks of ancient Greece. While entry to the temple is not included, the grounds offer unobstructed views of its Doric columns, the Aegean Sea, and the very cliff where Lord Byron carved his name. Insightful commentary from your guide adds depth to the myths, maritime history, and architectural significance of this sacred cape.
