Pleasant ride to visite the Temple of Poseidon
Clean and comfortable bus. The guide information is provided via audio devices with prerecorded tracks that are automatically activated based on geographical location. The audio device allows selection of preferred language. I would have personally preferred live guidance info.
Once on site, I would have a appreciated a little more time for the sunset (sunset was at 20h45 and we had to be in the bus for 8h55).
Overall, it was a very good tour.

Beautiful family trip to...
Beautiful family trip to Sounio! 3 adults and 3 kids - taken in a clean van safely to dinner and then Sounio for the sunset. George was our driver and he was friendly and engaging with the adults and kids. Dinner was literally next to the sea with amazing fish! Sounio was just gorgeous at sunset! Great tour!

Our tour was with Jason....
Our tour was with Jason. We had an amazing time, the sunset was beautiful, the vehicle was very clean and comfortable. Jason took us to an authentic greek seafood restaurant located on the water on the way home. The food was delicious. Jason was very friendly and accommodating to our needs. I would highly recommend this tour.

relaxing and beautiful
If you ride the double-decker city tour bus, the first half of this tour is the same...the ride along the beach. However, it is worth it to get out easily to the Temple of Poseidon. This tour stops at Cape Sounion and you can eat at the beach bar...the food is not bad, but don't expect anything but beach bar food. Julia, our guide was well informed.

Lovely site!
This is an excellent site to visit and the drive is scenic. The reason for 4 stars vs 5 is because we didn’t have an hour at the Temple of Poseidon as advertised. This made our visit rushed. A shorter time at the beach stop would have been better. The van was comfortable and clean and the guide was informative. Beautiful sunset!

A lovely excursion!
We loved the experience, overall. We did not stop to swim at the beach, but it was lovely weather to sit and have a glass of wine at the restaurant on the beach. The temple and sunset was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and Vivian did a wonderful job of sharing information along the way. Our only concern was just the driving and how fast our driver seemed to be going along all the coastal curves. While we appreciate efficiency, a comfortable and more secure drive would have been appreciated.

Our driver Dimitris was fantastic!

Beautiful ride up to...
Beautiful ride up to Temple of Poseidon. Our guide Kat gave us interesting information on the ride up. The cost to go up to the temple was expensive for what it was but still interesting to see the temple and the views.

Bus tour was very good,...
Bus tour was very good, but disappointing that you're not allowed to walk through the temple of Poseidon after paying 20 euros per person.

Excellent quick trip to ancient history
The perfect ending to my vacation in Athens. Vasilis, our guide, was very informative, naturally
funny, and professional. The views were great. And it was relaxing to sit on the rocks and wait for the sunset for great pictures The bus was very clean and efficient.

Beautiful ruins with a great driver
Our driver George was absolutely fantastic. It was so much better than Acropolis which was completely overcrowded. George gave us lots of great information for the rest of our trip. We opted to do the dinner stop and the restaurant was fantastic.

When to visit

One of the most iconic sights in mainland Greece, Cape Sounion is a must for photographers, Instagrammers, and history buffs.
The 19th-century poet Lord Byron carved his name into one of the columns here. Please don’t follow his example, although plenty of travelers have.
The site includes a café-restaurant, a gift shop, and restrooms.
Slopes and uneven terrain present some challenges, but it’s possible to get close to the Temple of Poseidon using a wheelchair. The steep beach path is not wheelchair-accessible.
