Happy camper

Caroline_M, Oct 2025

Really enjoyed this tour. Too bad we had an overcast day … but you get what you get. Still it was amazing to see and the views of the ocean en route were great. Kudos to our guide who had a bilingual group ( Fr/en). And well done to our driver on those hairpin turns and dealing with the traffic. . Hotel pick up and drop off great. Worth the trip just for the experience!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour despite the overcast weather. Sounion's beauty shines in every condition, and we’re glad the ocean views and overall experience still made the day memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words about our guide and driver—managing a bilingual group and those famous hairpin turns is no small feat, and they’ll be so happy to hear your compliments. We're also pleased that the hotel pick-up and drop-off added comfort to your experience. Thank you again for choosing us. We hope to welcome you back on a sunnier day for even more unforgettable views! MTM Customer Support

Ruined Our Evening

Eric_S, May 2025

They forgot to pick us up. Very irresponsible and unprofessional. We waited at the designated area in the hot sun for over an hour. Ruined the evening.

Excellent sunset on the last day of 2024

Mala_A, Jan 2025

The drive to the cape return is 3 hours. Was good to see the sunset on a clear day and on the last day of 2024. The bus picks up people at designated spots and there are several stops on the way back. The guide was informative and would point out stuff to us which wasn't part of the tour. Great that it wasn't a very long tour.

Lovely introduction to Greece

Debra_A, Sep 2024

We really enjoyed the timing of the sunset tour. The ruins are definitely highlighted with the sunset as a dramatic backdrop.

Beautiful

Dale_T, Jul 2024

Well worth the long drive. The bus was comfortable and the views along the coast were amazing. Everyone was very nice and accommodating.

Beautiful temple, and great drive from Athens

Catherine_M, May 2024

The temple was great and the drive there was lovely. The guide (Niki?) was okay but not overly engaging. It sounded like she was reading from a script. The view was spectacular, but unfortunately we went on an evening with lots of clouds. It would be breathtaking on a clear evening.

Really Fun Experience

Rebeca_A, Aug 2023

Really fun experience! The tour guide and driver were great. Going in the evening (530pm tour) is the way to go for the full sunset timeframe.
