Your tour begins with pick-up from your hotel or another meeting point in Athens, either in the morning or afternoon, depending on your schedule. Your driver will greet you with a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, and you’ll start your journey towards Cape Sounion, the southernmost tip of Attica.

The route from Athens to Sounion takes about 1.5 hours and follows the beautiful coastline of the Athenian Riviera. During the drive, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the stunning views of the Saronic Gulf, the luxurious suburbs of Athens, and coastal areas such as Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Varkiza. Your driver can make brief stops along the way for you to take photos or enjoy the views.

The main stop of your tour is Cape Sounion, where the imposing Temple of Poseidon is located. Sounion was an important site for ancient Greeks, as it was dedicated to the god of the sea, Poseidon. The temple, built in the 5th century BC, stands proud above the turquoise waters of the Aegean and offers one of the most impressive views in Greece.

At the archaeological site, you’ll have time to explore the Temple of Poseidon, learn about its history, and enjoy the unique view the site offers. Your driver can provide information about the historical and cultural significance of the temple, as well as the myths surrounding it. This spot is ideal for enjoying a spectacular sunset if your schedule allows.

After your visit to Sounion, your driver will transfer you back to Athens. During the return trip, you can relax in the vehicle and enjoy the view, as the route along the coastline is equally beautiful at sunrise or sunset. The return to your meeting point or hotel takes about 1.5 hours.
