Description

Afternoon Tour to Cape Sounion and Temple of Poseidon

Visit the remarkable area of Cape Sounion located on the Hilltop overlooking the Sea in the southern suburbs of Athens City. Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion built in 44 B.C., and many of its original Doric Columns are still standing. One of the columns has a graffito left by none other than Lord Byron in the early 1800s. Drive by the idyllic beaches of the Saronic Gulf – Glyfada, Vouliagmeni and Varkiza areas as well and take a pick at people lives outside of Athens City…

What to Expect – Itinerary

During this Afternoon Tour to Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion we will have a wonderful drive along the scenic coastal road of the Athens riviera which offers a splendid view of the Saronic Gulf.

Passing through the most elegant summer resorts (Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, Varkiza) with wonderful sandy or pebbled beaches on one side and luxurious hotels like Cape Sounion and Grand Resort Lagonisi on the other, we will arrive to Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion.

My partner and I enjoyed this tour a lot. We had the chance to know the center of Athens and the beautiful Sounio! The lunch at the restaurant was also delicious!

Convenient hours

Its very convenient that Hop in sightseeing runs this tour a couple of time per day. We arrived in Athens early in the morning and were leaving for Crete late in the evening so we were very lucky to get to have this tour in between and miss nothing out of Athens!!

Lovely Afternoon

When people told me that Cape Sounio was one of the best destinations in Athens I did not really believe it, but they where right. I love the site and I really had a pleasant afternoon.

My mother and I took this tour on a cloudy, cool and windy day in late May, but it made for dramatic pictures of the Temple of Apollo and Cape Sounion. The temple was remarkably intact and the many partridges on the site were very cute! The drive to Sounion and back was beautifully smooth and the guidance impecable! thank you!
