Tour Overview

Escape the bustling city of Athens and embark on a scenic drive along the mesmerizing and beautiful Athenian Riviera. Our destination is Cape Sounio, the southernmost tip of the Attica peninsula, famous for its majestic Temple of Poseidon.

Built in the 5th century BC to honor the God of the Sea, the temple stands proudly on a rocky hill overlooking the Aegean Sea. Not only will you discover fascinating history, but you will also experience what many consider to be the most breathtaking sunset in all of Greece.
