Athens Private Tour: Cape Sounio Half Day Tour

During this relaxing ride you’ll enjoy splendid views of the Saronic Gulf while passing through some of Athens’ most beautiful suburbs, including  Hellinikon Olympic coblex, Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Varkiza.

Begin your private tour with a pick up from your Athens central hotel and travel in your luxury air conditioned mini bus toward the Attica Riviera.

On a clear day you can see at least 7 of the Greek islands. In addition to the views, visit the famous 5th-Century BC Temple of Poseidon, dedicated to the God of the Sea. The beauty of the surviving Doric columns has inspired many poets, including Lord Byron who carved his name on one of the columns. Walk back in time and feel the beat of Ancient Greece as you stare across magical views of crystal clear waters.
