The 5th-century BC Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio is best experienced at sunset. Perched on cliffs above the Aegean, its ruins, surrounded by sea on three sides, offer breathtaking views. Mentioned in Homer's The Odyssey, this iconic spot also drew English poet Lord Byron in 1811, who carved his name into one of the temple's Doric columns.

So a Nice trip with Manos All was perfect the driver,the car and the restaurant Thank you
We booked this after our first tour with Glykeria! She is amazing:) We had a great and relaxing time. Would recommend!
Manos was very informative about explaining history & showing scenic views in Athens. His Mercedes was comfortable & clean. Great for couple who want to have a private tour like us! I strongly recommend to use him as a tour guide!
This was a lovely trip exploring the outskirts of Athens, stopping at various scenic spots before driving along the coast to reach the Temple of Poseidon. It was a beautiful spot with lovely views of the Aegean Sea. My guide, Giorgos Kalantzis, was very knowledgeable and a great guide! If you are short on time but want to get a sense of wider Athens and beyond, I would highly recommend!
George Fokas Professional Guide was so wonderful I want to suggest that his employer give to him a pair of over the calf black boots and a red cape BECAUSE HE IS SUPER!! In making the reservation I probably goofed up and we got signed up in error for the Acropolis tour when I was trying to do the Possiden Temple private tour . He called me to arrange Acropolis itinerary but quickly realized that was wrong and fixed it perfectly. He took us on a great tour and we did exactly what we wanted. He threw in some cool history of mythological nature. I give him my highest recommendation. My wife does too. I gave him 150 Euro tip if that tells you how good he was.
One of the highlights of our few-day stay in Athens—this is a must-visit! Breathtaking views and rich history await, all enhanced by our fantastic driver and guide, Manos. He shared fascinating myths and explained the significance of the site in detail. A wonderful experience all around!
We have been traveling for fifty years and this tour guide stood out as one of our best. Beautiful car. Excellent driver. Very knowledgeable and engaging. Easy to be with for several hours.
This was an our second tour with Eirini and equally as excellent as the first! A wonderful half trip to view the Greek coastline and see the Temple of Poseidon. Highly recommend!
We had the most perfect guided tour to the Temple,the most beautiful sunset we had ever seen... Glykeria our driver was so well informed,she explained all the history of ancient Greece and we had fun with her stories!Τhe car was luxurious and very clean!She gave us the best day of our trip in Athens and a beautiful experience!
It was the second time we chose them since we were completely satisfied from the first time. Excellent car, with water, internet and unlimited comfort with the vehicle. The driver, like the first time, was Manos, who explained as best he could stories about the temple of Poseidon and Athens of course. Another unforgettable experience with them. Thank you!
It was quite an experience! The temple itself is breathtaking. The whole tour was organised perfectly to the last detail by Manos who is very polite, professional and welcoming. The car is very luxurious and clean! Definitely recommend anyone to take the tour!
Impeccable services from Manos, apart from being a professional driver he is also a wonderful man. He explained several things about our visit to Sounion. We will definitely use Manos' services again.Thank you Manos
The experience was amazing! Manos was so friendly and he told us all about the monuments we were looking. Excellent knowledge and the route was filling the day!! I recommend him to all ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The best tour ever!!!Manos is the most incredible knowledge driver but at the same time entertaining. I felt like I was on a trip with a friend. I only regret that I did not have more time to make other excursions with him
I will be giving no stars!!! The trip never happened! Confusion with pick up location and Driver/Tour person was very rude and did not offer any solutions!!! Very disappointed with how this was handled!!!!
Eirine was wonderful. The views were great. Authentic meal at 4 Brothers was fabulous. Great afternoon.
This was a wonderful tour. We made three interesting stops. One was the new cultural center in Athens. It was a wonderful viewing spot and we really enjoyed it. The second stop was a quick stop for pictures at a thermal lake. It looked like a nice spot to spend an afternoon. If we had more time we would have loved to spend a day there. Then we stopped at the Temple of Poseidon. Our tour guide Eirini was fabulous. She was a good driver and very professional. We asked her about a good bakery and she made sure to find one for us to try. We definitely recommend her as a tour guide.
Marcos is an exceptional guide. He takes time to understand your interest and knowledge level, before filling your drive-time with well-told stories that you won't read in the guidebooks. You arrive at the sites ready to appreciate them properly, and at the best times for photos, and to avoid traffic!
Our driver was very informative. Love the additional stops on the way. Our driver was also very nice!
Georgios was an excellent guide - giving us historical and current perspectives, stopping at points of interest along the way to the Poseidon Temple.
Interesting sites to see along the 1-2 hour drive along the Athens Riviera, the coast. Temple of Poseidon well worth it. Irini was knowledgeable and a safe driver.
Manos did a great job. Right on time was very informative and was good at giving us some local flavor. Absolutely recommend!
This is the perfect way to tour the Athenian Riviera and the Temple of Poseidon. You will make a few interesting stops along the way as well. Manos was a great guide and entertained us the entire trip. It was both educational and entertaining, we would definitely do this again.
This was an incredible trip! Our driver George was so full of knowledge and very personable. The 4 hours went by so quickly because we had such great conversation from the moment he picked us up. His car was a luxury vehicle!
Great trip. Very insightful. Nice to get a personal touch to the entire trip. Everything flowed really nicely.
Good car, excellent driver and tour guide. A very pleasant trip, well worthwhile the trip. Can stop at various towns and places as you like and instruct the driver to go see what you like. Very nice car
Highly recommend this service if you are traveling to Athens Greece. Manos is an exceptional tourguide and driver. We booked several days with him for tours in and around Athens in April 2024; he treated us like family. Manos was always on time, his tours were nicely paced, not rushed at all, full of ideas but flexible, and he is a great communicator. Manos is passionate about his business and the history of Greece. We learned so much from his love of Greece through his tours; its history, its people, as well as current culture and events. Taking at least one tour while you are in Athens with Manos is a must, he is an amazing person!
My friend and I took a wonderful tour with Glykeria who gave us the best day of our trip in Athens. Every aspect of the tour was well done - the itinerary, the choice of sites, her amazingly knowledge, the transportation, and the plentiful laughter & entertainment. We also found Glykeria to be very well-traveled with interesting stories of her own. We could not have asked for a better experience! Ask for Glykeria !!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND 💯
Glykeria is an amazing driver and person. She was kind and accommodating and full of interesting knowledge, stories, and recommendations. While this was a transfer, it felt more like a guided tour. Because of a busy day, this was the only way we could have gotten to the Temple of Poseidon and it was well worth it. Glycerin was waiting for us right on time at the end of our last tour with cold bottles water to boot. She showed us special secret spots with phenomenal views. Highly recommend.
Great mid-day tour outside of Athens. Our guide was friendly and fun. She pointed out some spots, like the beautiful cultural center, that we would have never thought to visit. Temple of Poseidon was worth the trip and we enjoyed our lunch at the top!
This was a top-notch tour. We booked late the night before we were to dock on our Mediterranean cruising. Eirini was a wonderful guide and very accommodating. We were away from the madding crowds but still saw amazing important places in Athens. We recommend Eirini 100% for a extraordinary tour in Athens.
We were there during the floods of September 2023. Our guide Glykeria saved our holidays. She showed us magical spots on the way to the Poseidon temple that we never would have seen otherwise and helped us take great pictures. Very knowledgeable, calm, excellent driving skills and she took care of everything. She knew exactly where to go and knew exactly how long it took to get there in time. A true expert. She listened to us and offered us a tailor-made experience. I would have booked her for more tours in and around Athens if there would have been time.
Wow wow wow where do I begin?! Manos contacted us straight away with a variety of options that we could do on our tour, and once selected our adventure began! From the get go Manos was friendly, informative and a fantastic story teller! He took us to Stavros Niarchos Cultural Centre, which at first we weren't sure about, but found it incredibly interesting, Flisvos Marina and then to the Temple of Poseidon (the sunset was absolutely incredible), all the while making sure were comfortable, chatting away and joking along with us too. To top it all off, Manos showed genuine interest in the both of us and helped us plan our brief road trip. We went to every site that he recommended and, I kid you not, it was an amazing experience! He told us of all the amazing places to go and see, where to sleep and where to eat, and every single one was top notch! Manos, you have touched both our lives with your knowledge, personality and your amazing story telling, thank you so much for everything and you will hopefully see us again soon!
I booked this tour at the last minute and they were kind enough to accommodate me. My guide Eirini was the best!! As a solo female traveler, I felt safe and she was very knowledgeable in the area. I had so much fun with her as my guide. I also slept a couple of times while she was driving cause I was tired after flying in from the US and her driving skills were excellent. That’s how much I felt safe and good around her! Highly recommend this tour especially with Eirini. 😘
We enjoyed the gorgeous costal views of the journey to Temple of Poseidon and the marina, but it has a lot to do with us really wanting to pay tribute to Poseidon, the god of the sea, and had very realistic expectations. Our driver was trustworthy friendly and helpful. For anyone looking for a comfortable car and a driver, we would recommend her service. Be prepared to enjoy the scenery of the coast and beaches, and admire a small scaled ruins.
Manos our drive,r was exceptional, super knowledgeable, educational and informative! He really helped us to understand the Greek culture and history with many informative stories and insights! This is a must see destination, especially at sunset! Thank you Manos! You were terrific!
I spent 17 days in Greece, we visited 5 islands, and this tour was one of my favorite parts of the entire trip. The Temple of Poseidon itself was magical to see up close and personal, but with the sunset aspect included it was beyond amazing. This was the least crowded ruin of all the ones we visited too! It was easy to get pictures without having any other tourist in the shot. Manos made the drive enjoyable by teaching us the I rich history of Athens and this site in particular. The dinner spot was delicious, it had a gorgeous view of the coast at night, and we had the entire place to ourself. I cannot say enough good things about this tour- or any tour hosted by this group. I think we did 3 overall. 10/10
Manos and Ilias are great! We are fron the US (Arizona) got a taxi ride to and from the airport, to the Temple of Poseidon. The Temple of Poseidon was one of the best sunsets I have seen ever! Both are helpful and my nice to talk about Greece.
A very beautiful day with Manos, everything was perfect
Immaculate service and top professionalism. From the first communication I realized that I was dealing with a professional who respects both his job and the client.
An unparalleled experience.A tour you make as a visitor of Athens should not be missed.Manos is the best guide guide that exists.Unheardful in telling us about the history not only of the temple but also of Athens.Sure the best experience
Our decision to choose the specific service for this mini escape, exceeded any expectations we had! The luxurious transport combined with the tour / tour from Mano, left us excellent impressions, enjoying one of the most beautiful areas of Attica!
A new car , a trained driver , we had an excellent experience . Our driver , arrived on time , gave us a lot of information about the area , one of the best tours we have done .
