Athens: Cape Sounio & Poseidon Temple Trip with Audio Guide

1.Cape Sounio & Poseidon Temple Trip with Audio Guide

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 4,521 reviews · 5 hours · from $23Our pick

Ride an air-conditioned bus from central Athens through seaside villages to Cape Sounion. An escort, audio guide, and sunset timing make the trip easy, while guides such as George, Vasilis, and Sotiris add stories and humor. Temple entry costs extra, and the cliff-top site can be windy and crowded.

“All was good. IRL Guide was helpful and the audio guide was pretty informative too. Transport was smooth and without issue. Arriving at the temple the views are incredible but unfortunately we did not see the sunset due to the cloud cover of December - nothing we can control. Would definitely recommend coming on a clear warm day. Queues for the cafe and bathroom are long so I would recommend going before entering the temple.”

“If you get a guide and hear the stories you will benefit so much more than just walking around with your guide book. Do this early in the morning or as late in the afternoon as you can so you’re not slowly walking around in the heat. The museum is good- and air conditioned! I thought the best story was Samuel the Cobbler and his relationship to Socrates.”
