We’ll make am momentary stop to see the Vouliagmeni Lake, recognized for its story, having been formed from the abruptly collapsing and sinking roof of a cave.

Following our captivating coastal journey through beautiful villages, landscapes and towns, we’ll head towards the Attica’s southern tip known as Cape Sounion. Here, you’ll witness the ancient temple of Poseidon, dating back to 444 BC and dedicated to the sea god. This particular location is associated with Greek mythology and the tale of King Theseus and the Minotaur beast. The view of the Aegean Sea from up here is not something you’d forget. Should you come in the later part of the day, you’ll see one of the most breathtaking sunsets you’ve ever experienced.

Great service - Andreas provided outstanding service. Friendly, cordial, punctual and reliable. I’d super recommend booking with him directly. He took us to the places we wanted to visit and provided great information regarding our surroundings during the trip. On top of that he gave us a great little book with a summary of Greece’s history. We’d absolutely use him again. The good ratings proved true.

Private Tour: Capr Sounio and Temple of Poseidon - The accommodations on this private tour were curtailed to my needs and interests, including an afternoon start time and an impromptu visit to lake Vougliameni to swim for a bit! Also, the driver provided water and snacks, stopped for coffee, gifted me postcards. I felt safe and in good hands on this tour. To say I felt special is an understatement!
