Must see - Poseidons Temple at Sunset - Yiannis was our driver, he was very knowledgeable and shared alot of history with us along our ride. The drive was beautiful slong the Athenian Riveria. We got to Poseidon's Temple just before sunset, it was breathtaking and everyone clapped when the sun went down. Great experience! Thank you Yiannis for a great evening.

Poseidon's Temple - This was a great tour for us. Our driver (Stavros, I believe) was wonderful. Patient, informative, friendly and engaging. We learned a lot, saw really cool things and got to fully enjoy our first Greece experience. Highly recommend.

Cape Sounio sunset - The tour was great , we’re very glad we chose it. Kostantinos was extremely knowledgeable and during the taxi ride, telling history and interesting myths in a very joyful way. We visited the Ancient Theater of Thorikos, a place definetely well worthy the stop. Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon, just amazing. Having the time to fully enjoy the monument before you take time to sit and enjoy the sunset. The ride back to the city center was very smooth, thanks to Konstantinos. We highly recommend this!!!!!!
