-We were picked up and... - -We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. -It's a small group tour, maximum of 6. -Stopped at Lake Vougliameni, had a very nice breakfast at a local bakery, headed to cape sounio and then had lunch at a taverna. What made this trip exceptional is having Kosta as our guide. He is such a wonderful person that made everyone in the tour feel comfortable with each other. He is very knowledgeable and highlights the facts about Greece as we go around.

Thoroughly enjoyable - Really great, Eric is knowledgeable and very gifted at bringing strangers together into a cohesive group. The first stop -espresso or cappuccino with Bougatsa (was warm and wonderful). Then the motel/beach for a very refreshing dip in the sea. Next stop Posiedon temple...beautiful sunset. Lots and lots of people....good walking shoes essential. Magical. After that an option/opportunity to stop for dinner or not. Obviously we all chose to stay together a bit longer and on Eric's recommendations ate some type of pork dish, with several starters, sides, and dessert options at Pezodromos. Every choice...delicious.

Best Poseidon trip - Fantastic small group trip - we had 6 guests in total. Our guide Eric was knowledgeable and interesting. The coffee and delicious snack was a great start to the trip, an opportunity to start talking with each other. The swim really was a hidden gem! There are toilets where you can get changed. There is plenty if shade. Poseidon at sunset is spectacular. Lots of other tourists, but still felt peaceful and special. We stopped off for a meal on the way home - yummy and a reasonable price. Thank you Eric for making this trip so enjoyable 😊

Thank you Fotis! - Fotis is a fantastic guide - full of stories and enthusiasm. My group and I had a fantastic afternoon on this tour.

The walk of happy people - We highly recommend this excursion. Fotis is an enthusiastic and passionate guide to his region. He will count you with many legends and appendices along the way, and above all, he will share with you an authentic Greek point of view. The route with him offers stops in places that are frequented only by locals...

Book this tour! - This was such an amazing tour! Kostas picked us up from our hotel and took us all over the Riviera! It was so cool to get to hear all about the area and Greece from a local. We also loved the snacks and the beach stop. The Temple of Poseidon was breathtaking and the dinner at the end was delicious! Kostas was so amazing and we all felt like friends by the end of the day! 100000% recommend!

Amazing Experience! - This tour was such a lovely way to explore the Athenian suburbs. We chose the afternoon session and the swim stop along the Athenian Riviera was magical as the sun began to set over the water. Kostas was a fantastic tour guide who was able to enrich our experience with first hand stories about the areas we visited. The main event was the Temple visit and WOW, what a sight to behold! It won’t disappoint. We finished our tour with a dinner at a local taverna, which was great. 10 out of 10, would recommend!
