Amazing tour! - We had a wonderful time on our half day tour. Fantastic service and communication. Pick up and drop off at our hotel. Our driver, Nathan was the best! Nathan was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our conversations with him. We learned a lot from him. He was such a polite, kind man. The views along the way to the temple are beautiful and Nathan offered to stop if we wanted pictures. The view from the temple is beautiful. Highly Recommend!

Incredible, stunning views! - The communication was great! The tour operator reached out to me to confirm everything ahead of time and designate an easy to find meeting point (since our place was in a pedestrian area we just met at the corner, very easy). Jason picked us up and had waters ready for us. He was so polite, knowledgeable and stopped for us along the way to take pictures. When we arrived he gave us clear instructions and was easy to spot when we were done. We were able to get some incredible photos! I highly recommend putting this on your list if you have time! It’s stunning!!! They stop letting people in at 8:15 FYI, we had plenty of time but good to know if you decide to grab a bite/drink at the restaurant there. Jason recommended several places to stop and eat and he was so patient with us! We also got a sweet traditional treat! Highly recommend this tour, Jason and the company! Stay until the whistle blow to get the sunset afterglow and there will be less people in your shot.

Temple of Posiden - What a great tour we had with Nathan on the trip to Poseidon’s temple. Nathan was knowledgeable and a blast to be with. He picked us up at our hotel exactly on time. The drive to the Temple from our Athens hotel was a little over an hour. Stopped and ate dinner at a fantastic restaurant on the way. Got to the Temple a little before an absolutely beautiful Greek sunset. Watching the sun set behind the temple was incredible. On the return trip, stopped for best gelato I have ever had. Really recommend using this company if you want a premium experience as I can’t express enough how pleased we were with them.

Best trip ever. Do not miss this experience, you'll regret it. - We where collected from our hotel by Theo our driver and guide. From the outset we was friendly and knowledgeable. He's clearly very proud of his home and was keen to show his new friends round. He made sure we enjoyed a great meal and got some great photos. The Temple of Posiedon was as fantastic as we had hoped. Our eldest child is neurodivergent and anxious and Theo was understanding, compassionate, and kind. We cannot speak highly enough of our experience, don't miss out and ask for Theo. Would absolutely recommend not too be missed thank you theo for an amazing experience

Wonderful coast sunset trip - Beautiful drive along coast from Athens to the Sounio peninsula. Our guide George was wonderful. Had lots of information and fun facts. Took us to a wonderful sea side restaurant where he knew the owner. Then got to watch the sunset at the Temple of Poseidon. Nice drive back with a stop for ice cream. Note the temple cost is now 20 euros per person, and they insist you pay in cash to speed up the line. Well worth doing.

Trip to see Cape Sounio and temple of poseídon - We went with Giorgis. He picked us up right on time at our hotel in Athens and texted me when he was outside. He has a very nice sedan and was a great guide as we drove down the coast. We had dinner at 4 brothers. It was solid. Not fancy just good food. I would sit away from the edge as it can get warm with the afternoon sun After dinner we completed our drive to the cape and Giorgis gave us great advice on how and when to enter the temple. It costs 20E pp and shorter line for cash We took a lot of pictures and Giorgis was waiting for us when we exited. Nice drive home. All in all a great experience Thanks Giorgis!

Excellent!!! - This was the best way to tour the coast! Our driver Dimitris was so nice, giving us information about each town we passed through. We chose the dinner option, and the restaurant The Four Brothers was so delicious. Definitely a must do!

Amazing!! We love Nathan - Nathan was incredible!! He educated us so much about the local culture and history on our drive. He was on time, the car was so nice and clean. He was a great driver too. We stopped at Nathan’s favorite restaurant for dinner before seeing the temple of Poseidon. This was the best meal we had on our entire trip! We cannot rave enough about Nathan and his service; he was so so helpful and so kind and welcoming. The temple itself was a gorgeous view at sunset — Nathan got us there with plenty of time so we were able to explore and get lots of pics before settling in to watch the beautiful sunset. Thank you Nathan! <3
