Cape Sounio Half Day Tour

Immerse yourself in the grandeur of ancient Greece with our captivating half-day expedition to the awe-inspiring Temple of Poseidon. Nestled on the precipice of Cape Sunio, this majestic monument dates back to the 5th century B.C. and towers nearly 60 meters high, sculpted entirely from radiant white Agrilesa marble.

Your journey begins with a convenient pick-up from your Athens-based accommodations approximately 40 minutes before 11 am. Relax in the comfort of a private vehicle as we embark on a scenic coastal drive along the stunning Athenian Riviera. Feast your eyes on the glistening waters and pristine beaches of Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, and Varkiza.

As we bend towards Cape Sunio, prepare for the breathtaking sight of the Temple of Poseidon, its white marble pillars standing proudly against the backdrop of the azure Saronic Gulf. Spend 1.5 hours basking in the historical splendor of the temple, letting the panoramic vistas seep into your memory.

The adventure continues with a stroll around the rugged charm of Sunio's promontory, where the temple's surroundings offer more opportunities for exploration.

The icing on the cake is a 2-hour reprieve at the charming Anavyssos. Indulge in authentic Greek mezes, refresh yourself with a rejuvenating swim, and unwind on the sun-kissed beach. This delightful interlude promises a perfect blend of gastronomy and relaxation, neatly wrapped up in our Greek heritage tour.

Come, step back in time, and absorb the intoxicating blend of history, culture, and natural beauty that is Greece. Your unforgettable journey awaits.
