Private Tour: Cape Sounion Half-Day Trip from Athens
Overview
Visit the breathtaking Cape Sounion and the exquisite Temple of Poseidon on this private morning (or afternoon) guided tour from Athens! Travel by private, air-conditioned vehicle along the beautiful Attica Riviera.
Cape Sounio is the most southern point of Attica and looks on to the Aegean Sea. At the tip of the cape the ancient Greeks built a temple to honor the god of the Sea, Poseidon. The site was not only as a place of worship but also as a strategic vantage point that allowed for shipping lanes to and from Athens to be controlled.
The site is quite modest, the Doric columns that stand today are a reminder of what the site used to be; it is very easily understood how impressive this site must have been. Just standing at the foot of the temple and looking out to the Aegean sea is awe inspiring and really well worth the visit.
Your personal guide will explain and give you insights about the sight, the history and the legends surrounding it.
