Full description

While in Athens you must visit the ancient temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion. If you want to do it on your own and without time limitations, then getting a safe transfer there is recommended. Booking this transfer service, you will enjoy a hassle-free 1-way or 2-way transfer from central meeting points in Athens. Your driver will pick you up from your accommodation in the Athens city center at the designated time, and will drive you to Cape Sounion using the fastest route, depending on the traffic. After 40-60 minutes, you will arrive at Cape Sounion. Once there, you may spend your time however you like, with the option to explore the archaeological site of the Temple of Poseidon, or walk down to the closest beautiful beach to take a refreshing swim. If you book the 1-way option, be sure to arrange for the return trip on your own. Alternatively, you can book the 2-way option which grants you 90 minutes of free time on the site before the driver takes you back to the city center.

The tour was great, we were lucky to have Tom as our driver. Besides driving very carefully, he's also very nice and polite. He speaks English very well and we had a great time during the trip. The van was new and clean, we were picked up punctually and arrived at Cape Sounio as expected.

Great Trip to Sounion with Teens

My three teens and I used the service to go to Sounion on our first day in Greece. I was happy to see a nice big Mercedes van. The driver, Panos, was on-time, polite and a great driver! We enjoyed our time at the temple of Poseidon without huge bus crowds just as I had hoped. Panos provided us with cold water and played good music, but not too loud. I wish we could have taken more trips with him!
