About this activity

Accompanied by your considerate & knowledgeable English speaking tour driver, depart from your hotel or cruise ship & begin your journey. Exclusive to your group alone, leave the city behind for an hour of beautiful coastal scenery past some of Athens most prestigious districts. Finally we leave the last settlements behind as our road skirts the beautiful cliff line high above the sea until we see on the farthest point of the Attica peninsula the sight of one of the ancient world’s most important and impressive sites, the Temple of Poseidon.

Perched on the shear cliff edge with vast open views, the temple forms a historical, cultural and awe-inspiring experience. Take the time you need inside the site to enjoy the magnificent sea views extending to the islands of Kea and the Peloponnese on a clear day and a stop at a nearby picture postcard beach for lunch (in season) making this a wonderful half day trip from Athens for all.

Our group of 6 spent a delightful day with Valerius, enjoying the drive along the coast and visiting the fantastic ruins of the Temple of Poseidon. We went in the morning, so that we had the temple nearly to ourselves without all the tour buses. Valerius was very informative and delightful company, and on our way back suggested a great restaurant in the Pireus area by the water that turned out to be our gest meal in Greece. I highly recommend this tour.

This is worth seeing - Poseidon is my favorite so I couldn't miss this - Its a beautiful ruin and well kept - Scenery is very pretty - We did go to the cafe at the bottom of the bay and the food was delicous and well priced - Owners were nice and welcoming. Our guide was nice but did not see to have much to say about the ruins - Just thought we would hear more about the history there.
