Private Tour Option 3
Cape Sounion
Private Tour from Piraeus to
Cape Sounion
This four
hour itinerary starts with a one hour
drive along the Saronic Gulf coast.
You'll pass many popular beaches and
small islands on your way to the
southern tip of Attica and Cape Sounion.
This is a wonderful choice for anyone
who does not enjoy big cities or too
much walking.
Once
you
have
arrived
at
the
isolated
Temple
of
Poseidon
standing
watch
over
the
sea,
your
guide
will
unravel
its
fascinating
history.
On
this
ground
the
ancient
Greeks
worshiped
their
god
of
the
sea,
Poseidon.
The
temple
was
originally
made
up
of
34
Doric
style
columns
and
today
there
are
still
15
which
are
well
preserved.
You
can
walk
along
the
ruins
at
the
cliff's
edge
high
above
the
sea
and
take
in
dramatic
views
of
the
surrounding
heights
and
sparkling
blue

There is
time for relaxing in the cafe or
exploring the site's gift shop before
returning to your ship in Piraeus.
