ATHENS | Athens & Sounion Tour
On a private excursion with your family, your friends, or even the company that you will create especially for this purpose, you will see the most important sights of the Greek capital. On your way you will visit the Acropolis to admire the wonders of the classical era and the Parthenon, but it is recommended that you also visit the Odeon of Herodes Atticus and the new Acropolis Museum. Afterwards, you will see the Panathenaic Stadium where the 1st modern Olympic Games took place and will continue to Syntagma Square and a tour throughout the classical buildings-jewels of the city. Next stop is the Archaeological Museum, and the continuation will be in the historic center of Athens which is full of life, with many options for food and drink.
After the tour in Athens, you will admire the Athens Riviera, with its beautiful beaches and the view of the Saronic Gulf. About 70 kilometers from Athens is Cape Sounion, with the famous temple built in honor of Poseidon, the God of the Sea, in 444 B.C. The amazing view, combined with the sunrise or sunset, will captivate you. On the adjacent hill you will also see the remains of the even older Temple of Athena.
Throughout the tour, the driver will provide you with useful information both about the history of each region but also for its modern reality.
Extra tip: You can stop for a swim at one of the wonderful beaches or even have lunch/dinner in a tavern by the sea. (In this case you should have your bathing suit and towels with you.)
