Review of Athens to Cape Sounion, including Poseidon’s Temple, sunset views, transport, €20 entry fee, guides, and practical tips.

“The tour guide was a brilliant story teller and knew everything about the temple and wider Greek mythology. We also got free term at the temple to enjoy the sunset and explore either independently or with an audio guide which is very informative. The sunset was magical and was the highlight of my time in Greece. Couldn’t recommend this experience more!!”

She was knowledgeable in not just the Greek cuisines but in the culture behind it. I loved listening to her talk about food with such passion. It made me care about it that much more. I highly recommend booking this tour!”

Review of Athens Acropolis timed-entry ticket with audio guide, optional museum and site passes, practical tips, costs, crowds, and value.

“Super simple way to see the Acropolis and other sites. We arrived early for our 8 am time slot and it was already busy, with the already purchased tickets we were able to bypass most people and go right in. Really glad we chose an early time as it is HOT. It was fairly simple to navigate all of the sites, however I do think we missed some somehow, I would suggest getting a map to be sure you get them all. Overall it was wonderful and an excellent way to start our trip”
