Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
På din vej mod Poseidon-templet vil du have potentialet til at absorbere Athens sydlige forstæder, såsom Old Faliron, Alimos og Glyfada. Det er en ubestridelig kendsgerning, at disse områder anses for at være de mest opskalerede i Attika. Desuden får den rejsende mulighed for at observere Attikas kystlinje fuld af private og offentlige marinesoldater, butikker og caféer.
Et kort stop for billeder vil blive gjort ved Vouliagmeni-søen. Lagunen blev dannet for omkring 2.000 år siden. Det var engang en stor hule, der kollapsede efter et jordskælv. Omridset af det kollapsede huletag kan tydeligt skelnes på afstand. Søen har helt unikke miljøforhold: den forsynes med varmt havvand (28-35ºC) via en underjordisk kanal, der spreder sig gennem et netværk af oversvømmede huler, så dens temperatur falder aldrig under 18 °C (sædvanligvis spænder omkring 21-24 °C) , hvorimod en ferskvandskilde reducerer sin saltholdighed til brakniveauer (14,5-18 psu). På grund af dets konstante varmevandstemperatur og dets rige indhold af svovlbrinte har søen fungeret som et kurbad siden slutningen af det 19. århundrede.
Varkiza er en malerisk landsby ved havet midt på vejen til Cape Sounion. Området er meget populært for athenerne til korte udflugter på grund af dets strande, butikker og klubber.
Poseidon-templet er bygget på toppen af bakken, præcis på mødestedet mellem Det Saroniske Hav og Det Ægæiske Hav. Templet var dedikeret til Gud Poseidon, havets herre, og det var der, hvor alle sømændene ofrede et sidste offer for at formilde Gud Poseidon, før de forlod sikkerheden på Saronic Golf. Ifølge græsk mytologi var Kap Sounion det punkt, hvorfra den græske kong Aegeus kastede sig ud af klippen til sin død, efter den fejlagtige tro på, at hans søn var død. Denne gamle tragiske fortælling involverer et tema, der stadig bruges i moderne historiefortælling i dag.
På vej tilbage til Athen vil den besøgende nyde det græske traditionelle køkken på en lokal taverna med udsigt til havet.

Timing the crowd is key. Jimmy adjusted our trip to put us there ahead of the “sunset” bus tours, and it made an enormous difference. We had no line going in and passed a huge line going out.

Basically just a car service to Cape Sounion. I booked for 4pm which I guess was too early? So we had to stop for dinner at 5 on the way not on the way back, as advertised. The sunset at the Temple of Poseidon was at 8:24 pm. So we didn’t need to get there until 7:30. Not sure why we weren’t told that. The dinner spot was fine. Great people and the food was good, but not a place I would have chosen on my own. There were other seemingly more interesting places in the area. Our driver was nice, but quiet. We didn’t expect a tour guide, but some of the other reviews mention drivers who were talkative and informative. Overall definitely worth going to Cape Sounion and the temple of Poseidon. That said, this was just hiring a driver to get there. Not sure we needed to spend 500 to do that and then an addition 300+ for dinner at 5pm.
Hello Matt, We would once again like to thank you for choosing H.P. Tours – Hellenic Private Tours for your private tour, and for taking the time to share your feedback with us and with fellow travelers. Regarding your comments, we acknowledge that the tour starting time of 16:00 was not ideal for catching the sunset on that particular date. In hindsight, a later departure time should have been recommended by our team to ensure a better overall experience. We regret this oversight. Given the original timing, having dinner before reaching the Temple became necessary to stay as true as possible to the itinerary and to ensure you could still experience the sunset there. While we understand your criticism, we would like to note that the decision regarding the starting time was made by you. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the restaurant’s service and the food provided. Delivering authentic cuisine and warm, genuine hospitality is always our goal when suggesting dining options. That said, we’d like to emphasize that our restaurant recommendations are always optional. If you had preferred another dining option, this could have been discussed directly with your driver. Regarding your experience with the driver, we will follow up on this internally to better understand his perspective and assess the situation more thoroughly. While we appreciate that you described him as “nice,” we also want to understand more deeply why you felt the overall experience lacked the depth you expected. We take all guest feedback seriously, and we can guarantee your review will help us improve further. Our goal is to consistently deliver the high-quality service that has defined H.P. Tours over the years, and we thank you for contributing to that effort. Warm regards, Frank Kotsiopoulos Managing Director H.P. Tours

Exceptional experience. We could not have asked for more from the tour - our guide and driver Panos was simple excellent. Very professional, kind, knowledgeable, great with kids and with an excellent knowledge of music. He was also flexible to accommodate our requests and went out of his way to show us his lovely country.

The beautiful ride along the Athens coastline coupled with the sunset at Poseidon's temple was absolutely breathtaking. The tour was greatly enhanced by Jimmy our driver/guide who was a wealth of knowledge and a pleasure to be with. This tour is highly recommended.

A relaxing and beautiful drive along to coast to a few surprise stops and then the Temple of Poseidon. We never got to dinner because I was feeling unwell, but our wonderful driver Tragadis Theofilos, Theo, stopped for the most amazing ice cream on the way back. Theo was a pleasant host and driver, taught us about the history of area and described the beautify of the country beyond Athens...it made us want to come back and explore more of Greece. A wonderful trip. Thank you Theo!
