Sunset Sounio Private Sightseeing Tour from Athens

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Xenon Tours on our trip to Sounio and the Temple of Poseidon, and so much of that was because of our driver, Elias. Elias was exceptional from start to finish — warm, knowledgeable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making sure we had the best experience possible. His knowledge of the history and architecture of Athens was impressive, and our conversations with him really enriched our understanding and experience of the city. At Sounio, he gave us great advice on the best path to take around the Temple of Poseidon and where to find the best views. Along the way, he also showed us a much better viewpoint over the lake than the usual stop, which was beautiful. He took us to a fantastic place for dinner, but what really made Elias stand out was how much he added to the rest of our trip. He gave us recommendations for places to visit around Athens, along with practical tips and suggestions we never would have known otherwise. We followed several of them over the following days, and they ended up being some of the highlights of our entire stay in Athens. The trip to Sounio would have been memorable on its own, but Elias made it feel much more personal and special. It never felt like we were simply being driven from one tourist attraction to another. It felt like we were seeing Athens and Attica with someone who genuinely loved the city and wanted us to experience the best of it. We are incredibly grateful to Elias for his kindness, knowledge, recommendations, and hospitality. He had an impact on our trip that went well beyond the hours we spent with him. I would wholeheartedly recommend Xenon Tours, and if you have the opportunity to have Elias as your driver, you are in for a wonderful experience.

Amazing visit to the Temple of Poseidon. Beautiful trip up the coast. With a surprise stop with a breath taking view of the sea. The sunset was spectacular and then dinner at an authentic Greek Restaurant. The fresh caught fish of the day was delicious. Elias went over and above to make our final night in Greece unforgettable.

We had such a wonderful experience with Nasos on this trip to Sounio. He picked us up promptly at our place in Athens in the evening and we got to embark on a sunset tour of the Temple of Poseidon. We had a large group with four kids ages 4-13 and this was the perfect trip for us. We got to see the coast and stopped at a couple beautiful lookout points and then the main event, the Temple. Nasos was so knowledgable and fun. We all loved spending the evening with him. We ended the night by grabbing a fantastic dinner on the way home at the perfect restaurant. A real local spot with amazing food and fish. Highly recommend this tour!

The Sunset Sounio Private Tour was absolutely breathtaking, and having Nassos as my driver made the experience even more special. He was professional, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing insights along the way that enriched the entire journey. The drive along the coastline was stunning, with gorgeous views of the sea that only got better as the sun began to set. Nassos made sure I had the best spots to take in the scenery, and the view of the Temple of Poseidon at sunset was unforgettable. His kindness and genuine care for my experience turned the evening into the perfect blend of relaxation and discovery. Nassos truly made this tour a highlight of my trip, and I can’t recommend him enough for anyone visiting Athens.

What a wonderful sunset and historical site in Greece! We had originally not planned to venture out of Athens for this but after a suggestion by our guide Nasos - we decided to book! It was an enjoyable change to see the south side of Athens, the coast outside of the city, and a beautiful view at the Temple of Poseidon. We booked this experience specifically with Nasos because he is so informative, kind, and courteous. Would highly recommend!

This was the Best tour for a quick day trip to see the other side of Athens near many beaches. Visiting the Temple of Poseidon was breathtaking!! Our tour guide Aristotle is so knowledgeable about his country and the many true stories never told, that we got the pleasure of hearing. The views were amazing!!! The company of Aristotle and our driver Aris we will never forget!! The restaurant he took us to was a hidden gem. The food was simply delicious and so fresh, true Greek cuisine!!! Please give yourself the opportunity to meet these fine gentlemen and take their tour!! You will NOT have a better guide or atmosphere to either start your trip or end your trip!!!! The private tour is the way to go!! You can ask as many questions as you want and they will create the most personalized tour for your group!! Our memories will be withbus forever! Thank you again to Aristotle and Aris!!!!! The dynamic duo that always went above and beyond for each of us and made us feel so welcome!!! We love your beautiful country and hope to return again one day!!!

The second tour with Aristotle was just as amazing as the first. I cannot express how much he did for our family and how knowledgeable he is on the area. Aristotle and his team are simply one of a kind. We were treated as family and the connections we were so meaningful. A trip I personally will never forget.

A wonderful trip made memorable by Nasos (our local chauffeur+guide) and Fotis..Nasos often went out of his way to show us ‘hidden gems’ or ’surprises’ that you cannot simply experience in a large tour or other organized tours. The sunset with Temple background is simply beautiful. While the crowd (and school kids) is unavoidable, May was the perfect time with good weather. Overall, if you want to really experience Greece in your own special way (and s[pend less that going through a tour reseller, this is THE way to do it..Go with Xenon!

Beautiful drive and great food recommendations with our guide Elias! Definitely a must see visit during your time in Athens!

We had such an amazing time on this tour with our guide, Alexander! From the moment we started, we felt like we were in good hands. Alexander was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also so friendly and passionate about sharing the history and culture of the place. We loved how he made each stop feel special and personal, taking the time to answer questions and even offering some great local tips. The personal experience of the private tour made everything feel more relaxed, and we could truly enjoy every moment. We came away with not just memories, but a deeper understanding of the area. Highly recommend this tour with Alexander to anyone who wants to experience the destination in a unique and meaningful way!
