  • Lake Vouliagmeni
    At the beautiful Lake Vouliagmeni, travelers will discover a hidden natural wonder just outside Athens. This unique lake is fed by both the sea and underground thermal springs, creating crystal clear waters that remain warm year round. Surrounded by dramatic limestone cliffs and lush greenery, it’s a peaceful spot away from the city. During the stop, guests can enjoy the stunning scenery, take photos of the emerald waters, or simply relax in the calm atmosphere while the guide will explain everything to them. It’s the perfect introduction to the coastal beauty of the Athenian Riviera before continuing the journey to Cape Sounion.
  • Sounio Beach
    At Cape Sounion Beach, travelers can relax by the waters of the Aegean Sea, right beneath the cliffs that host the Temple of Poseidon. This peaceful beach offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy a coffee, taste fresh local food and the catch of the day at a seaside taverna, or even take a refreshing swim with the temple in view. The setting combines natural beauty with a sense of history, making it a truly memorable stop along the Athenian Riviera.
  • Temple of Poseidon
    At the majestic Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounion, travelers will step back into Ancient Greece while enjoying one of the most stunning coastal views in the country.

With your guide, you’ll learn the history of the temple and the nearby areas, along with the myths of King Aegeus and the hero Theseus. In addition, for those who participate in the sunset tour, visitors witness the sun as it dips below the horizon and the moon rising beside the Temple of Poseidon.
