Starting from Athens or Piraeus we will pass through the wonderful suburbs of Palaio Faliro, Glyfada, Voula, Vouliagmeni, Varkiza, to the resorts of Saronida and Anavyssos to end up in the amazing Sounio Visit to the Temple of Poseidon and guided tour by our experienced tour guide. Free time for photos as well to enjoy the wonderful view & the amazing sunset Without special recommendations, the temple of Poseidon in Sounio emits the most special energy you will ever encounter in an archaeological site! The Temple of Poseidon in Sounio has always had a special place in the hearts of visitors to Athens. Built at the same time as the Parthenon, during the Golden Age of Pericles, it was not just a place of worship for the god of the sea (inside the temple, right in the center, there was an imposing statue of Poseidon with a height of more than 6 meters). Its prominent position above the sea at the southeastern tip of Attica made the temple a sign to sailors that they were near Piraeus.

Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.
How much does Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio cost?
+
Prices start at $647 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.
Is Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Athens?
+
On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Athens?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Athens?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio?
+
Included: Bottled cool water; Licensed official tour guide; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Tolls and all taxes. Not included: Meals; Entrance fees; and Tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio offered in?
+
It is offered in German, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Half Day Athenian Riviera and Sounio?
+
