Sunset tour - Great private tour. The temple was beautiful along with the sunset. Our driver made a great recommendation for a restaurant right on the water as we were driving home. It was the perfect way to end our trip.

George the greatest tour guide ever - Our tour guide, George, was awesome. And you could tell he was so very proud of his country and shared his story with us plus a ton of Greek history. We never felt rushed on the tour.

Best sunset!!!! - What an amazing time!!! Me and my family absolutely loved this experience!! Billy was incredible! He picked us up, gave us lots of information along the way. He stopped afterwards so we can eat at a local taverna, and the food was delicious!! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of Athens for a little bit and enjoy more of the outskirts with a beautiful sunset!

Great tour of Greece coastline - What a beautiful trip! Our guide was great…showing us the coastline of Greece and sharing his knowledge of the area. So convenient to be picked up and dropped off right at this crowded magnificent temple. Could customize to stop for a great dinner on the coast if desired. What a great way to see Greece!

Unforgettable experience. Would return to this area in Greece in a heart beat. - The ride to the Temple of Poseidon along the coast line of the Athens Rivera was totally captivating in its scenic beauty. Our driver, Giannis, was the best. Totally profesional, so friendly and willing to share his knowlege of the surroundings. Giannis made us quite comfortable and his recommendation for a seafood dinner on the water truly topped off our most delightful time.

Amazing experience - The tour was amazing. Seeing the temple of Posideion was absolutely amazing and our guide Giannis was very helpful at explaining everything and also helping us take our photos as well. I would definitely recommend the tour and he took us to an amazing family owned seafood place which was so good as well.

Breathtaking views - This was a great way to see Athens on our first day here. Peter was very conversational and gave us great history and insight of the area. Despite the traffic, we arrive to the Cape right on time and was able to get beautiful shots.
