Embark on a scenic journey alongside a friendly local guide, tracing the breathtaking Athens seaside Riviera all the way to the iconic Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounio. Cruise along the coastal route from the busy city centre, on a leisurely drive offering opportunities to pause for photos and soak in the panoramic vistas of the azure Saronic Gulf and the beautiful offshore islands. Keep your camera handy as we capture the mesmerising view of the thermal lake Vouliagmeni lagoon.
