Stop At: Temple of Poseidon - Sounio, Cape Sounio, Sounio 195 00, Greece

You begin your tour with a wonderful drive along the scenic coastal road which affords a splendid view of the Saronic Gulf, passing through some of the most beautiful suburbs (Glyfada, Vouliagmeni, Varkiza) of Athens. Once there you will visit the 5th century B.C. TEMPLE of POSEIDON with one of the most breath-taking panoramic views in the world (on a clear day you can see at least seven islands). The precipice is a sheer 197-foot drop to the sea. Sounion is a wonderful choice for a half day trip from Athens, and is a world-famous spot at sunset.
