Step by Step

Discover Athens on a sightseeing bus and take a trip to Cape Sounion. The sightseeing bus ticket is valid for two days and allows you to hop on and off at any of the stops along the four-line route. You’ll be able to explore the Acropolis, the Plaka and Monastiraki neighbourhoods, and whatever else interests you at your own pace. The trip to Cape Sounion, lasting around 4 hours, will take you by bus with an audio guide to the Temple of Poseidon, where you can admire the sunset 70 metres above the Aegean Sea.

The date you choose when booking will be for the trip to Cape Sounion. A bus with an audio guide departing from Athens will take you to this historic area. There, you’ll be able to visit the Temple of Poseidon in time to watch the sunset. Meanwhile, the two-day tourist bus pass includes access to four bus routes. This will allow you to see as much as you like at your own pace, as the pass has no expiry date.

Cape Sounion, situated about 70 kilometres from Athens, is famous for being home to the ancient Temple of Poseidon, dedicated to the god of the sea. You’ll enjoy a relaxing bus journey whilst admiring the coastal scenery of the Athenian Riviera. Upon arrival at Cape Sounion, you’ll have time to explore the temple and marvel at the views of the Aegean Sea. With the sun setting on the horizon, this place becomes a beautiful setting that you won’t want to miss.
