The ride to Cape Sounion is comfortable in a spacious, air-conditioned bus and takes a couple of hours. Along the way, we also passed the Theatre of Thorikos, the oldest theater in history, which was a nice addition. The Temple of Poseidon and the sunset were truly beautiful. While the sunset view may not be completely perfect as part of it is slightly obstructed by the hill, it was still a wonderful experience overall. Highly recommended!”
