Es la forma más cómoda de ir a Cabo Sunio. Puntualidad, buen rollo. Vasilis (el guía) es maravilloso. Atento, educado y siempre con una sonrisa. Quizás el domingo no sea el mejor día para ir, había muchísima gente. Cosas que pueden mejorarse: -La audioguia está bien, pero tiene algún error en español. -Aseguraos de confirmar el precio de la entrada al templo, en los detalles pone que son 10€ y en taquilla costó 20€ Por lo demás, es una excursión de las que hay que hacer. Muy Recomendable Translate this opinion into English.

It's the most convenient way to get to Cape Sounion. Punctuality, good vibes. Vasilis (the guide) is wonderful. Attentive, polite, and always smiling. Perhaps Sunday wasn't the best day to go; it was very crowded. Things that could be improved: -The audio guide is good, but it has some errors in Spanish. -Make sure you confirm the entrance fee to the temple. The details say it's €10, but at the ticket office it cost €20. Otherwise, it's a must-do excursion. Highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

Il tour è stato carino. Avevo paura di passare la maggior parte del tempo in bus vista la distanza da Atene e la partenza alle 17:00.. ed invece abbiamo avuto abbastanza tempo per ammirare il panorama e il tempio con un bel tramonto. La mia audioguida non funzionava correttamente e la guida parlava inglese. Consiglierei la prossima volta una guida in italiano, magari che accompagni anche sul monte per qualche nozione storica in più. Ad ogni modo, il tour è consigliatissimo!!

Il posto è molto bello e la vista del tramonto magnifica. La guida è stata simpaticissima e gentilissima. Però hanno testato una nuova audioguida multilingue nel tragitto in autobus che si attiva automaticamente durante il percorso e non funziona bene: non si capisce a cosa si stia riferendo, se si hanno problemi non si può riascoltare la traccia e se si passa ad una zona successiva troppo velocemente interrompe bruscamente la descrizione precedente. Translate this opinion into English.

The place is very beautiful and the view of the sunset is magnificent. The guide was very nice and kind. However, they tested a new multilingual audio guide on the bus ride that activates automatically during the journey and does not work well: you do not understand what it is referring to, if you have problems you cannot listen to the track again and if you move to a subsequent area too quickly it abruptly interrupts the previous description.

Esperaba más de este tour, lo compré porque en la referencia decía que era un tour en español, pero el guía solo habló en inglés y aunque llevábamos audio guía con la posibilidad de escuchar las explicaciones en diferentes idiomas, muchas. de las cosas importantes "nos las perdimos". Por otro lado, nos pareció que se dio mucho tiempo en la visita al Cabo Sinión y la espera para visualizar la puesta del sol fue muy grande.

I expected more from this tour. I bought it because the reference said it was in Spanish, but the guide only spoke English, and although we had an audio guide with the option of listening to explanations in different languages, we missed many of the important things. On the other hand, we felt like there was too much time spent on the visit to Cape Sinion, and the wait to see the sunset was very long.

El lugar y la vista es maravillosa, vale mucho la pena, lo único es que en todo el camino los audífonos no sirvieron, por lo que no pude escuchar ningún tipo de información relevante durante el trayecto :( las vistas si que valen muchsisisimo la pena! Maravillosas! Translate this opinion into English.

The place and the view are wonderful, very worthwhile, the only thing is that the headphones didn't work the whole way, so I couldn't hear any relevant information during the trip :( the views are definitely worth it! Wonderful! Opinion translated. Show original.

No era lo que esperaba. La única manera de ver la puesta de sol es desde el Templo de Poseidón, y para entrar hay que pagar 20 euros (y no 10 como en la descripción). A fines de mayo, el sol no se oculta en el mar, sino en las montañas, alejado del Templo.

It wasn't what I expected. The only way to see the sunset is from the Temple of Poseidon, and you have to pay 20 euros to enter (not 10 as described). At the end of May, the sun doesn't set over the sea, but rather in the mountains, far from the Temple.

Muy buena onda el guía, muy simpático. Lamento que solo hablara ingles, ya que Yo lo entiendo poco. El audio guía dio una información gral. de lo que íbamos viendo. El tiempo en el Templo de Poseidon fue mas que suficiente. El día fue “ mas o menos”. Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was very friendly and very nice. I'm sorry he only spoke English, as I don't understand much of it. The audio guide gave a general overview of what we were seeing. We had more than enough time at the Temple of Poseidon. The day was so-so. Opinion translated. Show original.

L’activité vaut la peine, le site en lui même est tout petit, 20 euros le ticket d’entrée est à mon sens beaucoup trop cher pour admirer un coucher de soleil, bien qu’il faut le dire le cadre est magnifique. Je conseillerais d’actualiser vos infos : - plus de précisions sur le lieu de rdv sur le voucher directement plutôt qu’un e-mail quelques heures avant (que je n’avais pas vu) - le billet d’entrée est à 20 euros et non pas 10 euros comme indiqué.

La visita en si, el solo hecho de asistir al ocaso ante una joya tan sublime, extraordinario. Lo que sobraba por obsoleta, mal narrada y nula en información era la grabación en español del whistler (repetitiva, con ruidos, entrecortados; palabrería absolutamente irrelevante). Mejor no distribuyan nada si lo que en otras lenguas se oye es igual. Hubiéramos agradecido un poco de explicación (en español) por parte del acompañante (que no guía) sobre el entorno por el que pasábamos.

The visit itself, just witnessing the sunset before such a sublime gem, was extraordinary. What was superfluous, outdated, poorly narrated, and lacking in information, was the Spanish recording of the whistler (repetitive, noisy, choppy, and completely irrelevant). It's better not to distribute anything if what you hear in other languages is the same. We would have appreciated a little explanation (in Spanish) from the companion (not the guide) about the surroundings we were passing through.

No estuvo mal, la organización pudo ser algo mejor, el autobús algo más cómodo, pero al final, es lo que buscabamos: un autobús que nos llevara ida y vuelta a ver el Templo de Poseidón del cabo Sunión. Eso sí, la audioguía es malísima, estuve escuchando 10 minutos y lo tuve que dejar, es la primera vez que "escucho" faltas de ortografía, la narradora no tenía ganas de leer, ni pronunciaba bien, ni lo que hablaba tenía interés alguno. La entrada del templo es ahora 20€, a pagar aparte.

It wasn't bad; the organization could have been a little better, the bus a little more comfortable, but in the end, it was what we were looking for: a bus that would take us to and from the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion. However, the audio guide was terrible; I listened for 10 minutes and had to give up. It's the first time I've "heard" spelling mistakes. The narrator didn't feel like reading, didn't pronounce well, and what she said wasn't interesting at all. Entrance to the temple is now €20, payable separately.

Una bonita excursion y un templo espectacular. Un poco abusivo el precido por acceder a verlo de cerca (20 € por persona), simplemente por dejarte atravesar la valla que han puesto alrededor. La guia, Angela, muy simpática aunque ni idea de español, asi es que pocas posibilidades de resolver dudas o pequeños problemas si no hablas inglés o griego...

A beautiful excursion and a spectacular temple. The price for a close-up view (€20 per person) is a bit steep, simply for letting you pass through the fence they've put up around it. The guide, Angela, was very friendly, although she didn't speak any Spanish, so there's little chance of resolving questions or minor problems if you don't speak English or Greek.

La actividad está muy bien, es una experiencía única. La chica que nos acompaño era muy amable y también nos explicó cosas muy interesantes. La audioguía, a mi parecer dejaba bastante de desear porque leía FATAL Se tiene que tener en cuenta que hay días que está nublado y no se ve la puesta de sol. Lo que a mí me parecio una estafa es pagar los 20€ a parte para entrar dentro del recinto del templo, no es culpa de la empresa, pero a mi parecer la entrada es carisima para ver un templo. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was great; it was a unique experience. The girl who accompanied us was very friendly and also explained some very interesting things. The audio guide, in my opinion, was a bit lacking because it read "FATAL." It's important to keep in mind that there are cloudy days and you can't see the sunset. What struck me as a rip-off was paying the extra €20 to enter the temple grounds. It's not the company's fault, but in my opinion, the entrance fee is very expensive for a temple. Opinion translated.

Realmente, pagas un autobus que te lleve al destino, FIN. No esta bien informada la descripcion, dicen 10€ la entrada cuando son 20€. De haberlo sabido no hubieramos ido, me parece un desfas pagar casi 30€ solo por un bus, cuandi podriamos haber cogido transporte publico.

Actually, you pay for a bus to take you to your destination. END. The description isn't well-informed; they say €10 for admission when it's actually €20. If we had known, we wouldn't have gone. It seems absurd to pay almost €30 just for a bus, when we could have taken public transport.

La excursión, un poco larga, fue bien. El problema es que era viernes santo, el templo cerraba a las 17, y habíamos comprado el atardecer en Sunion., salienso de Atenas a las 16. Esto se tenía que saber al reservar las entradas y nos lo dijeron el mismo día. El guía bien

The excursion, a bit long, went well. The problem was that it was Good Friday, the temple closed at 5 p.m., and we had purchased the sunset ticket at Sounion, leaving Athens at 4 p.m. This had to be known when booking the tickets, and we were informed the same day. The guide was excellent.

Una audioguía muy completa y una guía que completaba la información en un inglés muy fácil de entender y que además sabía también otros idiomas si necesitabas ayuda. El viaje es todo por la costa y vas viendo otras cosas y conociendo un poco los alrededores de Atenas. Muy recomendable Translate this opinion into English.

El guía hablaba en inglés y español, Iba dando indicaciones y era muy amable, pero realmente las explicaciones de los parajes las daba el audioguía, los paisajes eran increíbles pero hizo un día nublado de viento frío terrible y eso fastidió la excursión, se debería de cancelar la actividad en esas condiciones o al menos avisarlo, viajábamos con niños pequeños y tuvimos que dejarlos en la cafetería y subir al templo por turnos por que era inviable subir con ellos al templo en esas condiciones.

The guide spoke English and Spanish. He gave directions and was very friendly, but the explanations of the places were actually given by the audio guide. The scenery was incredible, but it was a cloudy day with a terribly cold wind, which ruined the excursion. The activity should have been cancelled under these conditions, or at least given notice. We were travelling with small children, and we had to leave them in the cafeteria and take turns going up to the temple because it was impossible to go up to the temple with them under these conditions.

Si bien contemplar la puesta de sol resulta agradable, creo que no justifica su precio. El bus inició su recorrido más tarde de lo previsto, y el trayecto fue sumamente lento. La audioguía en español es una falta de respeto para cualquier hispanohablante, con errores groseros de puntuación y acentuación. Los datos proporcionados son escasos y no se vinculan a la historia del sitio. La guía prácticamente no habló en todo el recorrido. No recomiendo realizarla

While watching the sunset is enjoyable, I don't think it's worth the price. The bus started later than scheduled, and the journey was extremely slow. The Spanish audio guide is disrespectful to any Spanish speaker, with gross punctuation and accentuation errors. The information provided is sparse and unrelated to the site's history. The guide barely spoke at all during the entire tour. I don't recommend taking it.
