Traveler reviews
Tour guide Katerina was...
Tour guide Katerina was great and bus driver was great. The destination was beautiful. I would only recommend since we’re at that location we could be given time to explore the little town under the site for an hour.
Just know what you are buying
You are basically just buying a bus ticket with this purchase, the bus doesn't make multiple stops but it's a bus there a bus back a little of knowledge from the guide on the bus but won't go up to the temple with you it's an hour and half there and an hour and a half back, 1 hour there. Super amazing temple, you do have to buy a 20e ticket. So just for transparency that's what you are buying
Beautiful ride up to...
Beautiful ride up to Temple of Poseidon. Our guide Kat gave us interesting information on the ride up. The cost to go up to the temple was expensive for what it was but still interesting to see the temple and the views.
Bus tour was very good,...
Bus tour was very good, but disappointing that you're not allowed to walk through the temple of Poseidon after paying 20 euros per person.
Great site but long trip there and back
Kat was a great tour guide! Just be advised that you’re spending 3+ hours total in a bus (with amazing scenery) for 1 hr at a small site.
