A typical timing

Indicative — every experience is privately composed and timed around you.

  1. 15:30Private car along the Apollo Coast
  2. 16:30Stop at Vouliagmeni
  3. 18:30Cape Sounion — Temple of Poseidon as the sun drops
  4. 20:00Private dinner on the water
  5. 22:30Return transfer to Athens
Why do this

Drive the coast road south as Athenians have for a hundred summers — past the marinas of Vouliagmeni to the Temple of Poseidon at Sounion, timed so the columns turn gold as the Aegean turns navy. Dinner is private, on the water.

Who will enjoy it

Romantics, photographers, returning visitors who want a different Athens. Anyone who believes the best meal is the one with the longest view.

A sensory guide

How each of the five senses is engaged through the course of the experience.

Sight
Doric columns against an open horizon; the wake of a single sailboat below.
Sound
Wind through marble, gulls, the distant hush of surf on rock.
Scent
Sea salt, wild oregano on the cliff, charcoal from a beachfront grill.
Taste
Grilled fish, lemon, a chilled white from Attica's coastal vineyards.
Touch
Warm stone under bare feet at the end of the day; linen against sun-warmed skin.
