Booking FAQs

Hotel pickups take place from the lobby. For Airbnb stays, pickup is at the building entrance after coordinating with the driver. Airport and port pickups are arranged at arrivals, where your driver will be waiting with a sign. Your driver is experienced and knowledgeable but not licensed to guide inside archaeological sites. The itinerary may be adjusted due to traffic conditions or operational requirements. Lake Vouliagmeni offers shower and changing facilities for guests. Children must be supervised by an adult throughout the experience.

Carry your own towel for Lake Vouliagmeni. Towels are available for rent on-site if needed. Keep a valid photo ID handy in case it’s required to verify your booking at entry. Set aside extra budget for meals, as well as entrance fees to Lake Vouliagmeni and the Temple of Poseidon (not included in the tour price). Pack swimwear and a change of clothes if you plan to take a dip in the lake. Sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses are recommended, especially during warmer months. Comfortable walking shoes are advised, as exploring the Temple of Poseidon involves some walking.
