Traveler reviews
Great e bike ride
Great guide loved the timing of the tour. He was so knowledgeable
Great experience!!
Excellent tour. Our guide, Aggelos, was fantastic. Super knowledgeable and very friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I highly recommend this tour. It was a great way to see it all and the e-bikes made it easy. We loved the information and the color provided by Aggelos, it just would not have been the same without him.
What an amazing experience!
What an amazing experience, for soooo many reasons! First and foremost, our guide, Alex, was phenomenal! His professionalism, care and sense of humour put us all at ease, and helped our little group 'gel' (I was travelling alone, and joined up with 2 parents and their 3 kids). He was full of knowledge about the places we visited, and always answered our questions. I arrived in Athens the previous day, and chose this tour to get a 'feel' of the city, and identify places to come back to. It was the perfect choice! During the tour, Alex took us to so many places, and we stopped at a few key spots for photos. His timing for the changing of the guard near the Olympic stadium at 11:20 was impeccable! I'm used to cycling, but this was my 1st e-bike experience! Wow! My trusty steed, Vera❤️, and I made a great pair, and going up hill in 36°C heat was much more bearable! Alex made sure we all knew how to use the bike (switch it on, change gears, adjust how much power we needed, etc.). He always checked to make sure we were all presented and accounted for, and went back to find any stragglers. The bikes themselves were very well maintained, and more than capable of handling a few bumpy roads/pavements. The tour was around 2.5 hours, but it felt much shorter, without feeling rushed. It was over much too soon! I would highly recommend the tour, the company and Alex, to anyone wanting to have an enjoyable experience in good company, see Athens, and do a little bit of exercise!
Bike Tour in Athens
Marios was fun and informative on our bike tour around Athens. We learned a lot about the culture and what life in the city of Athens is like. He took the time to give us great tips on restaurants and things to do while we visited. We highly recommend this tour while visiting Athens! Demos was our other tour guide on this entertaining Athens tour who took us to the Acropolis. It was evident by his enthusiasm and love of Athens’ history that Demos truly enjoys what he does in teaching others on a daily basis about the wonderful city of Athens.
Bike portion was great
The e-bike ride was fantastic! Alex was great. We were able to see the highlights of Athens and cover a lot of ground in 2.5 hours. We also booked the Acropolis visit. We didn't realize this was a completely separate guided tour. The Acropolis walking tour left within 3 minutes of completing the biking tour. It took about 2 hours to reach the Parthenon on a 95 degree day. It was incredibly hard and draining. Our guide was good, but I would have rather hiked to the top of the Acropolis at my own pace. I barely made it.
