Traveler reviews
Athens tour guide Marios was GREAT!
This was a great tour and a highlight of our trip! Marios was GREAT! His knowledge of the city and fun way of guiding made the tour so fun! If we ever make it back to Athens, we will do this tour again (with Marios!) for sure!
E-bike Athens tour
Nice way to get oriented, see all major sites. Not too crowded in October. Alex kept us entertained and laughing throughout the tour. Quite enjoyable!
The best way to see Athens
Really well organised, amazing tour and on a bike so much ground is covered. Unless you are a very keen cyclist I would recommend the e-bike, as the pedal assisted motor means that you feel like you are always peadling on the flat (and Athens is hilly) You still have to pedal all the time, but its like you have a friend pedaling with you making it easy We had Stephanie, who was an amazing bundle of energy who absolutely made the tour
Good fun, safe experience
We had a great experience on the ebike tour led by Jim. Having experienced the driving chaos of Athens on arrival i was slightly concerned about cycling in the city. I need not have been - there was hardly any interaction with cars in the 2.5 hours as the route kept to pedestrian areas and small side streets. In fact the closest we came to jeopardy was when meeting some wobbly riders in another bike tour! Helmets were provided and we felt very safe throughout. I hadn’t ridden an ebike before but enjoyed the experience and certainly appreciated it on some of the hills. We covered 5 miles on the tour with lots of stops so it wasn’t a challenging pace. Our guide Jim delivered a good balance of history, local knowledge and recommendations. Overall it was a fun experience and a good way to cover a lot of Athens in a short time.
Highly recommend$
My friend and I loved our experience! It was so much fun and our guide Chuck was great! We spent over two hours seeing the city on e-bikes and we covered so much ground! I would do this again in a heart beat!
