Passionate guide Niek
Niek de Griek was our guide and what a passionate man that man is! He told it so aptly and engagingly and did everything to show us as much as possible. It was a nice bike ride.

Super "appetizer" for Athens
Done on the 1st day, great for getting your bearings in the city. Irini speaks French incredibly well (but also plenty of other languages from what we could see). She also gave us good advice. We preferred to reschedule the activity because of rain, and we were glad we did: just great with the sun! A must-do without hesitation, no difficulty with the electric bikes and safe routes.

Highly recommend for a fun an active way to explore historical highlights
Our tour with Rhea was one of our favorite parts of our trip! We booked this for our first night of our honeymoon in Athens and it gave us a great introduction to the history of the city and made us feel more familiar with the city for the next couple days. We loved the electric bikes! So easy to ride. Felt like an adventure and able to cover so much ground quickly. Rhea was a great guide, very knowledgeable and personable. 10/10 would recommend

Fabulous Tour
Fantastic tour. Rhea was knowledgeable and simplified everything, such a great guide. Bikes were easy to use and we were provided cold water.
M
Great tour on 2 wheels
Excellent tour and guide. You can see so much more in a shorter amount of time on a bike. The guide was very informative, friendly, and generous with his time.

It's a great way to see...
It's a great way to see and learn history of Athens! Riding ebikes is fun and you can cover more ground than by walking.

Highly recommended!
Best part of our trip! Great and very informative guide! I loved the electric bikes as they were easy to adjust to. I highly recommend this outfit. I would do it again in a heart beat! I did it the last day of our time in Athens and it was a great culminating activity. It would also be great as an introduction to Athens!
