10/10 service
Yiannis met us on his day off to rent us two e-bikes. We had a brilliant day cycling out to the port (on a well defined bike track) and swimming at Athen’s beaches. Highly recommend seeing Athen’s via e-bike. Thank you Yiannis!

Very knowledgable of the sites, was very accomodating of anything we needed like water, and above all gave us a very fun memorable day we will always remember.

This trip was amazing. Andreas tailored the experience for our group- shorter some places , longer others. it was one of the best- if not the best part of our trip. He was very attentive to our comfort and even the bike seats were comfortable!
We did this trip a few months ago and still talk about it daily. I would definitely recommend it was great!!!
Operator response
Thank you very-very much! Its nice to know that we have created some nice memories. Take care!

Just Do It!
This is a great way to sample the most interesting parts of the city. There are stops along the way, and you can make plans to return later to explore more. This beats any car or bus tour as you are immersed in the city. Constantin Vegas, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in the history and important buildings of Athens. Tip: splurge for the electric bikes! A lot of the route is flat but there are occasions where you’ll need it!

Fantastic electric bike tour
This tour is fantastic! Andreas, the guide knows all about the history of the places he takes us, and knows all the tricks to avoid the crazy traffic of Athens! In addition he is very flexible, he does his “Taylor Made” tours for the group he leads. As we understand each other well between cyclists, we saw places inaccessible to the usual tourists. Finally, bikes are perfect for traffic in Athens, ultra-efficient, easy to handle, light, a real happiness... Steps for a shortcut? No problem, it passes 😎 Go ahead, they will not regret it!
Operator response
Merci! It was a pleasure to show you our city on our bikes!

Must do e-bike tour of Athens - great fun way to explore the sites with best tour guide
Best tour of the holiday! Am not a particularly confident cyclist and thought I might struggle to keep up but so glad I did this fantastic tour. Bikes were so easy to use and our excellent guide made sure we stayed together. Tour covered main tourist sites but also lots of less well known places of interest. Really informative and great fun! Unlike other tours, groups are kept small so everyone is catered for.

Thank you very-very much! Its always a pleasure to have happy guests. Take care

FANTÁSTICO, SUPER RECOMENDO, AMEI.
Amei, Andreas, nosso guia foi excelente. Andreas, our guide, was excellent, cheerful, humorous, fun and knowledgeable and goodwill. The tour is around the tourist attractions, we went to all of them with a good explanation of the place. It is necessary to have the ability to drive the bike through the streets, although Andreas is patient and always waits for us, helping with photos and with everything necessary, including cold water along the way. We loved it, I highly recommend it, much better than Hop on, crowded, time-consuming and going to the same places.

Thank you very much! It was a pleasure

Interesting & funny tour with guide Andreas
Today we had a very nice and funny bike tour through the highlights of the center of Athens.
Our tour guide Andreas told us many details of the history of Greek, buildings and famous people. We had the best place at the parade and he gave us a lot of insights of Greek. Sometimes other people wanted to join our tour due to the best mix of information and funny stories of our very friendly tour guide Andreas. He speaks fluently English which we as German understood quite well.
If you want to visit the most popular places in the center of Athens, we recommend to book this tour! It’s really worth!

Thank you very much!

We visited most of the major sites in Athens in three hours. Our guide Yennis was very knowledgeable and the ebikes were in great condition and easy to operate. When we come back to Athens we are going to do it again.
