It was fantastic! Best Segway trip we have done, our guide went above and beyond to show us extra things and make sure we had the best time!!
Alex was great. It was just 3 of us so a little more intimate. We went all over. We had done some tours earlier in the week that brought us to some of the sites so Alex took us around showing us sites we hadn’t seen. We always had water, stopped to get some shade as he explained the site. We were always safe even with all the people around. We really enjoyed our 2 hr tour around Athens. Highly recommend
Booked this last last minute really glad we did. We recieved comprehensive training before setting off, the Segways were very easy to drive and the instructions from Demie were so easy to follow. The Changing of the Guards at the Presidential Palace was truly worth watching.
It was wonderful, the highlight of our Athens trip... after a short introduction we started and although we had no experience with Segways, we quickly felt safe through our attentive guide. Our tour guide gave an exciting account of the sights and led us to places we would not have discovered on our own. Although we could see so much, there was always time for a photo top and our wishes were taken into account. There were even tips for things to do in the next few days. We would do the tour again anytime!
I was hesitant to book the tour after spending a few days in Athens already but i decided to book the experience and i have absolutely no regrets! Menelaus was the best tour guide I could have had. He was knowledgable, patient and a great photographer! I really enjoyed the history behind all the sites. 2 thumbs up 😊
Great way to see lots of Athens and hear about the history. Our guide was very knowledgeable and catered the tour to what we wanted to see or hadn't already.
We had a brilliant time! Great fun and a super way to whizz round the city. Would definitely recommend this tour, especially during hot weather.
We had Zina as our tour guide for this tour and she was really knowledgeable about Everything we saw, including the changing of the guard! We saw things we didn’t even know were here and had some excellent views while we were on the way. All the other staff were super friendly and helpful too.
Saw sights we wouldn't otherwise have seen as we didn't know about them. Knowledgeable guide, great way to get around. Did the ancient tour first and then this one the next day. Highly recommend it
My family had a great time. Two of us had never rode a Segway and were a bit nervous and Stelios did a great job getting everyone acclimated. Before you knew you were “one with the Segway”. While on the tour, he was very engaging with a great sense of humor. Learned so much about Athens and all the sites we saw. It was so much fun that we extended the tour by an hour. Highly recommend this company and especially Stelios.
