Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis

Roxanne_C, Sep 2026

Must Do

We did the e-bike tour at 5:00 PM, and it was absolutely perfect. The weather was beautiful, and riding in the evening made the experience even more enjoyable. We were able to see so many places that were already on our list, but instead of spending the day walking between them, we got to explore Athens comfortably by e-bike. It was such a fun and easy way to see more of the city in less time! Our tour guide, Chuck, was excellent! He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience fun and memorable.

Premium Delphi Day Trip with an Expert Guide, Museum & Lunch

Dennis_S, Sep 2026

Enjoy a slice of antiquity!

Very good, thorough tour with an expert guide. Seeing the countryside on the way to the site is a plus. Delphi site and museum are memories that will last a lifetime. As is typical with tours in Greece, there are a lot of steps and uneven pavement. Views are amazing. I recommend adding the lunch to your itinerary. Having lunch, which was very good, in incredibly picturesque Arachova was an unexpected bonus.

A Perfect blend of HIstory

We had plenty of time to soak in the atmosphere, ask questions, and enjoy ourselves without ever feeling rushed.

Absolutely fantastic!

John the archaeologist was our tour guide. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the Acropolis, I have never seen anything like it, it made the experience so much better he cares so much about the acropolis and Parthenon, he even told the people next to us who were not part of our tour to stop eating their apple, he really wants to preserve this piece of history. I would highly recommend this tour and especially John the archaeologist as your tour guide, there is no one else like him, trust me.

Perfect day trip from Athens

Beautiful day to get out of the city and explore some of them are gorgeous local islands. The boat ride is super relaxing can lay in the shade on a lounger. The food was great. We went swimming at two of the stops and had a great time. Definitely a highlight of our trip.

This was a great tour,...

This was a great tour, well worth getting out of Athens the explore the coast side and beautiful vistas. The Temple of Poseidon was a marvel to see and the short swim and lunch at the beach side was the highlight. Our guide Elili and driver Manos were wonderful. 10/10 highly recommend.

Wonderful tour, great driver/guide!

Ros our driver was personable, knowledgeable and respectful of our wants. He was happy to explain history of the areas we explored. We asked to minimize some steps after we had maxed out our knees and he was happy to oblige and gave us directions that still allowed us to see the sites! Added the extension to see Poseidons temple which was awesome!

The whole trip was excellent. From the moment we were picked up to the moment we got back to our hotel everything was taken care of. The staff communication was excellent and it was a very relaxed day at sea. Food and snacks were plentiful and extremely good. Any minor points that previous reviews have raised weren’t an issue on our trip. Get yourself booked on this trip.

A must if you enjoy sampling Greek food.

No need to eat before the tour as you'll definitely will be full by the end. Nikolas, our guide, made sure we tasted the iconic Greek cuisine and provided a brief Greek history throughout the excursion. We did the 5:30 pm tour and were fortunate to have met a group of people who also enjoyed sampling food.
