What are people saying about Athens

Christian_V, Apr 2026

Well organized and worth it

The trip was very well organized. Fryni, our guide, was professional and kind and she gave us information about Greek culture through out the whole journey to Delphi. The driver was very pleasant too. Delphi's temple and museum are worth visiting for their historical, cultural and spiritual importance. The trip there is a bit long but doable. I can recommend.

Athens Scenic Electric Bike Tour with optional Acropolis visit

Lori_J, Apr 2026

See a lot of Athens in 2.5 hours

We (my teenaged son and daughter and I) enjoyed a fun afternoon touring Athens with our guide Alex and another family who had joined the tour. Our guide was very good-natured and also shared with us a lot of interesting information about Athens and the sights we were seeing. The bike tour enabled us to see a number of things we would not have had time to see, or would not have known to see, outside of this tour. I especially liked seeing the Panathenaic Stadium and riding through the Agora. I had not ridden an e-bike before and it was certainly helpful in 1 or 2 spots! I recommend this tour; we all enjoyed it.

Not your Mom’s Gyros!

This very special evening included walking through multiple Athens food neighborhoods sampling Greek food and enjoying some different wines, grappa, and ouzo. Most of the foods were things I’d never heard of - all were delicious! Yannis is a real treasure of a guide! He shared so much history along with the incredible food.

Fun and tasty intro to Greek food and more.

Kate takes us on a fun walk through old Athen's neighborhoods, stopping for us to learn about and taste many wonderful foods and drinks. It was more food than we could walk off! On the way back, Kate took us through Little Kook, think Alice in Wonderland themed corner.

We had a great experience...

We had a great experience with the bike tour. We did not know Athens before and found ourselves in a wonderful experience throughout Athens City with our guide Nick. A Dutchman who fell in love with Athens. We saw the historical parts naturally, with a fantastic explanation, however we also learned a lot of other things about the city. It is a trip (more than) worth taking. Do not hesitate to book with WeBike Athens. Poli Efcharisto. From 🇧🇪

After experiencing 4 weeks of European tours, John the Archaeologist is officially our FAVOURITE!

We had the absolute BEST experience with our tour guide John the Archaeologist! Honestly, this wasn’t just a tour. It felt like stepping back in time with someone who truly lives and breathes history. John’s knowledge was incredible, but what really made the day special was how he brought everything to life. Every ruin, every site, every story suddenly had meaning. He explained things in such an engaging, entertaining, and easy-to-understand way that we were completely hooked from start to finish. You can tell he’s genuinely passionate about what he does, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing experience. Great witty humour too! If you’re visiting Athens, do yourself a favour and book a tour with John the Archaeologist. It will completely transform how you see the sights. 10/10, unforgettable, and worth every second!

Athens: Acropolis, Parthenon Guided Walking Tour

Victor_M, Mar 2026

We had an incredible...

We had an incredible experience on our Athens walking tour with an archaeologist—our guide, Peter, was truly outstanding. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Having someone with such deep knowledge and passion for history made everything come to life in a way that no guidebook ever could. Peter explained the historical context, myths, and significance of each site with clarity and enthusiasm, making it engaging for both adults and kids in our group. We especially appreciated how he connected ancient history to what we were seeing in front of us, helping us better understand the importance of each landmark. The pace of the tour was perfect, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and take in the surroundings without feeling rushed. Peter was also very friendly, patient, and attentive to our group’s needs. If you’re visiting Athens, we highly recommend booking a walking tour with an archaeologist—having a guide like Peter adds so much depth and meaning to the experience and makes the history unforgettable!

Love this tour

The tour guide was amazing. She was given facts answering questions from the start and very excited about giving information about the tour. My phone died and she offered to take some pictures and send them to me. Forgot to bring an umbrella or a poncho. She shared her umbrella with me and when in very in depth of every point this to our group. everyone got this little box that was connected to her microphone, so everybody could hear without being right upon our.

Athens Authentic Greek Food Walking Tour (Small Group)

Melanie_S, Nov 2025

Exceptional Tour

We would highly recommend this tour. What we thought was to be a tour only about food was actually a Greek history/food tour. Andreas did a great job of providing samples of local foods. He also provided the background of each food and where the influence came from for the particular dishes we ate. Prepare to come hungry, we had far more food than we could possibly eat. Despite a torrential downpour, Andreas still made the best of the tour. Andreas kept it interesting throughout the tour. He is full of knowledge. It was a wonderful experience.

John_S, Nov 2025

Athens night history and food tour.

What a fun first night in Athens. Danai our guide was young, energetic, witty and took to my humor rather quickly. We also met William from Wisconsin that was on the tour with us. What a pleasurable young man. I look forward to hopefully crossing paths with Danai and William again. If you're looking for a great guide in Athens, look no further, request Danai for your waking tour. Warm Regards, John

Great way to spend your 1st jetlagged day in Athens!

This was a wonderful kickoff experience for our time in Athens! My family was jetlagged and this walking tour was just the right pace for our first day. Our guide was so lovely! We had Greek coffee in Monastiraki, then pies (sweet and savory), then an aperitif, next was wrapping our own souvlaki, followed by charcuterie, and finally honey soaked donuts for dessert. If you l9ve Greek food, this excursion is a real treat! My entire family of 3 generations loved it.
