Quality of Segway equipment was top notch as was our guide. Partway thru the the tour we stopped for a refreshment and treat that was wonderful. What was NOT wonderful during conversation at stop, the person next to me said she was not vaccinated which was very concerning to me. Stop should not take place if vaccination status is not enforced. The last part of tour is thru a VERY crowded pedestrian area that should be avoided.

George was a great guide. Lots of great information. Great stops and a very nice snack break where George demonstrate how to eat one of his favorite dessert!
Very safe conscious also!

Fantastic experience! George, our guide, was great, he was very knowledgeable and patient with us. He answered questions, made sure we were comfortable on our Segways. The locations we saw were all great. The stop for snacks was a wonderful surprise, quaint little cafe with delicious dessert and drinks. So glad we booked this tour!

My daughter (17) and I were just in Athens for one full day. We chose to do this Segway tour and really enjoyed the experience. It enabled us to get a great feel for the city in several hours. George and Anna-Marie took excellent care of us and as novice riders we soon got the hang of it!! George gave us just the right amount of information to appreciate the sites. Would definitely recommend this company and tour if you are looking for a fun and educational way to see Athens.

This was a fun first tour of Athens. Very quick overview of all the sights to see and going via Segway was a lot of fun. My kids (16 and 14) picked it up really easily and enjoyed the tour. Only wish the tour guide did a better job of making sure the whole group was behind him. We went with another group that insisted on going first and sped up behind the guide - which caused him to go faster - but he also never turned around to see if everyone else was keeping up. As much as we tried to keep up, people walking in the tight streets of Athens would not always yield to us, and we fell behind a couple of times. Not the end of the world but it would have been more pleasant.

We had the best time right from the start of the tour. As soon as we entered the office the whole staff welcomed us and made us feel at home. They pampered us with bottled water and soft drinks. Adonis, our tour guide had amazing knowledge of Athens, Greece, Rome and a lot of Europe. He made our tour very enjoyable.It was an awesome value for the money considering it included water. Soft drinks, coffee and ice cream. Also included complimentary go-pro video footage. They even bought us a cocktail when we got back. We would highly recommend this tour. Great way to see Athens.
