What an amazing sunset tour. Our guide, Stergios was so wonderful. He took us to all of the beautiful, historical sites in Athens. Was full of interesting information. Informed us of all of the best places for photo opportunities. He even showed us the best place to stand for the changing of the guards ceremony. He was truly wonderful and so patient. I highly recommend this tour with Sergios.

Our family of five had an incredible experience with our tour guide, Ste. He was well educated about the sites that he showed us. Taking a tour of Athens by electric bike allowed us to get around easily. Ste also made recommendations on restaurants that did not disappoint.

This was such a great excursion. Rhea was a great host. I would definitely do this in the AM to avoid the head.
Georgina_B, Jun 2026
Absolutely fantastic. Our guide was brilliant. Very knowledgeable, friendly and smiley throughout. The timings were perfect and we definitely discovered things we wouldn’t have found ourselves. It exceeded our expectations.
Carol_R, Jun 2026
Ste was our guide. He was amazing. We saw a lot of Athens. Ste explained history and fun facts along the way. The whole family enjoyed this tour.
Jessica_S, Jun 2026
This was a wonderful experience. The bikes were in great condition. The tour was lovely and went all around the Acropolis so we saw some pretty amazing sites. Neek, our guide, was funny, informative, and just an all around nice guy. The tour took approximately 2.5 hours and we had plenty of stops to get off the bikes and walk around too. He even timed the tour so we were able to see the changing of the guard up close and personal. We felt safe riding through the city. Highly recommend, especially if you are only in the city for a short time.

We had a fabulous time on the tour. Rhea was friendly and informative. Saw so much of Athens. Highly recommend.

Nancy_M, May 2026
George was great! We got lucky and had a small group. We were able to hit all the highlights of Greece, including changing of the guard at the Presidents palace!
George had great suggestions for dinner as well, great off the beaten path!
Shirley_P, May 2026
It was very informative and our tour guide Stergios was very knowledgeable. He made sure we stayed safe. Best tour we have had.

A great day with very knowledgeable, engaging, personable guide. Seven stops at historical sites. Bikes were in great shape and made for an easy ride
Worth every penny

Perfect bike tour to see all the sights. George was a great guide.. fun experience! The bikes were very easy to ride.
Jostina_K, May 2026
George was fantastic and very knowledgeable for our ebike tour. We were so lucky to be the only two and essentially had a private tour of Athens. We're here on our honeymoon and it made our time in Athens so special. Would highly recommend!
Theresa_K, Apr 2026
Wonderful way to see Athens. Our guide, Lisa, was a delight and a wealth of information. Being on a bike we were able to get a great feel for the city.
Patrick_B, Apr 2026
George the Great was wonderful. We booked a small group tour but it was just me and my fiancé and George was wonderful to spend time with, great guide, informative, charming and kind. Pedal assisted bicycles are the only way to tour even if you think you are a strong cyclist.
Caroline_B, Apr 2026
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.

Great way to see the main sights and then decide where to spend more time after. Dennis, my guide, was SUPER knowledgable of the city and history.
Kelly_H, Mar 2026
Fabulous tour! George was awesome!! Highly recommend! This is a great way to see Athens. You do bike through people walking so it can be a bit intimidating.

We had an absolutely fantastic bike tour in Athens with Sterios — truly one of the highlights of our trip.
From the very beginning, Sterios was friendly, respectful, and genuinely funny, and we clicked with him instantly. He has an impressive depth of knowledge about Athens and its sights, but what really stood out was how naturally he shared it — engaging, relaxed, and never overwhelming. As our first tour guide in Athens, he honestly set the bar very high.
It had rained the night before, and Sterios thoughtfully adjusted the route to avoid muddy or slippery paths, which we really appreciated. That kind of situational awareness and care made us feel completely comfortable and well looked after throughout the tour.
He also took the time to recommend excellent bars and restaurants around the city. We didn’t manage to try all of them during our stay, but the ones we did visit were spot on — fantastic recommendations that we’re still talking about.
This was our first “touristy” bike ride, and we loved it far more than we expected. The time flew by without us even noticing, and we still think back on how much fun we had. Sterios truly elevated the entire experience and made it memorable in the best possible way.
Highly, highly recommended.

Our e-bike tour was fabulous! Ste, the tour guide was patient, safety conscious and so knowledgeable. Our family group of 8 included 2 kids (ages 6 & 9 on the back of bikes) and an active 70yo. We were able to cover a lot of ground, see Athens highlights with historical context, and received great recommendations along the way. 10/10, would recommend. Thanks, Ste!
Alicia_C, Nov 2025
This was the best way to start my Athens trip! If I do nothing else but this I will be happy!! So friendly and kind and simply wonderful! I wish I could give this 100 stars!
Steven_G, Nov 2025
This was such an amazing way to experience the Acropolis and nearby areas! We were going to do it first day to orient ourselves, but due to rain put it off til last day in Athens. A great way to recap and to see everything from new angles. Our guide Reya (not sure spelling) was funny, nice, and super knowledgeable. We got our absolute best views of the Acropolis and temples atop, rode through Plaka and Monastiraki streets, saw the Zeus temple, wound through the gorgeous National Gardens, and she took us to see the changing of the guard around the corner from Syntagma in front of the president's residence. No crowds at all unlike the other place! The bikes were comfortable and easy to ride and she was very careful to make sure were were all safe and together at all times. Completely worth it and a great way to begin or end a trip to Athens or at any time!
Mark_S, Oct 2025
What a ride! George, our guide, was funny, knowledgeable and savvy. Timed our tour very strategically given time of day and crowds. George and this tour are highly recommended. Super fun!
Allison_H, Oct 2025
What an amazing time we had. If you go, ask for Stelios (sp) who was do thoughtful abd knowledgeable about every site we visited. It’s obvious he has a passion for his work and is truly a lovely person! If you go, be sure you’re comfortable on a bike (don’t worry about it being ab electric bike) and that you can navigate crowds on a bike, because you’ll be in the thick of Athens tourist. But it was so worth it! Highly recommend!
Naiele_O, Oct 2025
AMAZING! Our guide Ste was super knowledgeable, accommodating, professional, and personable! I went with my teen and toddler daughters and we had an amazing time! Climbing uphill was effortless on the e-bikes. Dodging tourists was the tricky part, but Ste led our party pretty well. The only downside.. the seats were a little rough, but I blame my short stature (4’11) and needing to bear all the weight on my pelvic area. This tour made our trip in Athens very enjoyable!
Thijs_H, Oct 2025
Having Niek as our tour guide really made the difference! He knows so much and shares it all. Together with some excellent bikes, you will enjoy this trip a lot!
Ike_F, Oct 2025
George was our fantastic bike riding guide. Because it was Sunday he took us to a remote spot so we could see the changing of the guard. That in an of itself was worth the price of the ticket. George took pictures. He took us to unique spots and gave us time to look around. He guided us through the masses of people with patients and a calmness that helped us all to enjoy the ride.
JULIO_G, Oct 2025
The guide was a great guy, he shared many insights about the (glorious) history of Athens and took us through the main spots of the city, telling us stories, fun facts and important pieces of information about the amazing heritage Greece has given to humankind. He was also careful that nobody got lost and always kept an eye on our safety, particularly of the youngest members of the group. Definitely a great host to show Athens !
Angela_F, Sep 2025
What a fantastic way to really visit different parts of Athens and see many historical sights. Very educational and fun!
Dianne_J, Sep 2025
Informative and enjoyable cycle tour. We received excellent information on the many historical treasures of Athens. All while avoiding Athens busy streets.
Alyssa_K, Sep 2025
We had such a fantastic time on our e-bike tour through Athens! What made the experience truly special was our wonderful guide — a kind and knowledgeable young woman who made the tour feel incredibly personal and unique.
As it turned out, it was just the two of us on the tour, which meant she tailored the entire experience to our interests and pace. She was super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about the history and culture of Athens. Her knowledge of the city — from ancient landmarks to local stories — brought everything to life in such a fun and engaging way.
The e-bikes were a perfect way to explore Athens! They made getting around the city smooth and easy, even in the September heat. We got to see all the major highlights — including some off-the-beaten-path spots — without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
It felt more like a fun day out with a local friend than a typical tour. We learned a lot, laughed along the way, and left with a much deeper appreciation for the city.
We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Athens — especially if you're lucky enough to have her as your guide!
