We ended up being the only two people on our tour as we were the only English speaking guests in the morning. We had a wonderful time cycling around Athens. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The streets in Athens are quite hilly so we had to work hard on the 3-speed bikes provided. If you feel you don’t want such a workout, the company has e-bikes to rent. We would highly recommend this tour. We learned so much about Athens! Ingrid

Great Bike Tour

Perfect tour!

Michel was amazing! Such a good way to see the city, we were only in athens for 2 days so was perfect to do!

Fun bike tour.

Indy_V, Jul 2024

Michelle did a great job as our guide. There was only four of us total, which was very nice. The only thing was at the very end it was a bit uncomfortable weaving in and out of traffic to get back to the bike place. I just wonder if there is a safer way to get back. I do think you need to be in fairly decent shape to do the ride. Otherwise it was great and I highly recommend.

Great way to see the city

Easy and relaxed pace. Informative tour, see the sights around Athens and learn about the city. Staff was super friendly and accommodating.

Fun way to see Athens

Jaye_Z, Jun 2024

It was hot but our guide Michelle did a great job of finding shade. We saw a great deal of Athens that we wouldn’t have seen in one complete experience. Bikes were ok. Route was safe even though it was very crowded- we just had to be patient at times.

A great way to get our bearings in Athens.

We planned this as our first activity coming off the airplane to help us stay awake while adjusting to the time change. Our guide was pleasant. We had to walk our bikes through some very crowded areas and busy streets since it was during rush hour. Not sure I’d recommend that timing for young families. We also wish that we could have ridden more. Grateful for the e-bikes!

THE bike tour for athens

Excellent small group tour of city with Marie….nice pace, great tastings and conversation. Highly recommend.

A really enjoyable tour

james_g, Nov 2023

This was a really good tour. The guide nick took us around places that we wouldn’t have found if we had just stuck to the normal tourist site. So we would definitely recommend this easy paced bike tour.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Hi James, Thanks for the positive review! Nice to hear that you discovered the city in this fun way under the guidance of Niek🌟

Great experience

Candace_S, Sep 2023

Great experience! We saw alot in a short amount of time. Our guide was very informative and fun. Great way to spend our day in athens.

Great Guide, Great Ride!

Joaquin_L, Aug 2023

This company was very accommodating to us allowing us to change the date the same day. And we are so glad we didn’t miss this! To sum it up, great guide, great ride. You will see so much from the Acropolis to the changing of the guard. Artwork, stories and history (from our fantastic, Dutch/Greek (basketball playing guide) ruins, and sorbet/traditional yogurt/gelato mid-ride. it’s a very easy and fun ride for people who bike. Many thanks!!! — Miami, Florida

Great first day in Athens!

Carolee_D, Aug 2023

Nick was the best, very personal and knowledgeable and catered to our interests. Would have liked to do it longer if it wasn’t so hot!!!

Great tour - Do it!

James_R, May 2023

A great way to see the city in half a day. Our guide Stefanos was very knowledgeable and made everything fun.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank your very much for your great review! Stefanos also had a great time with you guys!! Hope to see you back in the future. :)

Everything is better on a bike…

Albert_F, Dec 2022

…and that goes for Athens as well, even if cycling is not the most accepted mode of transport in the city, but our engaging, mercurial guide made us feel safe and gave us the best overview over the main landmarks that one could wish for. My most enjoyable sightseeing experience in the city.

Recommend doing as one of your first activities in Athens

Donna_K, Sep 2022

Great tour and a great guide. Perfect way to get your bearings around Athens. Makes it very easy to explore on foot after you know your way around.

Response from Host, Oct 2022
