Fabulous private e-bike tour of Athens with Stergios (Ste). I had done the same tour with George 2 years ago when i was on a girls holiday. This tour was a private tour and Ste was so knowledgable and told us all the Myths and Legends of Athens. I would highly recommend this tour as you see so much of Athens in a short time. The changing of the guard is a highlight for us as-well as the Gyros at the end from Ste's best Gyros restaurant in Athens and it certainly did not disappoint, it was delicious. All round excellent tour and great company with great bikes 😊x

Tour guide was well...

Bruce_W, Sep 2025
Tour guide was well informed and the bikes worked great. We also stopped for souvlaki and that was excellent.

Great way to jump right...

Jen_F, Sep 2025
Great way to jump right into Athens - we were only going to be in Athens 24H, so we wanted to see as much as possible. Be warned- biking in Athens city center is not for the faint of heart. Our guide Constantinos took us to more locals areas for views that were spectacular and there was no one there, right to all the major highlights of the ruins and even things we wouldn't have even known to see. Definitely recommend, just make sure you are up to the challenge of weaving through all the people that are not paying attention.

Fun tour of Athens

Chris_M, Sep 2025
E-bike tour of Athens was perfect. It was just George and I. We covered a lot a ground and he was very knowledgeable. He is also a great story teller and has lived a very interesting life. Great tour and great guide!

Great Way to see Athens

Karen_C, Jun 2025
Nick provided an incredible experience for me and my family - kicking off our two week cruise. We STILL talk about this tour.

Wonderful day in Athens!

Kristin_B, Jan 2025
We had a wonderful day in Athens, and this excursion was the best. My husband just asked me what I enjoyed most from our trip to Italy and Greece, I believe this day with Rhea in Athens was it!! Her love of history was contagious.

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank you Kristin for your review!

Rhea guided tour of Athens

Martin_B, Oct 2024
Rhea guided us expertly around ancient Greece’s most historical and interesting sites in Athens. Rhea spoke perfect English and was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic, she made our tour really enjoyable. Highly recommend Rhea and this tour to give you a grounding in Greek and Athens history.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that Rhea made your tour enjoyable with her knowledge and enthusiasm. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for more discoveries in Athens!

Fantastic way to see historic Athens!

Christine_F, Sep 2024
This is definitely the way to see historical Athens, particularly on a hot day. The e-bikes were fantastic, we stayed off the busy roads so were quite safe, and we had a great guide Stergios who was so knowledgeable, conscientious. He made the day! Our only complaint was that it wasn’t long enough- we were so enjoying the experience. Thanks Stergios!!

Response from Host, Sep 2024

Thank you Christine for your review! We hope you enjoyed your time in Athens!

Great ride

Best Athens Experience

Glenn_C, Jul 2024
Lauren our guide (and business owner) was so delightful and informative about all the sites we got to see. It was about 100 degrees, but our Athens experience was amazing. We enjoyed the e-bikes as a way to quickly and comfortably get around the city and up the hills surrounding the Acropolis. Lauren has a team of employees that are placed around the city and this network made it possible to walk to see certain views and enter a few key sites. The bikes were watched by someone always. One of the other tour groups had a flat tire occur with a child size bike. The network of her employees quickly dispatched a replacement bike to get that group going quickly. I was so impressed with the great service and wonderful experience. Athens is a must see place, and this is the way to do it.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thank you so much for your detailed review and we are glad you liked it so much. Kudos to Jo for his quick action on the flat tyre indeed :)

Learn something new…

Hi! Thanks for your review and we are glad you enjoyed the right amount of information.

Great private tour

Brian_B, Jun 2024
Ste was a great guide. We have done bike tours all over the world. This one was more expensive than most but that was because it was a private tour - for just the two of us. We felt it was worth the price - had a great time.

Perfect Athens bike ride

Catherine_C, Jun 2024
Sergios was an incredible tour guide. He was attentive, extremely knowledgeable and took us to so many places we wouldn’t have found on our own. It was a great bike ride through Athens for new comers to get your bearings and learn so much history. Ste gave us tips for the islands and local restaurant tips. Bikes were fabulous! Highly recommend to anyone.

This was a great way to...

History meets modern: Athens by e-bike

Jan_C, Aug 2023
We had a fantastic 3hr sightseeing tour with Marina. She was a great tour guide. Went in a circle around the Akropolis with beautiful views of Athens, visited many places and received lots of information. The e-bikes were in good shape. We had a blast.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Hi Jan, thank you for the amazing review! We put in the work to make sure you and all the other riders leave happy:)

2 thumbs up!

The tour was the perfect way to learn about Athens. Our group of 5 (with 3 teens) loved the experience.

No better way for your first day in a new international city than with Viator tours. Host (Vengeles) was excellent.

Response from Host, Sep 2022

Thank you so much for joining us on our tour! we are glad you liked it.

Riding the electric bikes...

IraLevineDDS, Jun 2022
Riding the electric bikes is not as intuitive as you might think. Especially since the paths were extremely crowded with people. Bad time to try to get used to a bike. Natalia and Joshua were very sweet and went way out of their way to accommodate us.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Hi Ira! oooh thank you so much for writing us a review. Indeed the evening and weekends are crowded on the street in the beginning of the tour. I hope maybe one day we can do it still and you will let us know.

Great Fun!

Georgia_H, Jun 2022
Great fun riding bike around Athens! Loved our tour and the guide was great. Got to see the birth place of democracy! The best was standing on Mars Hill where the apostle Paul taught Christianity!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thanks for your review! We are glad you enjoyed the tour :)

Much better than walking, for those who are short of time

Jose_R, May 2022
Much easier then expected. Several places in a few hours. Alowing to see practically the same details as if it was walking.

What a great experience!

ALICIA_M, Jun 2019
Our tour guide was Marina and she was wonderful. This tour is a lot o fun and I greatly recommend it ! Both of us are in our sixties and we enjoyed it a lot. Marina of course knew a lot and was very pleasant! The bikes were also in great shape. We truly recommend it
