Magda is amazing! This activity is convenient ly located near the Metro station. I was concerned about doing a solo activity at night. This was such a memorable experience and Magda knows her history. I'll be returning to Athens again and plan to bring my friends with me to experience this activity. Thank you Magda!

We did the bike tour with Magda at Saturday evening and it was great. We saw the main attractions and monuments of Athens and heard interesting stories about them. Magda also gave good information about restaurants and other things to do in the city she was very patient and kind so I highly recommend this tour because it was a great experience

Perfect Tour

Savannah_H, Mar 2026

Amazing!! Magda was the best guide. We did the 7am ride and it ended up just being the 3 of us. Perfect time to see the city before it gets busy. Would highly recommend!

Awesome ride all around the city!

Joeli_K, Feb 2026

Really fun tour! We rode through so many neighborhoods and got to stop and take pictures of all the main sites. We also saw the changing of the guards which was cool. The only negative is that we rode through a ton of narrow alleys with heavy foot traffic so it was hard at times to navigate through that (but it was fine to just walk the bike through those parts). Overall a great experience and perfect way to get acquainted with all the parts of the city!!

Great way to see the city

Anna_P, Oct 2025

Great way to start you stay in Athens and get to know the city. Our guide Magda wasfriendly, knowledgeable and relaxed

Family with adult son

Allison_M, Oct 2025

Magda was an amazing tour guide. Had a spectacular evening! Highly recommend! She gave several recommendations for Athens and did an amazing job in the busy city

Best way to see all of Athens

Ilariia_L, Oct 2025

I am not an athletic person, but it was not that hard, and I was able to see most of the city, including parts that I would otherwise miss because they are far away. There were enough stops to appreciate and take photos. The guide was amazing! I had so much fun (also the guide shared some recommendations for places to visit, so the tour is great for the beginning of the trip to see the city and get an idea where to go next) Also, I saw 19 cats and about the same number of dogs during the ride (which is a big plus for me)

Evening tour in Athens

Dana_F, Sep 2025

Great Day Biking in Athens with Magda!

Catherine_C, Sep 2025

We had a fantastic day with Magda as our guide. She took us to both the well-known sites as well as hidden gems, and accommodated our asks. The ride was easy and bikes were very comfortable and she kept us very safe roads and paths. In addition, Magda shared her extensive knowledge of the steps/history and she gave us great recommendations to leverage for the rest of our trip. This is a great way to see Athens!

8pm Night Tour

Charles, Aug 2025

Great to see the city at night in all it's illuminated splendour. Managed to get to grips with the various areas of town and gained lots of rooftop bar and restaurant recommendations, which were whatsapp'd at the end. Saw the major sites, learnt a bit more about them and really enjoyed seeing the changing of the guard. A great experience thank you!

Great bike tour

Heather_O, Jun 2025

Polite and knowledgeable guide who goes out of her way to make the experience very enjoyable! Had so much fun!

Go on the 7am tour

Lyndon_R, Jun 2025

I’m glad we went on the 7am tour. We avoided the heat, the roads and streets were not busy, and there was only me, my son and the guide, Petros/Peter on the cycle. It was a leisurely, scenic cycle tour with Petros sharing lots of local knowledge and historical facts. Interesting and enjoyable.

One night in Athens

Chandra_H, Jun 2025

We had a fabulous time with Magda on the ride. I was worried knowing how busy Athens is but Magda takes you on a wonderful loop on pavements and bike paths. She is super friendly and fantastic knowledgeable. We only stayed one night in Athens but saw so much on this bike tour. Highly recommend this trip.

Excellent bike tour!

Jenna_G, Jun 2025

Had a great tour with Petros. He was very knowledgable and friendly, and gave us some good recommendations for food/drinks. We got to see many attractions in the 2 hours we were out with some stops along the way. Would highly recommend!

Great bike tour around Athens

Doug_S, May 2025

A good 12 KM ride around the Acropolis with stops in key areas. Afterwards my adults kids and us had a great orientation on where to go for drinks, meals and entertainment.

Great experience, safe cycling

Prasheel_V, Apr 2025

We had a great time with Magda. The cycling route is well curated and safe. Fun tips and food suggestions were the highlight. You cannot go wrong for doing this tour the first thing in Athens.

Family-friendly!

Kathryn_M, Apr 2025

We had a fabulous tour and saw so much! Our group had 4 kids and it was the perfect length and speed for a family looking to explore Athens. Highly recommend.

Magga the owner and guide...

David_L, Apr 2025

Magga the owner and guide did an absolutely spectacular tour explaining all the Athen city attractions in addition to giving the historical background of each location. The route included city streets, bike path and parts of a beautiful city garden. She even sent several dining options in Athens and helped us understand the public transit options. I would highly recommend this bike tour.

A definite win!

Jen_Z, Apr 2025

Such a great tour of the key places in Athens! My teen girls absolutely loved this bike tour. It was easy to navigate and had great pacing. Thank you, Magda for such a great adventure and fun facts!

Fun, safe, reasonably...

Raja_M, Mar 2025

Fun, safe, reasonably easy ride. A few small hills that was a challenge for some in our group. Had to walk the bikes through some crowded areas. Otherwise great. Passed by some of the big sites and gave us an idea where we would go for some other tours/visits

Excellent excursion - Highly recommend!

Karen_D, Mar 2025

Magda and her assistant took our group which included children (ages 9 and 10) around the city. They fitted us with good quality bikes and helmets, adjusting for our ages and sizes. Our ride led us to incredible historical places as well as hip areas of cuisine and shopping around the city. They were excellent with the kids, but make sure your kids are confident in their biking skills as there are areas of weaving around crowded areas, downhills, and short gravel patches. This was the highlight of my trip! I fully recommend Magda's tours. I further suggest doing this excursion at the beginning of your trip so you can familiarize yourself with the areas around Athens and the sights you might want to investigate in more depth later. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Exceptional Cycling Tour

Thomas_R, Mar 2025

A most excellent cycling adventure with Magda (she is very patient with our many questions) highly recommended 👍👍👍👍.

Great ride

Suleman_M, Feb 2025

We had a great ride with Marta who has lived in Athens her whole life. Thanks for the experience and extremely helpful tips.

Great tour on bicycle!

Titawaty_B, Dec 2024

Don’t worry that you are not a biker, the last time I rode a bike was over a year ago but I did it and you his is very fun! She makes sure we are safe and follow along the safety guidelines. The stops are great, all of them are beautiful.

Great tour! Great guide!

VictorJohn_V, Nov 2024

Magda is an amazing guide! She is a native Athenian and I felt like she was sharing her city with me with an insider's eye. Athens is such a great city to explore by bike and if you have the chance to ride with Magda - go for it!!

Excellent Bike Tour Guide

melanie_h, Oct 2024

Our tour guide Marta was excellent!!! She was prompt, professional, knowledgeable about the many different sites and historical places. Safety came first as we rode through the streets of Athens and she was very very enthusiastic and friendly. I’d give her more stars if I could.

Fun fun fun!

Snit_B, Sep 2024

The tour was perfect l. I have learned so much about the city while also enjoying the ride. She was patient, kind and great at telling the history of everything we visited.
