The e-bike ride was fantastic! Alex was great. We were able to see the highlights of Athens and cover a lot of ground in 2.5 hours. We also booked the Acropolis visit. We didn't realize this was a completely separate guided tour. The Acropolis walking tour left within 3 minutes of completing the biking tour. It took about 2 hours to reach the Parthenon on a 95 degree day. It was incredibly hard and draining. Our guide was good, but I would have rather hiked to the top of the Acropolis at my own pace. I barely made it.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for your honest feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed the e-bike ride and the opportunity to see many highlights of Athens. I apologize for the difficulty you faced during the Acropolis tour, especially in the heat. Your comfort and experience are very important to me, and I appreciate your insights. I hope despite the challenge, you still have wonderful memories of your visit, and I’d be happy to tailor future tours to better suit your preferences. - Alex

"K" on the Ebike tour was great, knowledgeable and really ensured our safety. Was concerned about a tour in the city but was pleasantly surprised how a lot of it was on pedestrian paths. Ana on the Acropolis tour was very fun and also quite knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our day!

This was an ideal way to see many of the sites of Athens. Our guide, Demos, was able to share his passion for history in such a way that it made it real for us. He was the best guide of our month-long travels. The E bikes were easy to ride and took us quickly from one sight the next. Communication from the company was excellent. I would highly recommend this tour.

This is a must see for anyone - walking the steps that was also walked by some of the first great Western thinkers & philosophers was an awesome experience
Excellent guide (Demos) - knowledgeable friendly & fun - willing to talk about anything & everything - very passionate about Greek history.
Seeing these once magnificent structures is a cherished moment
Skipping the line was to go straight in was worth the money
Response from Host, Oct 2025
It’s amazing, isn’t it? Walking in the footsteps of history really brings the city to life. I’m so glad you got to feel that connection — Athens has a way of inspiring!
All the Best- Dimitris

This was an awesome experience and our tour guide, Mr. K, did a wonderful job giving us a great overall tour of Athens. We were able to see a lot more traveling on a bike and he knew the city very well. He was enthusiastic and a lot of fun. I would definitely recommend this tour and tour guide to anyone. Thank you, Mr. K!

Radar_S, Sep 2025
Great tour and the E Bike is a great way to see Athens. Stephanie, our biking guide was amazing, she made sure to engage with everyone and she is great at explaining to many quirks of Athens.
Sopha was a great guide as well and is so animated in telling the history of the Acropolis and The Parthenon. I really enjoyed this tour. I would recommend a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen as the heat can be strong. If you like cold water, like me, I’d also recommend bringing a refillable Yeti with lots of ice and water….water is needed!
Response from Host, Sep 2025

Great experience for our first time visiting Athens, Greece!!! Demos, our guide, was fun, informative, and ensured all were safe and having a good time, giving breaks during tour. He was amazing, explaining local history and customs, giving restaurant recommendations and even taking photos of each group! The other staff were nice, polite and helpful. Bikes were good, having good power riding uphill on some parts of the tour. Note, if you add the Acropolis entry option, we dropped bikes off at shop then walked 3-5 min to Acropolis entrance. The uphill hike to Parthenon was a little challenging but doable in late summer heat (high 80's to low 90's), with our guide finding shade to give historical info, be careful walking on rocks as it can be slippery, good shoes are recommended, but noticed some were wearing sandals (few of them stopped, placing bandaids on blisters). Overall it was a great experience, and our guide, Demos, was awesome! Would suggest wearing a hat, sunscreen, small bag to hold water, or camelbak reservoir.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you so much for your detailed and positive review! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great first experience exploring Athens with Demos and that you appreciated his fun, informative, and attentive guidance. It's wonderful to know that the bikes, staff, and local recommendations met your expectations, and we appreciate your helpful tips for future guests, especially regarding the Acropolis walk and safety precautions. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're glad you enjoyed your adventure—Demos will be happy to hear he made such a positive impact. We hope to host you again for more memorable experiences in Athens!
Justin_F, Aug 2025
Two great activities in one!
Stephanie was amazing on the bicycles and it wasn’t too difficult for either the kids or their 50 year-old parents. Wonderful way to see Athens.
Anna was a fabulous tour guide at the Acropolis. Her story telling and knowledge kept it fun for our whole group. She knew how to pace things making the hike up on the hot day manageable while bringing the history of the areas to life.
Would recommend this tour (really pair of tours) 100%.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed both the bicycle tour and the Acropolis experience, and that Anna's storytelling made the history come alive for everyone. It was a pleasure to be part of your Athens adventure, and I truly appreciate your recommendation. Hope to see you all again on future tours! - Stephanie

Five stars! The bikes were in great condition and made it much easier to handle the hills around Athens. Demos was personable, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about history. He kept the group together, timed our ride perfectly to catch the changing of the guards at the Presidential Mansion, and then led us on an engaging tour up to the Acropolis. His storytelling made the ancient sites come alive, and he even took great photos for us at the best spots. Highly recommend this tour—and Demos as your guide!

Due to problems with the cruise port our boat got in later than planned so we weren’t able to do the bike part of the tour. But we were still able to do the tour of the Acropolis and it was incredible! Our tour guide Demos was seriously the best tour guide we’ve ever had and we have done many tours through Viator. He was so knowledgeable and made it so fun and enjoyable! He was passionate about everything he shared and felt like a friend at the end of the tour. He gave us a great recommendation for some Greek food that we absolutely loved! Terrific experience with this tour group!
Response from Host, Jun 2025

The acropolis tour is incredible and really worth it to really appreciate the acropolis and its history.
The bike tour is not worth it. It was quite limited information if you want more historical context
Response from Host, May 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're glad you enjoyed the Acropolis part of your tour and that you got to learn a lot about ancient and modern Athens. We'd like to clarify that the bike tour we offer is not a traditional historical tour, but rather a leisurely ride designed to give participants an opportunity to explore the city's surroundings and take in the sights through a different perspective. While we do pass by many historical landmarks, our focus is on providing a unique and enjoyable experience rather than in-depth historical explanations. We hope you still had a great time and appreciated the opportunity to see Athens from a new angle! Best wishes.
Philip_B, May 2025
Very nice with knowledgeable guides. Would do this again! Just be careful as the streets are narrow with alot of slippery marble.
Response from Host, May 2025
Thank you for your kind words and feedback! We're delighted you enjoyed the experience with our knowledgeable guides. Your safety is our top priority, so we appreciate your caution regarding the narrow, slippery streets. We look forward to welcoming you back for another great adventure!

We had a great time exploring Athens city highlights during our first ever visit to Greece !!! Our tour guide, Dimitris, was very entertaining and very knowledgeable of the city! Was never a dull moment with his guidance! What better way than to bike thru-out the city! Easier, faster, more to see ! Bikes were very maintained, safe- was never pressured with time nor speed. Total relaxation and soaked up new knowledge of Athens! Would definitely recommend this tour and would be the best experience if Dimitris was your tour guide! Should def make a request for him!
Response from Host, Feb 2025
You are so right about cycling in the city! There is no better way to discover Athens.
Thank you very much for your kind words!
It was great having you on board.
All the best - Dimitris
