Best Bike Tour - Such a fantastic experience! Demitris was born to be a tour guide! He knows so much about everything Greece. Helpful and kind and entertaining. We were able to get a feel for many neighborhoods in Athens and learned so much. Electric bikes are the way to go too!
Thanks so much and don’t hesitate to book this activity!!

5 stars for Kostas! - I would like to say that unfortunately, I was not able to do the bike tour due to trauma when I had an accident when I was younger. I've tried but Kostas, who was our bike guide tour, was amazing. He tried to help, was very compassionate and was extremely patient. My friend loved the tour with Kostas, he was very knowledgeable, and said he was an awesome guide which I believe it. Therefore, I give 5 stars to Kostas and his team!

Great tour and tour leader - This could not have been a better experience. Dimitrius was by far the best bike tour leader I have ever in any city I have visited. He mixed joyous enthusiasm with in-depth knowledge throughout our ride. This tour allows you to see areas of Athens you might never otherwise experience. Also the ride is stress free with the e-bike (seems we were going down hill for the majority of the trip anyway) but never were we riding on busy streets. Great stops for photo ops also. Can’t say enough good things about our tour leader and this experience. Will recommend to everyone I know

Favourite experience of our four days in Athens - We had an incredible tour with Kostas, one of the highlights of our 4 days in Athens without a doubt. The e-bikes were in great condition, he made any adjustments needed throughout the tour, and they were a great way to get around the city and see all the sites.
The tour is sensibly laid out, showing you all the sites and also giving you a general idea of the layout of the city. Observatory hill was a highlight for me as we wouldn't have walked up otherwise! Because we were the only people in our group and had spare time, Kostas showed us a bit extra that had come up in conversation and he knew we'd like.
I can't praise Kostas highly enough, he was an absolute joy to be shown around by - informative and hilarious in equal measure, and giving you a real insight into the day-to-day lives of Greek people. It was particularly fascinating hearing about army service and the realities of being chosen for a ceremonial guard (he had friends who were). He also took photos of us at multiple different sites which is great for people like us who forget to take them!
