The BEST tour in Athens
alexandria_m
, Nov 2021
Alright so! I would’ve uploaded photos but my phone just doesn’t want to so. But I didn’t get my tour guides name 😩 she had a short haircut But this tour was absolutely AMAZING and not even for its cheaper price but just in general. I have traveled quite a bit and in each place I get a bike tour or just a regular tour and this has been 10/10 the best one I’ve ever gotten. Our tour guide was top tier At her job! You would never guess she does this on a daily because her energy and knowledge was amazing! I loved it! My favorite stop was the Olympic Stadium. Took my breathe away and had me in awe. I would advise to take this tour your very first day in Athens, that way you can get a great overview of the city and enjoy your other days buying tickets to things we stopped at on this tour like tickets to the inside of the stadium or the museums or Acropolis. Oh and not to mention she was amazing at taking pictures too! What more can you ask for out of a tour guide !? Alrighty! I will definitely be back in Greece and I can only hope my future tours will be as great as this one.

Riding in like a white knight....
Maria_M
, Nov 2021
All I can say is PHENOMENAL! Don't think twice, do it! My boyfriend and I did this on our very first day in Athens and it was the best decision we made. Our tour guide, Dimytri, was incredible, knowledgeable, hilarious, personable and fun. If you are thinking "3 hours sounds really long", believe me, it flies by with him! He told us so many interesting stories and tidbits about the city and personalized it so you felt like you were touring with a friend. He made everyone feel at ease and never left anyone behind. One time we got lost and within a minute Dimytri came riding through the trees like a white knight and found us! The tour went at a great pace, if you are nervous about the bikes, book an electric one. It really helps with the pedaling and hills if you're not a fit or experienced biker. Every stop is beautiful and they are all diverse, so you don't feel like you are seeing the same thing over and over. Worth every penny, go ahead and book!

A perfect way to start your vacation in Athens
Christina_K
, Oct 2021
The bikes were in very good condition. The helmets were cleaned before they were given to us. Our guide (Andreas) was great. Really enthusiastic and caring about everyone in the group. The best thing to do as soon as you arrive in the city so you can familiarize yourself with the surroundings and be able to plan the rest of your stay.

Better than we expected

Julio did a great job with our bike tour. It was a small group of only 9 riders, and he took us to new places we hadn't seen, as well as a few we had. The pace was perfect, and the route was relatively easy. Julio had great information and stories along the way. His enthusiasm was contagious. We had a really great time. The process and meetup was easy, and the bikes were in very good condition.

Fun Bike Tour!
Heather_A

Had an awesome tour with Julio! We had many laughs as well as history lessons. Great way to see all the main sights of the city. He took us on side streets, so we didn’t have to worry about biking through traffic, and he even bought us icecream! You can get a regular bike or e-bike. Leave a little extra time to find the shop. Would highly recommend!
