Had a great experience with Dimitris, learning more about the city of Athens. The insider tips from Dimitris helped us with rest of our trip. F-harrys-toe Dimitris ;-)

Great way to see Athens, it’s a big place so it was really helpful to know where all the areas to shop and eat were. Very informative and lots of fun, I’m not a big bike rider but found it easy. Reini was fantastic, super enthusiastic, informative and lots of fun. We even received an email after the tour with restaurant recommendations and places to go, thought this was a really nice thing to do

Our family of 5 had a great bike tour with Marios! Our youngest (9) wasn’t tall enough for an e-bike so Marios kept an extra close eye on her on her regular bike while all others were on e-bikes. Marios was warm, funny and had such an easy presence. We really enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Athens!

Karolis is the most exciting bike guide you can ever find anywhere! He's so smart and anthusiast with his telling and also the path he's been studying. You can discover many many things about Athens and see different districts in a few hours. He's so accurate in explaining when and how to cycle. Book this experience and you won' repent!

This was the perfect way to see everything in Athens when you’re just there for a short visit. Alex was such a great tour guide. Not only in the tour, but he made some great recommendations for dinners that were fantastic. A must do tour!

This was an enjoyable ride around town. Some of the alleys and business areas were quite congested and kept everyone on their toes so as not it collide with pedestrian. If you have the extra time it is worth the time but I wouldn’t make it a ‘must do’ tour. Our guide was great but the tour was average.
