We had an awesome three hour tour of Athens with Mr. K. The bikes were easy to use and Mr. K did an amazing job, taking us throughout the entire city and explaining the areas that we were going through. Also gave a history of the region as we toward through it. Some of the areas were crowded, but he did a great job keeping us together and making sure that we were safe at all times. There are some slight inclines involved, but the peddling was not too difficult at any time. I recommend doing this tour in the beginning of your trip to Athens, as he points out areas that you might want to explore and gives you great advice on restaurants and other areas to visit. It gives you a great layout of the city. I really enjoyed him taking us to areas that we may never would have known to visit. Bring water, although there is ample opportunity to buy water along the ride. Highly recommend this trip and do it early on.

Stephanie was a wonderful guide who confidently led our group to many wonderful sights around Athens. Her stories and historical knowledge added to the experience. The e-bikes were fun and easy to ride. I highly recommend this tour.

I came in a day early before I joined my Dalmatian Coast tour and scheduled a Viator bike tour in Athens. It was really enjoyable! The tour guide was so much fun and he also gave us historical explanations of the key scenic spots we were visiting. I'm never disappointed in my Viator tours and have made it a tradition to schedule a bike tour when I first arrive in a new international city.

Easy bike tour even if you haven’t ridden in a while. Our guide, Dimiritis, was very informative and fun. He gave recommendations to anyone on the tour that wanted them. We saw lots of great places and really enjoyed our time.

Don’t hesitate to book this bike tour! Alex and Costos are phenomenal! Both were so funny, patient and knowledgeable! We took a late afternoon time slot the day we arrived in Athens which worked out perfectly to get a feel for the city to start our visit. Alex and Costos provided great history, tips, neighborhoods to explore and eating spots! The e-bikes were in great shape and easy to ride. The pace was perfect and the guys were very accommodating to our needs. We highly recommend this tour.!

Excellent tour of Athens with Kostas. Has been a highlight of our ten days in Santorini and Athens. Kostas made such a big effort with our Teenagers - and his easy going manner, stories, and humor made the 3 hours fly by. We were worried it might be too hot but Kostas had thought out every shady stopping point and with the breeze it was lovely. We loved the insight into history, culture, mythology and masterclass on how to order gyros and souvlaki. Highly, highly recommend this tour.
