Fun and educational tour around Athens. Kostas is an awesome tour guide, very knowledgeable and friendly! He showed us all of the Athens highlights and where to take the coolest photos.

Kostas P. was a delight as a guide, personable and positive-spirited. He provided both insights into the historical Athens but also some. sense of modern Greek society, often in a humorous manner.

Dimitris our guide was fantastic. Weather was more than perfect. We visited a lot of places and the timing was perfect.

We rode with Mr. K who was funny, informative, and safety conscious. We rode on super nice electric bikes that were pedal assist and had excellent disc brakes front and rear. The level of power is adjustable, and if you want more exercise you can pedal on lowest level and break a sweat, or pedal effortlessly up the slight hills encountered on the tour. We had a great time seeing sights and views you probably wouldn’t walk to. Mr. K was born in New York, and spent his first ten years there, so not only can you understand him, but he brings an American sense of humor to the tour that leaves you with memories that make you laugh. Why Mr, K? Cuz his real name has about twelve syllables and he invited us to call him “K”. After the tour, K emailed us our route, great places to go, ways to get the most out of the rest of our trip, and ideas for our next visit to Greece.

We had an absolutely fabulous time on our cycle tour with our guide Dimitris. He clearly loves his job and was the perfect combination of knowledge, fun and entertainment. The 3 hours whizzed by and we thoroughly enjoyed the stories and knowledge he shared with us. Couldn’t recommend more highly. A must on your stay in Athens.

We did the tour with Mr K. He’s a great guide -fun, well informed and very generous with his time and information. Before hand I had some concerns about whether I would be able to manage the tour on a regular bike. Turned out not to be an issue (if this 62 year old can do it, so can you).

Costas did a great job of leading us to different sites in Athens on e-bikes. And he shared his in-depth knowledge of the sites and culture.
