This is a great way to see the Ancient parts of the City and to get an overview. Vana was a great guide and host. Would recommend to all inquisitive travellers.
Great views of the Acropolis and local ruins. The cobblestones are a little rough but its worth the view. Great way to get around especially while it is crowded. Segways are a fun way to tour.
The Segway tour of ancient Athens was a fantastic way to have an overview of the area without having to hike up and down all of the hills. Our guide was very knowledgable and gave us opportunities to stop for a longer visit as some of the sites. We did this tour on our first day in Athens and it was the perfect way to help us get our bearings in a new city.
Amazing! Vana our guide was so brilliant! This is the best way to see Athens ! You get a tour of the big sites. We did a 3 hour private tour and was so great. Vana was very knowledgeable and was a really talented guide - we only had a day as we were on a cruise and this was great - really made me want to go back to Athens.
Demi was incredible, gave us such an amazing tour and made in Athens so much more special! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn some history and have fun :)
Great way to see Athens but a bit freaky controlling the Segway in big crowds.Please make sure you wear a helmet.
A great way to see Athens. Our guide made sure we were all safe and able then we set off to see the sights. He was knowledgeable and fun and showed us sights we wouldn’t have found on our own. The Segway was good fun and saved our legs from walking!
Great tour, great guide and loved the Segways. Easy and fun to ride. Can’t wait to do another Segway tour on our next holiday.
Give it a go, whatever your age or experience! Second time I've used a segway, aged 61. First time for my granddaughter, aged 14. We both loved it. Demie and Sergio were great guides, they gave us a lot of interesting facts, took us to out of the way places and the 2 hours just whizzed by!
Loved this tour. I’ve done a few Segway tours and this is a great way to see a lot of the city in a condensed time. Was particularly enjoyable whizzing past people doing the long walk up to the base of the Acropolis — although visiting that has to be done as a separate trip. We did several stops for the guide to give us some history which weren’t too long but enough to take a break and grab some water. The guide was great, very friendly and made sure we were comfortable.
