Our guide, Mr. K, was great! He gave just enough information for us to know what we were seeing without boring us with too many details. This is a bike tour and meant to keep moving, not a deep dive into a history lesson!
Excellent ride. Safety in mind. All the highlights of Greece with recommendations after. 5 stars to Aglio! Our. Group was age 20-70!
The E-bike ride was really well organised, very informative and included great sights (the Acropolis, the Parthenon, the Traditional Guards) from uncrowded positions. The bikes were great all worked well. We rode as a loose group but stopped often to re-group and take about sights and points of interest. Our guide Yannis was v informative and fun and our time around Athens flew by. Highly recommend Athens by Bike.
I'm glad you had fun and that the time flew by. Hope to see you again on a future ride! Yiannis
My family and I took an electric bike tour with Kostas Poulopoulos. We all had a great time. Kostas was very knowledgeable and really gave us a wonderful view of the beautiful city of Athens. Also he is a genuinely nice guy.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was a real pleasure meeting you and your family and showing you around Athens!! Kostas
We had an awesome experience with our tour guide, Stephanie. She was fun, personable, and shared lots of information about Greek history and culture with our group. Stephanie also went out of her way to make each member of our group feel comfortable on the bikes. In addition, she provided great recommendations for restaurants, entertainment, and shopping. Stephanie gets a 5 star rating for her fantastic Greek hospitality. We highly recommend her and Athens by Bike for future trips!

Thank you for the recommendation, and I hope to see you again on another adventure in the future. Safe travels! Karolis
We loved our biking tour of Athens with tour guide Kostas! He is an incredible, funny guide. He brought us up Phillopappou hill to the National Observatory for an amazing view of the Acropolis, around the streets of Plaka & Psirri, the original Olympic stadium and to the Presidential Mansion to watch the changing of the guard ceremony. The e-bikes were easy to use and the staff was very helpful in finding comfy bikes & helmets. We did a walking tour the day prior and it was fun to see some repeat sites and some new ones. The company also provided a list of recommended restaurants, dessert shops, sites and attractions for the rest of our stay in Athens.
Thank you so much for the kind words! It was a pleasure showing you around Athens, and I'm thrilled you enjoyed the ride, the views, and the neighborhoods we explored together!! Kostas
We were taken through Athens by Carlios and shown all the highlights and given a great history of Athens. The e-bikes were great and very easy to get around on.
Thank you for your lovely feedback.Hope to see you again on another ride!! Karolis
Recommended and so nice and pleasant to get around by bike. And this way to see places where there are not so many tourists. The route is doable (even if you don't cycle often). Karolis was a great guide, he paid close attention to everyone gave clear explanation👍🏼
Thanks for joining the tour, and I hope to see you again in the future! Karolis
