What a great sunrise hike. George was extremely friendly and accommodating. From pausing when I was slightly out of breath to showing me viewing spots without the tourist hordes, he really went the extra mile to make sure I felt comfortable and got good photo ops. There was also a nice mix of nature, brief history, and city vibes at the hike’s spots, not too much of one over the other. Super chill and everything kept moving at a great pace. 100% worth getting up early for! 😄 Highly recommend George and Ultimate Athens for anyone after a supportive, well-paced, and intimate hike (run by a local too!!!!)
There is something magical and breathtaking when you witness the Acropolis glow under the rising sun. It may sound crazy waking up at 4.30am whilst on holidays, but you will rewarded with this magical view. George is a wonderful and easy going guide who loves this city and is eager to share it. Don't even think about it. Just do it!!
A spectacular experience! Thank you so much to George for the whole experience. We hiked up Mount Lycabettus, the view was beautiful once we reached the top. Thank you so much for recommending that bakery at the end too! If you enjoy walking/hiking and want to see the whole of Athens from the top be sure to book this experience, you won't regret it :)
Exceptional, George showed me places I wouldn't have seen alone! I enjoyed the hike , at impeccable pace and all the explanations! The panorama was incredible! Thanks again, I wish I hadn't done it!
George was very nice and patient. He was knowledgeable about Greece and the hike was really lovely. I would highly recommend if you enjoy great views and beautiful sunrises. The hike was also not difficult and was very mild!
We had an amazing experience with this hike! The view was fantastic and the guide George was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and knowledgeable about Greece. I would definitely recommend!
GEORGE WAS SO KIND AND THOUGJTFUL AND the first time we couldn’t wake up but he was able to make accommodations, and was so understanding! Wonderful Australian accent and so patient. I was caught up on grabbing a prickly pear and he definitely supported us to have the best experience. Great views!
I got the chance to view the stunning sunrise of Athens, the first one in 2026, and luckily the weather is great with clear blue sky, go while you can still climb a hill, which is not too difficult but of course need a healthy knee. ;)
Wonderful experience apart from the touristy activities. Had a glimpse of the beautiful Greek sunrise and the city of Athens from above despite some clouds. George shared some history and facts about the city, he is an amazing guide and recommended💯
A chance to see an amazing view of the city as the sun rises (or sets). A great way to get outdoors and active* , without it being too time consuming. And most importantly the tour guide is incredibly nice and helpful.. be gives a good history of the city but you can also ask him for recommendations during your stay!
