Super easy with the e-bikes. Very informative. Saw many areas of the Athens center city. 2 of us asked the host to guide us to some less obvious attractions; which he gladly did.

Kostas was our tour guide today, he was very attentive and accommodating to the best of his abilities. There was 3 in our family, 5 all together in the tour. He took us all around, he is very knowledgeable and makes sure he is constantly interacting with each individual and as a group. He took us to many photo ops. And with each stop we were given history. It was awesome definitely recommend.

Dmitiri was the one who took us on the cycle tour around the city. Ask for best local eatery suggestions. The one he gave was fantastic. He was very funny and knowledgeable. A defenitely recommended activity.

We got to see all of our top picks in Athens on our 3-hour tour. Alex, our guide, was impressively knowledgeable, not to mention a hoot! This is definitely the best way to get the highlights of Athens in a quicker way than walking and a more intimate way than the hop on/hop off bus. We were able to return the following day to the places we wanted to see the most.

The bike tour was perfect. He took us to all of the places that we would want to see in the city and was a great overview. He also catered to all types of people that were in our group.

What a fun experience with such a cool, personable, and knowledgeable guide who made the whole experience an adventure! We were able to see the best part of Athens with a local that was able to answer questions and show us some cool parts of Athens. The tips he gave us were priceless!! So be sure when you book the tour ask for Kostas Poulopoulos - well worth the money and so worth the time!

Fantastic experience with a knowledgeable fun local- who not only gave great suggestions and tips but was able to show us what Athens was all about in a fun e-bike trip. We even know a little Greek to offer the locals! Great for adults and teens - fantastic views of the city and great pictures we were able to get!! Thank you Kostas Poulopoulos for a memorable bike ride!! Definitely ask for this guide you won’t regret it.

Highly recommend!!! The whole experience was easy from booking to showing up for the tour. Everyone was friendly and professional. Felt very comfortable and safe throughout the whole ride. Very informative and a great way to see a lot of Athens. Kostas was a great guide! Best tour we have ever done. E Bike way great for a person like me that sits at a desk all day. My regular bicycle at home might have to be traded in for an e bike.

We were only in Athens for a short time, and this tour was the perfect way to explore the city and cover far more ground than we could have on foot. Our guide, Kostas, was fantastic - friendly, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing great stories and fun facts throughout the ride. I’d highly recommend booking with Athens by Bike. It was worth every penny!
