You won't regret booking with this business! - Quite simply - there is no better way to see this city! Felix K. with "Athens by Bike" was an incredible tour guide - knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating to all of our needs. We visited on a VERY hot day in July (100 degrees F) and I was so grateful for the breeze created by our e-Bikes and the brief stops in the shade to learn about the historical sites. I recommend this tour stop without hesitation!

Great way to see city highlights - Our family of 6 (4 teens) was lucky enough to have a morning sightseeing tour with Kostas. The electric bikes were wonderful as it was an exceptionally hot day and it made the trip easy for everyone. We have a variety of skill levels at biking but it was pleasant for all—even with the occasional hill! Kostas was super friendly and gave great tips about the city. He even followed up afterwards with more detail. It was a good mix of riding and stopping for breaks to chat or see a famous landmark. Definitely recommend you bring a water bottle, although there are kiosks along the way. Great ride and the tour at the Parthenon was special as well. Great value and fun time in Athens!

Electric bike tour Athens, Acropolis, and Parthenon - Guide “Mr. K” was ecellent organizing and leading group to show us all beautiful historic highlights of Athens! The best guide I’ve ever had honestly! He was very knowledgeable and presented information and details during each stop in a very clear, concise and easy to understand manner. He was engaging, fun, always ensuring group was together, and went above and beyond our expectations by adding many additional travel tips to make our stay in Athens enjoyable. Very cool guy!! Electric bikes were in great shape and easy to use. We enjoyed our tour so much, we booked a second different tour offering when we returned to shop. Overall outstanding experience! Highly recommended!! Thank you!!
