We had a fantastic experience with Till. He was very knowledgeable, fun and flexible. Navigating the sites on a bike was an awesome way to kick off our trip.
My daughter and I had a fantastic morning cycling with Kostas around Athens. It was a brilliant way to get our bearings around the city and to absorb a lot of information. Particularly perfect for my 13 year old as the cycling aspect is a lot more fun and engaging than just a tour. Thank you
Kostas was awesome with our moody teenager and made it fun for the whole family. Excellent bikes and great information.
Be VERY sure you can ride a bike before booking. It had been a long time for me but I thought the saying “it’s like riding a bike” would prevail. Sadly, after trying and almost hitting a parked car, I thought it best not to take the trip, feeling a bad fall was in my future, I just couldn’t seem to get the hang of it. I will say the first bike they gave me was much too big (I’m 5’2” as I told them previously) and female and the bike was for a male; I couldn’t even get my leg safely over the bar! The next bike was okay for my height but this was the one that I almost took put a parked car. After the tour guide tried several times to reach a supervisor, I told her I didn’t want to hold up the trip any longer for the other customer. I reached out to the company Active Athens and inquired about a refund that morning but didn’t hear back until over 24 hours later. They messaged to offer a wine tasting tour but I informed them the previous day was the only day I did not have plans, I was on a tour and would be on a tour with my group and we were leaving Athens early the next day and again requested a refund. I did not hear anything that day or the next so I messaged again and was finally told no refund. I get that it was mostly my fault for being overly optimistic about bike riding but I was not impressed with this company and wanted to let anyone know who is concerned about whether or not you can do it…think TWICE!! While waiting outside of the office on the day of my ride, there was another company just a few doors down that were setting off on an e-bike tour and they seemed to have it more together. I don’t know their name but the address of this tour company was Tziraion 12, 117 42 and maybe you can use maps to find out the other company’s name.
A great three hours cycling around Athens with our lovely guide Statos. We booked a group tour but there was only 2 of us on the tour so we had our own personal guide. I was a bit nervous to start with about biking the streets of Athens but Stratos soon put us at ease and we managed not to run anyone over or indeed be run over ourselves. A great way to see the city and gain a good insight into its history. Thoroughly recommend. And yes the coffee and chocolate waffles were delicious. Many thanks Stratos for making it so special.
Our guide was well informed but with “a chill vibe.” Excellent knowledge of Greek history and of Athens in particular. While the city is hilly, the e-bike renders the hills irrelevant; that is, not a challenge to navigate..
I had an off-season solo ride led by Renata. She did a great job and was easy to understand. The e-bike offered nice assistance, so this is an effortless ride.
George is an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and made the tour more interesting by explaining the history of the places. The tour itself was very nice as it provides a panoramic overview of the ancient city.
Joanna was fantastic- very informative on the history of Athensand great recommendations on local spots. We would highly recommend this e-bike tour, a highlight of our trip!!
was amazing, George was super sweet and was totally worth it, 100% recommend doing this tour, was the highlight of our trip!
We had a beautiful tour with a e-bike (useful!), Thalis was very nice and knowledgeable. Definitely recommended to discover a little of the city’s history and a good starting point to get your bearings.
Lots of fun and views of the classic sights that you wouldn’t otherwise find on your own. It was an easy ride without too many obstacles considering you were in Athens. Our guide Kostas was really lovely.
We had an absolute wonderful time! We rode our e-bikes through the old parts of Athens and had the most amazing views of the Acropolis ! Our guide Jona was amazing. She is extremely kind and knowledgeable!! We had a blast!! Thank you!!!!
We had an amazing start to our stay in Athens thanks to our guide Loanna. The bikes were stable and smooth, and the tour provided a great overview of the city. It was a cool way to discover Athens, and Loanna was an incredibly knowledgeable guide.
A very enjoyable cycle experiencing some of the main sites around the Acropolis. Our 14 & 15 year old teenagers' favorite activity of our entire holiday!! A great way of orienting yourself if spending a few days in Athens. Would 100% recommend the company. Also, Andy, you were a great guide! Thank you.
Great tour, really good cycle ride around athens, very friendly & knowledgable guide with lots of information , really enjoyed it👍
Andrew did a great job! He had a lot of knowledge about Athens and the historical things we were looking at.
Wonderful experience. If you have trouble with the electric not working out want to stop to take pictures just let them know. A suggestion: might be nice to get those devices for you to talk into and we listen to while we ride to get a little more info about what we are riding through
So much FUN. Great experience. They know what they are doing for sure. I will come back with friends. Small group and very informative.
We had a wonderful time in our bike tour. We are two Couples travelling together and only had the four of us on the tour which was fantastic. The bikes are all in great con’aurions and easy to ride and our tour guide George was fantastic! It’s a great way to see all of the highlights in a single day, very informative and the chocolate waffle was very yummy! We would highly recommend this company and this tour!
We had a great tour with Till- the e-bikes were of high quality & excellently maintained. The route Till took us on was mostly car free. We visited & learned many of Athen’s highlights. Till was knowledgeable & well spoken- he is an excellent guide! We stopped for a taste treat of Freddy cappuccino &a waffle topped with hazelnut chocolate - yum!!! The ebike is a great way to travel especially those who tire easily- you cover a lot of ground with minimum effort. Till added a few thing because our interests & that was much appreciated too. I can highly recommend this company & tour. You’ll want to go back to explore more- but this is a great tour for those who can’t walk far, those with limited time or for those looking for an over view. Thank you
This was the absolute best way to see Athens’ most important places. The crew was hospitable, preparing us for a perfect ride. Throughout the tour, we stopped & learned about historic places, such as the Acropolis, Syntagma Square, etc. We absolutely loved George, our tour guide, he was incredibly knowledgeable! We learned way more than if we’d visited all of these places on our own. George even took time to answer our millions of questions. We learned so much about Athens / Greek history, culture, food, people & more! Oh, and the waffle and espresso, tea, water….. SOOOO GOOD! Highly, highly recommend this e-bike tour!
We had a great guide in Konstantina. She was very friendly and knowledgeable and quite personable which we really enjoyed. The bikes and helmets were in perfect working order and quite fun to ride being a-bikes. Highly recommend this tour or any other they provide.
Great Way to start a tour of Athens. It is an easy ride around Town. Ask for Antonia. Perfect guide.
Great way to see the city. Ebikes easily propel you through the streets. Plenty of time for photos and information about the stops.
Excellent tour, very informative and a great professionalism. Super indicative to everyone, wonderful. Fantastic!!
Die Tour ist super und macht Spaß! Man sieht sehr viel und kriegt einen tollen Überblick und hat Glück weil mit den E-Bikes jeder Hügel leicht zu erklimmen ist! Ich empfehle die Tour für den ersten Tag so weiß man besser was man noch planen will in Athen. Till ist ein super Guide und hat mit seiner freundlichen Art eine super Atmosphäre gebildet und auf alle Gruppenmitglieder geachtet!
