With our sidecar, we will quickly drive through the narrow streets of Plaka, Thisseion, Monastiraki where you can enjoy open-air views of the greatness of the Acropolis. We will pass through beautiful traditional streets where you will have the opportunity to take fantastic pictures and videos. Riding in a vintage sidecar is the most Instagrammable experience offered in Athens. We guarantee that you will have an exciting time while we drive safely through streets that buses and taxis are not able to get through. Come experience Athens in an adventurous and unique way.
Monastiraki is one of the most lively and colorful areas of Athens, where ancient history blends seamlessly with modern city life. Centered around its iconic square, the neighborhood is famous for its bustling flea market, small shops, street vendors, and vibrant atmosphere. Surrounded by landmarks such as the Acropolis, Hadrian’s Library, and the Roman Agora, Monastiraki offers constant movement, energy, and unforgettable views. It’s the perfect place to feel the pulse of Athens and experience the city’s dynamic character in just a short stop.
Thiseio is one of the most vibrant and atmospheric areas of Athens, blending ancient monuments with everyday local life. Home to the remarkably preserved Temple of Hephaestus, the neighborhood offers stunning views of the Acropolis and a relaxed, authentic Athenian vibe. With its pedestrian streets, neoclassical buildings, cafés, and lively squares, Thiseio is perfect for a scenic ride and a short stop to experience the city beyond the tourist crowds. It’s a place where history, culture, and modern Athens come together effortlessly.
Nestled on the slopes of the Acropolis, Anafiotika is one of Athens’ most charming and unexpected neighborhoods. Its whitewashed houses, narrow alleys, and island-style architecture create the feeling of a Cycladic village hidden inside the city. Built by craftsmen from the island of Anafi in the 19th century, Anafiotika offers a peaceful escape from the urban pace, with beautiful views over Athens and a unique atmosphere just steps away from ancient landmarks. A walk through Anafiotika reveals a quieter, more authentic side of Athens that feels timeless and truly special.
Plaka is the oldest and most picturesque neighborhood of Athens, located at the foot of the Acropolis. With its narrow cobblestone streets, neoclassical houses, and colorful balconies, Plaka offers a timeless charm that reflects the city’s long history. Lined with traditional tavernas, small shops, and hidden courtyards, Plaka is perfect for a relaxed stroll and a glimpse into authentic Athenian life. Its unique atmosphere makes it one of the most beloved stops for visitors exploring the historic heart of the city.
Great experience when short on time or the start of your trip. You get to see many top spots in fantastic transportation. The kids loved the side cars and were very safe. Wonderful guides 10/10 would recommend.
This was such a fun and unique experience! Seeing Athens at night from a vintage motorcycle sidecar was amazing. I loved being able to take in the city and the Acropolis without having to spend hours walking around, I truly felt like a queen being chauffeured through Athens! 😂 The one-hour tour was the perfect length and gave me plenty of time to enjoy the sights and take photos and videos without feeling like the experience was dragging on. Dimitri was friendly, personable, and made the experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a fun and different way to experience Athens, I definitely recommend this tour!
Just no expectations!! Let the experience to surprise you. It’s extremely recommendable, all is great, the ride experience, the spots and the driver Andreas the best
This tour was perfect for our Athens arrival day- we knew we would be tired and jet lagged and this was a fun way to see some sights and keep the kids awake. It was also the perfect amount of time and our guides were friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended
Great way to get around Athens and see the city. Dimitrius was great! My daughter and I enjoyed the experience.
We had a great time. My daughter (13) was so excited about the Sidecar. George was sweet and accommodating. I would suggest doing this tour at the start of your time in Athens, to help you familiarize with the area (we did it on the eve of our second day). A few suggestions: the helmets should have microphones so both passengers can hear what the driver is sharing about the different sites. There should be more information given about the different sites. Music for the drive could be nice (if possible). The hour should not include the initial mounting on the bikes, as that takes about 10 minutes (including photos, etc).
Fun way to experience the city. We had teenagers and 75 year old grandma with us. Great way to see the sights without having to walk.
I wish I could give it more stars! So much fun! Stelios was the best driver and guide! He was so nice and full of knowledge!
Dimitris owns the company. There was a problem with Trip Advisor and he corrected it immediately. The night tour was fabulous. He is friendly, knowledgeable, patient and a safe driver. His English is perfect. There are stops for pictures and exploring. I highly recommend this tour.
Fun experience for our son! Thank you!
Dimitri was an excellent tour guide! He was supper friendly, took great pics and well versed about the city of Athens, he was also giving me safety recommendations on places to visit and live (since I am highly considering moving out of the US). Most importantly, he was kind enough to reschedule my ride as the rain would have canceled us but he texted me all afternoon until we found a time that worked for us both. I had a 1230 ride scheduled, which turned into a wonderful 9:00pm night ride. The city looked beautiful all lit up and Dimitri made me feel safe the entire time. He also had blankets to make the ride extra comfortable. Everything was so accommodating I will definitely do this tour again when I come back.
We are four seniors who took this tour this week. It was honestly one of the most fun excursions we have ever done. Dimitri and Nicos were kind, professional and entertaining as well as being excellent drivers. They showed us the main sights of Athens, giving us time to get off and take pictures. The best was Lycabettus hill with its spectacular views of the huge city. It was exhilarating to be on the back of the motorcycle and in the side car on a beautiful warm and sunny afternoon. One of us has mobility issues but he was able to get in and out of the sidecar just fine. We heartily recommend this experience to folks of all ages!
Great experience and a fun way to see all the highlights of Athens. Dimitris was so kind and friendly - would definitely recommend.
Absolutely amazing! Dimitris was the best host, safe rider, knowledgeable and made the short tour so much fun! Riding around Athens was exhilarating, a few stops for photos at some great spots including the highest point in Athens which had breathtaking views. Just book it for something different… and so much fun!
We did our Sidecar tour on Saturday at 2.30pm. There was just ourselves (a couple) and the driver. It was genuinely the best hour/90 minutes to spend motoring around Athens, we traveled to the highest peak of Athens Mount Lycabettus, traveled through the streets of Plaka, to the Panathenaic Stadium, and finally to the grounds of the Acropolis. Got good infor on the ride but to be honest it was peoples reactions and the smiles we received while traveling about was the highlight! Beautiful Athens was alive and well and I would highly recommend this tour, super fun! Thank you.
Sidecar tour was so much fun! Great way to get an overview of Athens. Our guides were so friendly. Highly recommend for a first day in the city to get acquainted.
The host was on time and very accommodating went over and beyond for us the whole experience was amazing
This was the most amazing experience! They take you to all top attractions and seeing the highest point in Athens was so incredible. Highly recommend the motorcycle sidecar experience for anyone wanting to see Athens in this incredible way of getting around Athens. The tour guys(Nikos and George) were so nice and beyond accommodating!!
It was FANTASTIC!!! Make sure you fill in the part related to the pick up point. We goofed up on that, but they found us and took us for a fabulous ride.. They were very accommodating and we’re thinking about doing it again next week with other friends.. very worth it. One of the best tours we’ve ever been on.!!!!!
Friendly private tour of areas we hadn’t been to. Felt safe on our drive . Thoughtful tour guide -Nick, even had waters for us.
I absolutely LOVED my tour!! This was my first time in a sidecar and it was AWESOME!! The whole experience was wonderful. My guide, Stavros, was so amazing!! He was unbelievably knowledgeable, funny, patient, and entertaining. If you're trying to decide on a tour while in Athens...this is DEFINITELY the one!!! It's a 10 out of 10!!
Brilliant trip. Great fun in the sidecar and we got to see some interesting and unusual places. Very friendly and skilled drier. Recommended.

This tour was everything I thought it would be. The guys were knowledgeable and very friendly. It was an awesome experience. Thank you Dimitris.
We had the best time and it was the most fun way to see Athens!!! We really wanted to see the city but were only here for a short while so this tour was PERFECT!!
Demitri is a great guy and riding the bike was a great experience other than seeing the places there
Loved this tour, we had an incredible time and highly recommend everyone experience this excursion. The view from the church was spectacular.
This trip was very fun and exciting . Our tour guide Nikos did a great job and made sure we knew where we were going and what historical landmark we headed to ! My husband and i had a blast as the tour wasnt too long or too short and was timed perfectly . This should be the first thing anyone coming to Athens for the first time should book because it is well worth it.
Amazing experience!!! So much fun! Has a few days solo traveling and decided to do this.. was the best! Great driver and the ride is actually super smooth! Beautiful Brand new side car!! Would recommend to all my friends & family!
This was an excellent tour. It was a cool and different way to see the city. I would definitely recommend.
We had such a great time touring Athens in a Sidecar. The tour exceeded our expectations by far. The views were amazing. Highly recommend this tour to everyone visiting Athens!
The experience was new for me and exciting. Safety measures taken were also great. I could see many places in Athens in few hours. I am not sure of the name of the tour. I guess it was the big tour of Athens. Thank you Dimitri.
It never happened! The side car driver contacted me & said since Monday May 6 was a holiday; he could not do the tour. However Viator sent tickets & communicated that the tour was taking place. Who to believe? The sidecar driver never appeared. We called hom and he said he was sorry...could we do it another day; however we had a private food tour the next day but he had no openings. Then on Wednesday we flew home. The fellow did return our tour payment in the form of a credit to our credit card. Way too 👎 bad that the special tour did not happen...it was a unique way to see the city. I suggest that the Viator office & their tour providers communicate!!!
We hired Hellas Vintage Tours to take us around Athens. Despite it being Easter in Greece and amidst family celebrations, because they had made a previous commitment, they stuck to it and ensured they were able to offer us the much-awaited trip. They arrived at the hotel on time and took us around and showed us all the sites we wanted to see. It was truly an amazing experience, and I would highly recommend this tour.
Seeing Athens by motorcycle was 3-D visual experience with a 360° view Demetrious was wonderful. I highly recommend it.
We experienced a friendly, professional, and safe ride in a vintage motor bike around Athens. Dimirtris was very accommodating when we changed the pick up location for our tour. As we only had 1 day in Athens (we came off a cruise ship) this was an ideal way to see the sights. Our party of 4 thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The sidecar was ideal for my 80 year old Mother, she loved it. Book with confidence, we'd highly recommend.

Taking my 9 year old son on a sidecar tour in Athens was an absolute thrill! The wind in my hair as we cruised past iconic landmarks like the Acropolis and the ancient Agora was an unforgettable experience. Our knowledgeable guide Dimitri shared some stories about the city's history. The personalized attention and unique perspective offered by Dimitri made this tour a highlight of my trip to Greece. I highly recommend this adventure for anyone looking to explore Athens in a fun and memorable way!!
So much fun! Dimitris was great. Our tour was originally scheduled for an afternoon and because the weather looked questionable he offered to reschedule to a better time. My 9 year old daughter LOVED being in the sidecar and now thinks she is cool. Such a great experience.
This experience was unique and fun. A bit scary at the beginning but once we got to the streets of Athens and saw around, it was memorable and fabulous.
Dimitris was an amazing guide. It was a great way to see the city, and take some amazing pictures with the best views. I highly recommend this tour, you will enjoy.
Stravos was so informative and friendly! We had the best time and got to see parts of Greece we didn’t know were there. He let us stop at places to get photos including the highest point in Athens. 10/10 definitely doing again
What an awesome way to see what you would’ve missed. George knew his way around all the side streets. Other bikes and pedestrians were enjoying riding alongside us putting their thumbs up to us 👍👍👍, so thanks once again to George our Guide. George was telling us about all the site (even where the Greek prime-minister lives). It was great fun for us and everyone was smiling and waving at us including the other scooter riders they they seemed to
The guys were so friendly , amazing ride! They took us from the point of Plaka and had so much fun! Stavros and George thanks a bunch!
It was a wild ride 🔥🔥🔥 Great experience ever!!! Hellas vintage tour was the best!!!! Totally recommend!!!
Great experience with our rider George. Professional attitude by all the people. Safe ride in a vintage bike around Athens is the best experience for anyone.
