5.00We couldn't of picked a better bike tour. Informative and fun. Information before and after was great, bikes were so nice to ride and our wonderful guide got to know us and showed us things he felt would interest us. It gave us a better understanding of Athens history and culture. Highly recommend to any one.

5.00I did the bike tour of Athens in January and as such, was the only participant which meant a more personal experience. Kostas was a personable guide who knew the city well. He even added an additional stop as we had some time left. Thanks Kostas!

5.00We did the bike tour with Active Athens Holidays as a family with two teens (13 and 15) and had such a great experience. Til and Andreas were incredibly accommodating, super knowledgeable, and just genuinely lovely people. They made the three hours really entertaining and kept everyone engaged the whole time. A perfect way to explore the city and learn along the way. Thanks again from the Watts and Luff family. Wheely on!

5.00Our tour guide was Andrew. He always made sure we were entertained, but more importantly, that we were safe. Instructions were clear, and whenever we stopped, before we began riding again, he would warn us what the next riding portion would be like (crowded; uphill; downhill...)
Great e bike tour - chilled but we covered a lot!

5.00We had a great time exploring Athens, finding areas we wouldn’t have found on our own and covering more ground than we could have done only on foot. We were lucky enough to end up with a private tour, just the four of us, so could see a lot in our 3 hours. We had some fabulous e-bikes that made the ride very chilled and our 11 year old was able to join us on a good mountain bike with suspension to help with pavements (some tours do not allow 11 year olds). Our guide Andreas and his colleague Niko were knowledgeable and patient and we enjoyed a great coffee stop with a fabulous view of the Acropolis. We went back to a few of the things we had seen on our next day. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Brilliant day out with Kostas, thank you!

5.00Thank you so much Rafaella for being so organised, notifying me of the booking and timings over WhatsApp. And thank you to Kostas for a brilliant day out on the bikes, we had so much fun learning about the city and the history of Athens. We really appreciate your tips and recommendations whilst visiting Greece. It has been the highlight of our weekend here. Take care, Charlotte
Biking in Athens was a highlight of my visit!

5.00Till, my leader was very knowledgeable and fun! The tour meandered through a mostly flat area in the heart of Athens, with stops at the historical sites. Till had recently finished his masters in Balkan Studies, which includes archeology and history, so he was extremely knowledgeable. His English was flawless because of his time in the U.S. as an exchange student. He also speaks German and French fluently! The electric bike worked flawlessly. We had a fun coffee stop and Till treated me to a chocolate covered waffle. Delicious! Highly recommend this tour.
Beautiful discovery of Athens by bike

5.00We were accompanied by the very friendly Nina on our tour. Nina knows her subject well it was a very pleasant outing and rich in descriptions. We enjoyed very good mountain bikes. Athens goes up and down! Electric assistance would have been a plus 🙂we had not taken the option. But it's completely manageable without it.
