Cannot recommend enough! This ebike tour was a great way to see the highlights of Athens. From the moment we met Kostas at the check-in, he made us feel comfortable and ensured our helmets and bikes fit properly. He was extremely knowledgeable but also made our tour fun and memorable with his personal stories. Thanks Kostas for the laughs and memories!
Good Experience

We had a great time, Athens is a tourist City and we enjoyed seeing sites and doing the touristy thing. We have done biking tours in a few cities while traveling, and my experience wiht this tour was that it was organized and safe. The biking part was very easy with the e-bike - so if it is hot out, this is still an option.
A fun memorable bike tour in Athens

The bike tour through Athens was excellent! We had opted for the bike tour with the Acropolis visit. We began the tour on bikes. While there was some traffic to contend with, for the most part we were able to navigate the area smoothly. We made several stops along the way where the guide shared the layout and history of the city. We were able to cover a lot of ground and see areas of the city that we would have probably missed. After the bike tour was over we returned to the meet-me point where we met the guide that was going to take us through the Acropolis. We walked (a very short distance) over to the Acropolis where we went right in (no waiting in any lines). The guide provided us with earpieces so that we were able to hear clearly. She was very knowledgeable and thorough. She had brought a binder along with pictures of what the Acropolis looked like when it was built - this gave us a good perspective of what it looked like all those years ago. Both segments of the your were outstanding and I would definitely recommend it! Well worth the time and money!
Amazing bike tour with Kostas!

Kostas was amazing! He was informative, funny and made the trip an enjoyable experience. I would absolutely recommend a bike tour with Kostas! We had issues getting to our tour on time due to a taxi strike in the city and Athens by Bike worked with us to still get us on our tour. Thank you!
