Highly Recommend! - Booked this tour with little to no e-bike experience for a cruise stop in Athens. What a great experience! Our guide Harris was great at telling stories and brought the history to life, all while taking us to see the sites, without spending much time in the masses of tourists around the acropolis. This was my way to see Athens! We saw the acropolis, the agora, mars hill, plaza, all while leisurely riding around the city on a bike. So very thankful for this tour. Highly recommend!

Excellent and enjoyable ! - Superb trip and a clever way of seeing Athens - we were met by a driver who took us directly to the bike store to get fitted - bikes were excellent , tour guide was superb , relaxed and informative. Water was useful as well ! At the end we ate Gyros - a small group of 6 made it even more fun. Book with these guys as they are superb and do go the extra mile !

Perfect! - We had a very short stay in Athens, and the electric bike was a wonderful way to make the most of it. Accompaniment in French was a plus. It was very nice, I recommend it to all.

Amazing experience with a wonderful guide! - Amazing experience that couldn't have been better! I booked this ebike tour through a 3rd party as shore excursion while on NCL Breakaway. Someone met us at the port and transported us to the bike shop where we were fitted for our ebikes. Our guide, Danae was wonderful. She was knowledgeable and very patient, waiting for us to fully experience each site. She knew the back streets and made sure we timed our ride to see the changing of the guard a the the presidential mansion. After our tour we were taken to a Gyro shop and fed delicious Gyros with fries. We had a little free time to shop and then were put in a cab back to the ship. I highly recommend this tour to anyone going to Athens.

Exciting, Fun and lovely treats and lunch - We went on a most humurous 4 hour ebike tour in June 2022 around Athens city. Our guide, Konstantinos, was extremely entertaining and extremely informative and knowledgeable.
I was quite nervous at the start as I didn't feel that I was fit enough for a 4 hour bike ride. I was reassured by the solebike instructor as well as Konstantinos, our tour guide.
As we were on a shore excursion from a Norwegian Cruise Ship we were under a lot of pressure to fit everything in and get back to the dock. We need not have been as the taxi driver who picked us up in the morning (and gave us a little tour on the way to the solebike shop, even stopping for a photo opportunity! ), kindly agreed to collect us a bit later than the original arranged time of 14.30 (so that my family had a chance to go to the museum for 1-2 hrs, whilst I went shopping for some handmade goods along the route we had cycled.
All in all it was the best tour of our trip, thanks to our funny guide, Konstantinos! Thank you so much. (Not forgetting the tasty treats/lunch along the way.)
Our 14 year old son had a most enjoyable time!

Awesome Athens! - My husband and I used Solebike for a shore excursion from our Mediterranean cruise. It was so much more than we expected!! The transportation was timely efficient and delivered us right to the front door. The ladies at Solebike were so friendly! We had a wonderful guide, Georgina, who was knowledgeable and fun. This was a personal, insightful tour of Athens. Great job, Solebike! Highly recommended.

Fantastic ebike tour from our cruise port - What a fabulous day we had with Solebike in Athens. It started out by being picked up from the port(coming from a cruise) exactly when they said. We were driven to Solebike. They were very organized, friendly and professional. We were each given, water, a bike, helmet and an audio headset. We had a fantastic and knowledgeable tour guide, Maria Christina. The bicycle was easy to use and the tour was interesting and informative giving us a true feel of the city and the history. We ended our day with an authentic Greek lunch and some time to walking around. Included was transportation back to the port. This excursion exceeded our expectations and we would highly recommend it.

Fun ride - It was a great ride. Ebbed the scenery. The only thing was, it was listed as 6 hour tour, but really was only about 4½. The guides were great, and the sandwich at the end was delicious😊
