Great evening e-bike tour! - We had a great time seeing Athens by ebike. We were only in Athens for 24 hours and I would highly recommend this tour for covering a lot of historical sites in a few hours. Yota was a great tour guide, she was super knowledgeable and had great recommendations. The bikes were easy to ride and it was fun to get away from the crowds. Note you will see great views of the Acropolis but you do not visit the Acropolis on this tour. We visited the Acropolis earlier in the day and paired with this tour we feel like we got to see everything on our list.

Take this tour! - It was great riding an electric bike and not having to huff and puff. I'm a 66 year old lady and it took me a few minutes to master the bike but I did. As we past the sights George, our guide, gave us lots of interesting information about what we were seeing. Watching the changing of the guard was a highlight. Highly recommend.

Culture and cycling - We had a great time with our Guide Laurence. She made us discover Athens and its history in a very interesting way. Cycling is a really good idea to see a lot of things in 2h30.

A great e-bike tour - George led us around the notable sites of ancient Athens and gave us historical facts of what we were seeing. He was extremely informative not only of the sites but also where to go in the different neighborhoods. His trails were not on busy streets so we always felt safe. His recommendations were spot on. He worked with an assistant who trailed the last biker. My family and I loved this tour.
