Overview of the city to start our visit - We loved the bike tour. Great way to get an overview of the city. We didn’t travel on busy roads, just crossed one big street twice. The e bikes made the few hills manageable. Great tour leader in Agglos (might be misspelled). We highly recommend it.

Great views of Athens on e-bike - Carlos was our guide. He was very energetic, informative and kind. We had a great experience and saw lots of the downtown areas around the acropolis. It was very relaxing and easy going. It was great to get out and cover a lot of ground, but not having the achy feet and legs afterwards.

Great tour, highly recommend the E-bike tour - Great experience! Beautiful day riding through the heart of Athens, not on busy roads, a couple hills, but nothing we and the e-bikes couldn’t handle. Great views of the Acropolis from a distant and closer and lots of fun history from our excellent tour guide, Agglos. Hope we spelled his name somewhat right.

Easy, Engaging and enjoyable tour! - Fun and highly informative tour of central Athens. Easy biking on almost exclusively pedestrian roads in a manageable sized group, with great stops of interest in history and culture. Loved our guide Karolis, he was very engaging and energetic with fun facts and humor to share. Perfect length too. I recommend highly! Great intro to the historic city including places to eat, drink, dance and shop.

E-biketour, the perfect way to explore Athens - Me and my mom would highly recommend the e-biketour by Athens By Bike! The streets in Athens go up and down so the pedal assistance was very nice at some points!
Our group leader Karolis was very enthousiastic, funny and had a personal interest for everybody in the group. He vividly told stories about the sights we were seeing and you could see the passion he has for bike riding.
The group consisted of 10 people. Which was perfect.
We also got tips and recommendations what to see next in our trip and where to eat.
Thanks for the fun and lovely experience Karolis!

A fantastic day and a memory for life🙂 - A fantastic day with our cycling guide Kali who was enthusiastic and knowledgeable about all that Athens has to offer. We got to see the real Athens in a relaxing and beautiful environment. Definitely the highlight of the trip with my son (even though we made 10 different excursions in Athens and Santorini.
