Awesome and Easy Hike! - George was very nice and patient. He was knowledgeable about Greece and the hike was really lovely. I would highly recommend if you enjoy great views and beautiful sunrises. The hike was also not difficult and was very mild!

Super fun with friends! - GEORGE WAS SO KIND AND THOUGJTFUL AND the first time we couldn’t wake up but he was able to make accommodations, and was so understanding! Wonderful Australian accent and so patient. I was caught up on grabbing a prickly pear and he definitely supported us to have the best experience. Great views!

1st sunrise of Athens in 2026! - I got the chance to view the stunning sunrise of Athens, the first one in 2026, and luckily the weather is great with clear blue sky, go while you can still climb a hill, which is not too difficult but of course need a healthy knee. ;)

A genuinely unique experience.. because noone else does it! - A chance to see an amazing view of the city as the sun rises (or sets). A great way to get outdoors and active* , without it being too time consuming. And most importantly the tour guide is incredibly nice and helpful.. be gives a good history of the city but you can also ask him for recommendations during your stay!

Hike at dawn on Mount Lycabettus. - Fantastic hike early in the morning on Lycabettus Mountain, our guide George was very kind and showed us and explained from above all the beauties of Athens. We witnessed the raising of the flag and from up there a beautiful 360-degree panorama of the city of Athens. A place and a magical moment of dawn to take wonderful photos.

Sunrise in Athen - Hi, the tour guide was really knowledgeable and giving us insight information all throughout the tour. The early wake up can be a little difficult but it was all worth it. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have an epic view of Athens sunrise. Thank you to George again 🙏.
