Great Family Outing - We had an excellent time seeing Heraklion with Alex. We love a bike tour because it keeps our four kids engaged while we are able to learn about a city. We ended up having the tour to ourselves as a family of six and Alex was very accomodating and engaging for our family's pace and interests. We learned about the city, but also just enjoyed out time. Basic bike skills are all that are required for an easy and enjoyable afternoon. Highly recommend.

Amazing time with an amazing host - This trip was my holiday highlight, seeing amazing views and reaching corners of Heraklion that would be difficult to find alone. Also the e bikes are fun and cover the large distances ( and the hills!) so quickly. Alex is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the town and made my trip fun as well. The food tasting and Wine Tasting with views to the sea is the perfect, with time to chat while eating it’s a great way to have a closer experience with locals. With the delicious food included and the personal experience I think this tour is good value and I can’t recommend enough. Many thanks for a great afternoon 😀

Best day in Heraklion - This experience was just extraordinary! The bikes, food, sights, wine, quizzes and all the laughs! Alex is fantastic, funny, kind, generous and always mindful of every single detail. We had been to Crete before and liked the island but after spending this time with Alex in Heraklion we just simply adored it! Thank you Alex for being the absolute best!!! Looking forward to booking our next experience with you!

Just book the tour! - If you’re reading the reviews, stop now and just book this tour! Alex is the most passionate, friendly and informative tour guide I’ve ever had ( I used to work in tourism myself)—you can tell when someone loves what they do and Alex is one of those people. I booked this eco-electric bike tour as a surprise to my mom and it was the best kick off to our mommy/daughter celebration trip! 🎉 If you want to get off the beaten paths, see Heraklion from a proud local’s perspective, and have a ton of fun along the way, THIS IS IT. We had so much fun, we lost track of time! ➕Bonus: Alex knows so many people so if you need any other activities while visiting, he and his family are the folks to go to! Alex, thank you again my friend—you really made our visit special and we are so grateful! Blessings and see you next year! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent tour! - Alex was an amazing host and we spent time to zip around the city! The local food and the wines was unique for us and we surprise how many things we didn't know about the Cretan food and the Cretan wines. Thank you Alex for everything
