Maria was an amazing guide! She shared her deep knowledge and passion for the city and gave great tips for exploring. The tour pace was perfect, and the electric bikes made everything so easy. Athens by Bike provided great service with friendly staff and well-maintained bikes. Highly recommend this experience and upgrading to the electric bikes.

Christina was really knowledgeable and interesting, it’s a great tour where you get to see a layer of Athens most tourists don’t notice or know about. We loved walking around and hearing about the gods and myths we grew up on and seeing all the places they hide around the city. Super recommended!!

It was the best hike ever due to Natalia from Hellas Tracking. She took us on a walk through times in Athens and to the top of the Lycabettus mountain, where we had the most spectacular view of Athens and Akropolis. Natalia was great company, had great energy and she made our day fantastic 😊

Our tour was amazing and I would highly recommend it! Our guide “K” spoke impeccable English, and was so knowledgeable of the area. Bikes were in great shape, and our guide ensured everyone was comfortable on their bikes. Great value for this tour.

Marios was a fantastic guide and this was a great way to see and explore the history of wonderful Athens. Would highly recommend this trip. Great value for everything you see.
