Customer Reviews
Was a great experience! Would do again, it was a great adventure seeing parts of the city in a faster and easy manner than walking. Even though though it was a warm day riding the bike made it seem cooler with the breeze! Tour guide was very knowledgeable! Great way to spend 3 hours.
Great way to see Athens and other ways that you cannot see from a tour bus or just walking around yourself. Tour guide was very knowledgeable very pleasant and did an excellent job on explaining all the history of the sites. The bikes were easy to maneuver and would do it again in a heartbeat.
