About this activity
Meet your guide in central Athens, then, after a safety briefing, pull on your helmet and hop aboard your bike, which has an electric motor for easier and faster riding. With your guide leading the way, cycle through the lamplit streets at a leisurely pace, allowing you to hear your guide’s commentary and take in the sights.
Soak up the bustling atmosphere as you pedal alongside locals and visitors strolling through the streets. Hear the soothing melodies of street musicians rising in the air and see the Greek capital’s ancient monuments illuminated against the cool, night sky.
Pause by the Hill of the Nymphs and marvel at the Acropolis of Athens, the UNESCO-listed citadel that looms over the city. Catch sight of the Parthenon, a former temple dedicated to the goddess Athena and the Acropolis’ crowning glory.
See, too, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus — a stone theater on the Acropolis’ southwest slope — the impressive Temple of Zeus and the parliament building in Syntagma Square. Other highlights include the Temple of Hephaestus, the Agora of Athens, Panathenaic Stadium (Panathinaiko Stadio) and a ride through Plaka, Athens’ picturesque Old Town.
After approximately two hours, your bike tour concludes back at the original start point.
Please note: A minimum of two people per booking is required.

A great and different way to see Athens - we got to see different attractions that aren't normally covered in tours. The electric bike made it easy to go up hills and wasn't difficult to learn. Our guide was very accommodating and knowledgable and we would totally do it again!
We did the late evening night tour with the electric bike assist. The bikes were pretty fun and easy to operate! The tour guide took us through various key locations, biking through combinations of city streets and large empty roads. We also biked through a mini alley filled with restaurants and bars this was really interesting!. The reason for the 4 stars is due to the English. While the tour was understandable, his English was a bit difficult to follow at points, making it difficult to hear all the stories about the beautiful city.
amazing passionate tour guide. well educated on the history, funny kind!! absolutely breath taking tour!!
I booked this for 2 adults and 2 teenagers, really good idea as a holiday activity. The tour takes you through cobbled pedestrian streets of Athens as well as main roads so helps if you are a little experienced in bike riding. You see the main sights at night, Roman Agora, Ancient Agora, Acropolis, Plaka, Olympic Stadium to name a few. The guide Sotos was really patient and accommodating as one of us was bit of a nervous rider. He had a good sense of humour and we managed to have some interesting chats about Athens on route. The electric bikes can be a little tricky to handle as they can go faster than you expect and some of the streets were very busy with people so some confidence in riding needed. We paid around 32 per person for a 3hr tour, price while not extortionate could be a little cheaper. In all it's something different to do, the kids loved it and you get to see the city lights.
This was the best way to end our two week Mediterranean cruise. The bikes were easy to ride and our guide was very knowledgable and funny. We saw parts of Athens most do not see. Thanks George.
