Electric Bike Tour of Athens
Athens reveals its best secrets when you explore it on two wheels. This guided electric bike tour covers the city's major landmarks and hidden corners without the exhaustion of walking for hours. Starting in the charming Plaka neighbourhood, you'll pedal through ancient sites, peaceful gardens, and neoclassical districts that showcase 2,500 years of history.
Your route takes you past the National Observatory for stunning Acropolis views, through the ancient cemetery of Kerameikos, and into the lively Thission area. You'll cycle by the Ancient Greek Agora, Roman Agora, and Athens City Cathedral before reaching the peaceful National Gardens. The tour concludes at the impressive Temple of Olympian Zeus and Hadrian's Arch, giving you another perfect photo opportunity of the Acropolis rising above the city.
The pedal-assisted bikes make this tour suitable for all fitness levels, and your guide shares stories about both famous monuments and everyday Athenian life. You'll receive local recommendations for restaurants and attractions to visit later during your stay.
