In the center of the city around the Akropolis a huge archaeological park has been built with many paths and pedestrian streets. With a bike, you can relax, enjoy and explore the backstreets of Athens. Using a bike you'll able to reach locations that you can't in other ways and time consuming if you do it on foot. Many more interesting sights can be visited, giving you more time to admire and take pictures of important ancient monuments that are found around Akropolis. « less

We had about 20 people that went on the bike tour in two subgroups. All felt that this was really one of the highest highlights of our day in Athens. It is a great way to get around the city quickly and maximize your time, while really feeling that you are a part of it. Athens is small enough that... More

Mano's as you have read from others was very accommodating and knowledgeable. He was very attentive and even bought us our waters without asking for reimbursement. It is worth the effort to get there: EFFORT - from port if you don't take a taxi (which will cost you more than the bike tour) go to pier 6/7 where the train... More

Christina, thank you very much for your review and detailed information on how people could easily come to the shop from the port. I had a great time with you and I guess the other two couples too. I wish and hope that you'll visit Greece again... More

Our group of seven went on the AMAP bike ride in April. Mano made sure we all had a suitable bike and that we were comfortable for our journey. It was clear from the start that Mano wanted us to have a great time. When we saw delicous looking strawberries at the market he purchased them and then saved them... More

Thought they might be closed New Year's Eve, emailed Manos just 2 weeks in advance. We had a blast the entire time-cracking jokes, posing for pictures, and enjoying our last day of 2012! His carefree nature and witty sense of humor made us feel at ease. He really customized our tour by making sure we visited any places we were... More

A fun way to see Athens. We had been in the city for three days already when we took this tour, so we had already seen the major attractions. But Manos managed to show them to us in a different light and took us to places we had not visited. He´s a funny, easy-going guy who knows a lot about... More

Reasonable price for a beautiful family tour. Owner, Manos was patient, kind and adjusted to the needs of my young son and very tall husband. Thank you for showing us your glorious city. Highly recommend booking with this company!

We had the best time with our tour guide Manos. Manos was very interesting and knowledgeable about the sites. His knowledge of english was very good and he asked us for help on english phrases. The ride was "normal" with hills which made it fun for us. We saw many sites that we had not expected to see in the... More
