Really amazing day out with Sapfo who was so easy going, fun and very informative. Was very lucky to have Sapfo as my guide and will definitely book in again next time I am in Greece. Cycling around the historic areas, out through suburbs and along the coast was so much fun. Definitely will remember so much of what Sapfo was telling me about the history and culture today of Greece, also lots of great tips for future travel. Very comfortable bike and easy to arrange this tour.

It was an amazing experience cycling around Athens: our tour guide Danae was not only very knowledgeable about the history of the sights we passed, but she was very flexible about allowing us to stop to take pictures and allowing us a closer look at interesting things close to, but slightly off course. This was a fantastic day that won’t be forgotten in a hurry and worth every penny - will definitely recommend to friends and family!

We just got back from our vacation in Greece and one of the best parts was our private bike tour with Danae Balanani. She took us on easy bike paths from the center of the city out to coastal Athens where we had a chance to have coffee at the beach and wade in the Aegean Sea. We biked through historic neighborhoods and tasted Greek food along the way. What a great way to see Athens!
