Due to the size of our e-bikes, we ask that all participants be at least 12 years old and a minimum height of 4'9" (150cm). If your child is borderline, we encourage you to contact us ahead of time to determine the child's riding ability. We want everyone to have fun and be safe on our tours!
Our electric bikes are pedal-assist bicycles, meaning that the rider must first pedal in order for the battery assistance to kick in. These bikes essentially amplify one's ability to pedal. These bikes are different to throttle bikes which can be used without pedaling, and are more similar to mopeds or electric scooters. Our pedal-assist bikes are great for those new to e-bikes as the level of assistance can be changed throughout the tour. Rest assured that we will give a brief tutorial on the bikes before beginning the tour!
Yes, we ask that all guests on our Athens Electric Bike Tour wear a helmet, and these are provided free of charge.
This tour is around 3 hours and covers approximately 5.6 miles/9 kilometers.
Although we will see most of the main sites of Athens including the Acropolis, Hadrian's Arch, the Roman Agora and more, we will unfortunately not have time to enter any of the monuments. This tour is designed to provide you with the history and basic overview of Athens so that you can return to the sites that interest you most. Our guides are more than happy to give you information on how to get the most out of your stay in beautiful Athens.
We include the bike, helmet (optional), expert local guide, and plenty of information about Athens!
