This is an authentic cycling half-day tour in Athens, guided by a local. Starting from the historical center of the city, you ride though lovely non touristic neighborhoods of the Greek capital, to exit to the sea.
Small groups. 2 tours per day!
You can choose either a morning (09h30) or an afternoon (17h00) biking tour that starts from the historical center of Athens and leads through authentic peaceful non touristic areas of the city, towards the sea.
