The tour with Stavros was the best way to see Athens! - I’ve no hesitation in recommending Flat tyres! Very knowledgeable guide, good well maintained bikes and a really interesting tour!

Go cycling with Stavors from Flat tyres to get to know the city! - Stavors is a knowledgeable, kind, and know-it-all about Athens.
It's nice to go around town on his good bikes under his inspiring guidance!
He knows exactly how to explain to you in a nice way about ancient and interesting Athens, very valuable. Recommend that anyone visiting Athens do their tour!

Great tour of Athens - Stavros was fantastic - he showed us around Athens and explained all the history at each stop!
We had a small group which made it even more personable! Would highly recommend this tour as a great way to see the highlights of the city.

Best way to appreciate Athens - Excellent orientation to the city sights, safe riding, and provided interesting background to the historical development of Athens. Stavros was knowledgeable and personable. His directions while riding were excellent, I felt safe in every way navigating foot traffic, city traffic, and a few small hills. His in-depth knowledge at each stop sorted out the ancient history of the ruins to make them memorable and also were insightful in the context of the city's history. This was a great tour of Athens due in large part to the excellent guide. A must for every first time visitor.

Perfect introduction to the city - It's a perfect way to get to introduce to the city!!! You visit many places in Athens (it's much better than on foot or by car) get to know the city and also get a lot of tips for the stay. And Stavros is a very knowledgeable person and there is a lot of topics one can discuss with him!!

The perfect way to get to know Athens - The tour was great! Stavros, the guide was very nice and very informative. Riding through the historical center was the perfect way to get to know the city. Our only regret is that we took the tour on our last day- I would highly recommend taking it on your first day as it is a wonderful way to get an idea of what the main attractions of the city are.

Brilliance by Biking - If you want a perfect introduction to Athens, outdoors on a bike, Stavros is your person. Extremely passionate about the city, the people, the country and riding bikes. Really enjoyed sharing time with Stavros riding through the city. In addition, they also have great quality bikes. Would thoroughly recommend. Don't change a thing Stavros & keep going.

Don't be bossy and do what you promised. - It was fun riding an electric car for the first time. The attraction was arranged reasonably, the guide was warm, just a little bit of dictating, which made me uncomfortable. Promised to send an email with travel information, too.
It's mostly a stone-paved road, and the bike is a bit strong.
