The 10 Best Segway Tours in Athens, Attica
Once known for smog, traffic and tacky architecture, Athens is a city reformed thanks to fortunes brought by the 2004 Summer Olympics. Spotless parks and streets, an ultra-modern subway, new freeways, an accessible airport and all signs in perfect English make the city easily negotiable. Meriting more than a stopover en route to the islands, sophisticated Athens sites include many pillars of Western history, from the Acropolis to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, as well as treasures in the National Archaeological Museum.

Before the pandemic, my wife and I (normally some friends too) try to squeeze in as many weekend breaks as possible. One of the best ways to see and learn about a city, in our opinion, is a Segway tour. You get the luxury of being able to cover great lengths in a fairly short time, without the sweaty back and painful feet. It was therefore a must for us to do this tour whilst in Athens. We were blessed by the Ancient Greek gods to have stumbled upon Athens City Segway Tours and in particular Chryssiis, our tour guide. She was fun, informative, professional plus her English was near native. Having done multiple city tours by foot and by Segway, this was bar far the best one we had done, largely thanks to Chryssiis. We highly recommend the 3 hour tour as it flew by. There is so much to see and soak in that anything less would be an injustice.

Last Saturday we did the Best of Athen Segway Tour and were so lucky to have a private tour with Vana. She is such a nice guide and showed us a lot of nice and interesting places around the city. It was our first Segway Tour and will definitely not be our last one. It made sooo much fun - we can hardly recommend it.

Do NOT book at the moment. The business is NOT operating currently. We booked a tour yesterday, paid over the Internet, the whole process was still fully functioning, but when we arrived at the site, it was closed and we heard from the shop owner next door that apparently the business has not been operating since Corona started in March. It was very disappointing since we were travelling with teenagers who were very much looking forward to the activity. We are also hoping that we will not end up paying for the booking - here we are still waiting for confirmation from the credit card company. We really do understand how hard it is for businesses at the moment but we do not understand why not take the site down in the meantime so people at least don't book and plan this activity.
