    What you'll see and do

    1. Anafiotika

      Explore with us the hidden neighborhood of Anafiotika. This is the oldest neighborhood of Athens, what was actually a "built over night" neighborhood by its residents, the talented marble restorers of the ancient monument of the Parthenon and the Acropolis. Travel back in time, through the narrow streets that only a motorcycle can pass by. This neighborhood took its name from the island of Anafi. This is a picturisque neighborhood outside the common tourist map. We will share with you stories of the neighborhood while riding in narrow streets that ressemble a cycladic istand. About 65 residents live in this Acropolis neighborhood, in a scene that reminds of Mykonos. Narrow streets, white small houses with bougainvilleas and geraniums give a special color to the area. What the older ones considered a "poor man's paradise" that spoiled the aesthetics of the city today is a romantic spot that only a few are aware of. We will stop for photos.

    2. Plaka

      The neighborhood that surrounds the Acropolis, a region that will turn you back 300 years when modern Athens started being built. We will enjoy the quiet alleys surrounded by traditional buildings & we will pass through Ancient Greek and Roman monuments. You will have the unique opportunity to experience this experience from the safe and comfortable seat of our sidecar. Our drivers are Athenians born and raised here. Plaka has a lots of picturesque and traditional spots for pictures and we will give you the ability to enjoy this unique ride in the pace you will choose. Plaka took its name from its Arvanite colonists during the Turkish occupation and in the Arvanites language it means old city. Today, it is considered a very chic neighborhood with traditional taverns, cafes and stores that are enjoyed by the Athenians and its tourists during the whole year.

    3. Mount Lycabettus

      It will fascinate you in the first moment we will complete the climb with our motorcycle among the pine forest at the Paryfes of the hill. The rock as we call this hill with the magnificent view of all of Athens and the Acropolis took its name from the ancient word Lycava that means annual, a hides at the annual celebration of ancient God. A ONLY HOUSE IN 277 METERS ELIMATER, SUBSTANTIAL, ACCOUNTED BY THE AKROPOLI THAT WILL GIVE YOU UNDERSTANDING THE AKROPOLIS. Amazing location to enjoy the view of the city from other tourists.

    Local tour guide - fabulous Tour!

    Great time - was able to stop and take pics of landmarks. Dimitri was so nice and explained all the sites. Loved seeing Athens with a local to guide us. He was a great driver navigating all the traffic. Neat way to get round.

    Excellent and fun tour of Athens

    Amazing tour, great service. Super friendly and knowledgeable guide. Would highly recommend this experience.

    Susan_M · August 2026

    Hop In. Hold On. See Athens! 🏍️💨

    What a FUN way to see Athens! 🇬🇷🏍️ I ride motorcycles myself, so being chauffeured around in Dimitri’s sidecar was a hilarious change of pace. For once, I got to enjoy the ride, take in the sights, and let someone else worry about the throttle! 😂 plus he was also a great photographer! Bonus 👏😎 Dimitri was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun. Cruising through Athens by motorcycle and sidecar gives you such a different perspective of the city and is definitely more exciting than your typical sightseeing tour. Highly recommend, especially if you love motorcycles… or simply like the idea of sightseeing with a little more horsepower. 😜🏍️🇬🇷 Five stars from this very happy passenger! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Fun and exciting way to see Athens

    Exciting and fun way to see Athens! We were able to climb Lycabettus Hill, walk around the Panathenaic Stadium and tour the Plaka neighborhood. Dimitris and Dimitris were courteous and professional and ensured we had a memorable experience. Highly recommend!

    Could not suggest it more, incredible experience!

    The tour was educational and most importantly fun. We would highly recommend it. A sidecar tour is a great way to experience a city and get a great perspective of things. Our driver Dimitri was friendly, informative and patient. Once you take a sidecar tour you will want to do it in every city you visit.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much

    VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Athens.

    How much does VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus cost?

    +

    Prices start at $235 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Athens usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Athens is not rushed.

    Is VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 76 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Athens, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus?

    +

    Around 27 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Athens can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Athens and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Athens within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Athens?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Athens experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Athens Scenic Bike Tour with Regular or Electric Bike + Acropolis, Athens Small Group E-Bike Tour, Acropolis E-bike Tour With Entrance Tickets. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Athens?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Athens?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Gloves, Helmet; and Guide. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 373 listed pickup locations in and around Athens. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is VIP 90" Private Sidecar Tour of Athens Acropolis & Lycabetus offered in?

    +

    +
