Itinerary
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 picturesque neighborhood outside the common tourist map. We will share with you stories of the neighborhood while riding in narrow streets that resemble a Cycladic island. About 65 residents live in this Acropolis neighborhood, in a scene that reminds of Mykonos. Narrow streets, white small houses with bougainvillea 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.
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.
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. A REAL SECRET OF ATHENS.
