Explore Athens and its great history by taking part in our guided motorcycle tours. Rent your desired BMW motorcycle and be amazed by our Coastal Motorcycle Tour of the Athenian Riviera. We will meet and greet you in our head offices where you will get acquainted with your BMW rental motorbike. We will do a short briefing on the tour, the itinerary and then we will take off for our Athenian Riviera Tour.

Our first stop of the day will be in Vouliagmeni Lake. The lake is about 50 centimeters above sea level and so it is constantly overflowing and being replenished by the hot springs beneath it. The composition of the lake is brackish and full of minerals. The lake is recognized as a wonder of nature because of its unique appearance and impressive surroundings. After a short break, we will cruise the scenic Athenian Riviera towards the impressive Temple of Poseidon in Cape Sounio, the southernmost point of Attica. A spectacular seaside route full of fantastic landscape and twisty coastal roads. We will have the opportunity to spend some time in a nearby beach where you can enjoy a nice walk, coffee or even a dive in the Aegean Sea before visiting the impressive temple. As with many other monuments and sanctuaries around Greece, historical facts about the Temple of Poseidon in Sounion are intertwined with bits of legend. It is believed that King Aegeus was awaiting his son Theseus return from his expedition in Crete to kill the mighty Minotaur, a creature with the head of a bull and the body of a man. He saw the black sails on the ship and mistakenly thought Theseus had been killed by the beast when in fact, young Theseus was victorious but had forgotten to replace the black sails with white ones, which ultimately led to his father’s death. And so, in commemoration, Aegeus’ name was given to the Aegean Sea.

After a short lunch, we will get on our motorcycles towards the Paiania Cave system also known as “Koutouki”. The cave consists of a single compartment, which is divided into smaller parts by stalagmitic curtains. The whole area is decorated with stalactites, stalagmites, and columns with varying shades and all this creates a magical atmosphere. From here you can enjoy the panoramic view of the plain of Mesogeia.

Finally, we will conclude our motorcycle tour via the aesthetic Hymettus Park. A wonderful mountainous route overseeing the whole of Athens.
