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.

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.
