Bike, Sightsee And Taste Combo

This 4-hour combo pairs cycling through Nafplio with sightseeing stops and local tastings. Travelers ride between points of interest, pause to take in the sights and sample local flavors along the way.

Overview

Grecopaths packs cycling, sightseeing and food tasting into a single four-hour loop around Nafplio and its surroundings. You start at a bike store at EO Argous Nafpliou 54, within walking distance of the old town, where you pick your bike and get a helmet before setting off with a tour escort.

The ride stops at many points of interest along the way. Two stand out in the listing: a Byzantine monastery and a series of organic local food tastings spread across three stops. Depending on the season, the group also pauses for time at the beach. A partner of the operator stays on standby nearby in case anything goes wrong on the road.

It runs as a private tour, so only your group takes part with the host. Bike rental, helmets, the escort and all tastings are included; transport to the meeting point, gratuities and alcoholic drinks are not, though wine or beer can be bought at the final tasting stop. Most travellers can participate, and anyone who just wants a bike rental without the guided ride can arrange that separately.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points from the listing are worth knowing before booking this combo.

• Private format. This is a private tour, so only your group participates with the escort. That gives you room to set a pace that works for your party.
• What is included. Bikes, helmets, the tour escort and the food tastings are all covered. If you would prefer an e-bike, the operator has a limited number of two.
• Getting there. Transportation to and from the attractions is not included. The meeting point is the Sellis bike store at EO Argous Nafpliou 54, on walking distance from the old town of Nafplio, and the tour ends back at the same spot.
• Support on the road. A partner of the operator remains on standby nearby during the ride in case of emergency. A bike expert also checks and repairs the bikes after every ride.
• Fitness and mobility. Most travellers can participate, according to the listing. The tour is not wheelchair accessible.
• Extra costs. Transport to and from the meeting point, gratuities and alcoholic drinks are not included. Wine or beer is available at one of the three tasting stops at the end if you want to buy a drink.

Common issues. The tour is not wheelchair accessible, and anyone needing just a bike rental rather than a guided ride can arrange that separately through the operator. E-bikes are limited in number to two. Confirmation is not instant; the listing says it arrives within 48 hours of booking, subject to availability. Changes and cancellations made less than 24 hours before the start time are not accepted and will not be refunded.
