It was my first time renting a motorcycle, and it was amazing. Kostas was very friendly and helpful, even advised on the routes for the trip. All paperwork took no longer than 5 minutes. Highly recommend!

Explore the oldest capital of Europe in style, with a motorcycle hire in Athens. The Greek capital stands as a testament to the classical Hellenic tradition that so much of modern western culture has since been derived from, including several still standing remnants from the ancient era, like the Acropolis and the Ancient Agora. With a scooter hire or quad hire from Riderly, you can explore the city however you like right from the moment that you arrive at Athens International Airport.
From there, you can explore the city’s cafes, the national gardens and see some of the few remaining marble walkways that have survived centuries. Aside from Athens itself, getting your own motorcycle rent makes it a lot easier to explore some of the phenomenal surrounding sites. Visit the ancient home of the oracle at the ruins of Delphi, which still very much feel like a magical site to many.
See the jaw-dropping monasteries of Meteora, standing tall on the plateau overlooking the town. Explore the ruins of the legendary city of Mycenea, which is the spot of one of the oldest known Greek and European civilizations. The coastline, also known as the Coast of Apollo, makes for a phenomenal drive, with gorgeous blue water, ancient temples, and dramatic coastal terrain to explore.
