About this experience

eBiking Thassos is the ultimate way to experience the hidden and unspoiled part of the island. Personally, the island never ceases to surprise me with every ride.

In this tour, you will pass by 3 typical mountain villages, another 3 beachfront settlements, and the monastery of Panteleimon.

Throughout the tour, you will love the breathtaking scenery, the ever-changing landscape, and the curious goats we will meet along the way.

Above all, you will get to see a different side of Thassos, which will leave you in awe and make you want to come back in no time!
