South City Tour
Soul of Buenos Aires, on two wheels

Discover Buenos Aires through its stories, people, and contrasts.

What is it?

The South City Tour is a 4-hour guided bike tour through the southern neighborhoods of Buenos Aires —
where the city´s soul was born and still thrives. This immersive ride takes you deep into local history,
traditions, and daily life, offering a balanced mix of cultural insight, iconic landmarks, and unexpected
green spaces.

We keep shared departures small — maximum 8 riders — so the experience stays personal. Private tours
are available for any group size, with guides assigned accordingly. From 7 riders — shared or private — a
second guide joins: one leading, one watching the rear. Safe in Buenos Aires traffic, attentive at every
stop.

Available as a shared small-group tour in English, or as a private experience in English, Spanish or
Portuguese (Portuguese subject to availability). Choose your ride: classic city bikes, handcrafted bamboo
bikes, or eBikes — eBike at extra charge — subject to availability, please request at time of booking.

Why Choose This Experience?

At Biking Buenos Aires, we do more than show you the sights — we help you understand the why behind
them. Our guides are passionate locals with deep knowledge of Buenos Aires´ history, culture and daily
life, selected for their ability to turn a bike tour into a real conversation. Over 20 years and 300,000 km
riding these streets, we´ve learned that the best way to understand a city is to live it — not watch it from a
window.

Who Is This Experience For?

For travelers who want to understand Buenos Aires, not just see it. Curious minds, culture lovers, and
anyone who prefers a real conversation over a scripted tour. Whether it´s your first day in the city or
