Perfect way to see a lot of BA in a day

What a fabulous day exploring BA on bikes! We started with a very cool mini-tour of the home where the business is located. Then Debi gave us some great information about the artist whose home it is and the unique history around it. From there we were off enjoying the perfect weather and cool breeze! Debi was such a wonderful guide and shared so much with us about the city’s history and traditions, her life growing up in BA, and the beautiful ritual around enjoying matĆ© with the people you care about. Thank you for a lovely day!

Fantastic way to see the city and great guide

An excellent tour and perfect way to see Buenos Aires. We had a seven hour tour, just us two and guide Debi. The pace was perfect, and Debi kept us entertained and was full of knowledge. We learned all about the beautiful city, saw tourist and local neighbourhoods, and had lots of stops and time to learn about what we were seeing. Thank you Debi for a wonderful day. I highly recommend this company and their tours.

Excellent Tour

This was the best experience we had in Buenos Aires. We had Martin as our guide and he took tremendous care to ensure we got to see everything that we wanted and to take the time to get to know us and cater the tour to what he thought would interest us. Can't recommend this tour enough.

Great way to see the city and Tigre

What a tremendous way to see Buenos Aires! On a sparkling summers day we rode north through the parks to Tigres , stopping for a coffee at Havana en route. Raymond was a terrific guide. Beyond being a movie actor ( seriously) he is an accomplished cyclist and Kayaker , and has outstanding knowledge of the city and its landmarks. The lunch venue was Tigre lunch ā€œclubā€ , with a large private beach and amazing food cooked over charcoal. Allow at least 9 hours for the round trip - we even came back from Tigre by train

Lovely day, tasty lunch, and overall great experience.

Raymond did an excellent job of showing us the sights and providing us with historical and other details about the areas we passed through. Saw some lovely sights that we never would have seen if not on a bike. First time on E bikes and they were easy to adjust to. Due to river conditions we were unable to do the kayak portion of the trip, but did have a delicious lunch at a restaurant on the river. Logistics could have been better as we had to wait over an hour for a boat to pick us up from the restaurant. It was a pleasant spot so not a problem for us. Also, as it was a holiday, the trains were not running so we biked back a good part of the way and ubered from there. Would recommend this company as I believe the issues we encountered were probably an isolated incident.

Solo private tour

A wonderful afternoon biking with guide Patricio, who is very knowledgeable and shared history of this amazing city with passion. Great English speaking, a fun and relaxed tour. It was really nice to see the parks and other neighbourhoods. Recommended!

So fun, we signed up for another bike tour!

We had such a great day with Jackson on our private tour, with just the 5 of us! He’s knowledgeable about local history and kept us all engaged during the beautiful ride. It’s a perfect way to see the city at an ideal pace. Lunch on the river was relaxed and delicious! Amazing activity for families. Worth every peso.

Great experience – opened up my eyes.

My wife and I went on the pizza tour with Jackson. It was amazing. It really opened my eyes up to what kind of pizza BA had to offer. We went to a couple places we'd never have found on our own. We went and I greatly enjoyed it. We had a cruise and a couple weeks later we were back and I felt able to go and get us some pizza. I'm very happy we went on the tour
