Tigre Bike & Kayak Adventure
A Full-Day Escape Into Nature, History & River Life

 

Immerse Yourself in a One-of-a-Kind River Ecosystem
A private journey through green trails, aristocratic towns, and hidden islands.

 

ONLY PRIVATE TOUR

 

What Is It?

This full-day private adventure blends the best of land and water as you explore Northern Buenos Aires by bike and kayak. You’ll pedal along elegant tree-lined paths, pass historic mansions and cobblestone streets, then head deep into the lush Paraná Delta—one of the world’s only river deltas without tides.

We’ll kayak through peaceful channels, land on a hidden island, and enjoy a traditional Argentine asado (BBQ) surrounded by nature. This tour is both relaxing and adventurous—designed for travelers who want a unique, personal experience far from the crowds.

 

Tour Highlights

  • Start early biking through San Telmo
  • Take a scenic train ride to the northern suburbs or pedal all the way out – you choose.
  • Visit San Isidro’s historic cathedral & sip mate like a local
  • Explore a preserved 1800s aristocratic home
  • Enter the Paraná Delta, a true ecological treasure
  • Kayak along peaceful waterways through the “Silver River”
  • Swim, relax, and enjoy a gourmet Argentine BBQ on an island
  • Get lost in the sounds and colors of Delta nature

 

Why Choose This Experience?

This is our most immersive and exclusive adventure—designed for curious, active travelers who want to truly disconnect. You won’t find this combination of bike, train, kayak, and asado anywhere else in Buenos Aires. That’s not marketing fluff—no one else offers this.

At Biking Buenos Aires, we’re proud to guide small private groups through authentic, lesser-known parts of the city and its surrounding natural gems. On this tour, you’ll feel like a local explorer, not a tourist.

  • 🌿 Connect with nature just outside the city
  • 🚲 Small private groups only (max flexibility + personal feel)
  • 🧭 Off the beaten path: aristocratic homes, hidden islands, real mate culture
  • 🔥 Gourmet Argentine asado prepared on the island
  • 💧 Swim, kayak, relax—it’s your day, your pace
  • 💬 Warm, local guides who adapt to your interests

 

Who Is This Experience For?

  • Active travelers looking for an authentic local adventure
  • Nature lovers who want to see more than the city center
  • Couples, small groups, or families with older kids (12+)
  • Anyone seeking a mix of light sport, food, and relaxation in one day

A Terrific Tour

Really fun and full day with Ray (the Kiwi). The cycling was safe and we seemed to have gone everywhere in BA. Ray knows the area and streets very well. During it I learnt how to make Mate and some biscuits (yummy). After we paddled kayak along the river and stopped for a huge lunch. I loved these activities and had a really great time with lots of laughter. A must do in BA.

Best way to see Buenos Aires with these guys!

I went with Biking on three trips which made my trip to BA to a success, and mostly because of the guides, Ray, Ricardo and Cole. They were so knowledgeable on BA culture and showed me the mate ritual, where to eat good lunch and ice cream and shared even more tips on email afterwards. We had good talks on the bike, some good laughs and I can not praise them enough for their good company, flexibility, friendly attitude and just being good people !! The trip to the Delta was an especially good way of getting out of the city for a break. Kayaking on the rivers was wonderfully peaceful. I felt really taken care of all three times, Like we were old friends. The trips can be made by almost anyone, as I think they will adjust to whatever is required. I went on two trips around the city and on the Delta trip- all they can all be highly recommended!

For more active tourists in BA

A very enjoyable and relaxing cycle from BA to Tigre for kayaking - it’s around 30km but if you’ve cycled before it won’t be a problem as it's flat terrain. Kayaking and lunch were great, highly recommend the tour.

Cycling Buenos Aires to Tigre and kayaking in the delta

This full day tour was a highlight of our Buenos Aires visit. Jackson was an excellent guide, knowledgeable and friendly. His guidance cycling through the busy part of the city was very welcome and allowed us to feel safe in the short sections of heavy traffic. Overall the cycling route was very pretty and relaxed, following cycling paths in BA and quiet roads all the way to Tigre. Kayaking in the delta was great and sharing a mate made the experience feel very "Argentinian". We appreciated that Jackson shared lots of details about Buenos Aires and Argentina along the route. I highly recommend this tour for any moderately experienced cyclists.

Would Recommend Biking Buenos Aires

A really good way to see the northern suburbs of Buenos Aires as well as Tigre. A really nice day trip to get out of the city, and the bikes and kayaks were both good. I also did the "Heart of the City" tour which was a lot of fun as well. The Tigre tour is more focused on biking/kayaking and less tour, and both tours I took with the company were very good. A fun way to stay active while traveling while getting to see some places you would never go to otherwise!
