South City Tour
Soul of Buenos Aires

 

Make Sense of This Beautiful Chaos
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.

 

Tour Highlights

  • Start your journey at one of the city’s oldest historic buildings in San Telmo
  • Choose your perfect ride—maybe even a handcrafted bamboo bike
  • Step back in time to Buenos Aires’ golden age
  • Soak up the passion of Boca Juniors and the spirit of La Bombonera
  • Wander through the colorful streets of Caminito
  • Escape the chaos in the peaceful Ecological Reserve
  • Discover economic history at the Women’s Bridge in Puerto Madero
  • Experience the beating heart of Argentina at Plaza de Mayo

 

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 small-group tours are crafted for curious travelers who want more than snapshots; they want stories, conversations, and connections.

This half-day tour is perfect for travelers who are eager to understand Argentina’s vibrant culture—past and present. You’ll learn how the 20th century shaped the city, how modern life blends with tradition, and what makes Porteños who they are today.

We believe travel fosters empathy, and our mission is to bridge cultures through meaningful local experiences. You won’t just pass through Buenos Aires—you’ll feel it.

 

Who Is This Experience For?

This experience is designed for travelers who value authenticity, connection, and insight. If you’re curious about Argentine life, enjoy active exploration, and prefer real-world experiences over tour-bus views—this tour was made for you.

If you prefer to stay behind a glass window, this might not be your ride—and that’s okay. But if you’re ready to see Buenos Aires up close, pedal through its contradictions, and engage with its people, we’ll be thrilled to have you along.

WHAT OTHER TRAVELLERS
LOVED ABOUT US

Date of experience: 05/2019 - Bárbara

I learnt lots about Argentine history and the social and political challenges today. I got to know how to prepare mate. I also made a pet glass to drink local fernet. Taste South America! What I appreciate much is that Biking Buenos Aires is environmentally friendly and uses sustainable products.
