Julian was a wonderful guide. He was very knowledgeable and so friendly! This was such a great way to see so much of the City and learn about its history! It was an easy ride, so if you're not a fan of exercise on vacation, I still recommend it! Even on a hot summer day, this was a great tour!

Fun easy-going way to learn about Buenos Aires’ history. Got to explore some good neighborhoods and appreciated to stop for empanadas and a drink. The ride itself was not particularly strenuous and I probably would’ve enjoyed another hour to check out the ecological reserve. A lovely, active way to learn more about the beautiful city of Buenos Aires.

We had an excellent guide, Lucy. She was knowledgeable and engaging. She took the time to learn our interests and tailored the tour accordingly. We highly recommend the tour and Lucy. Thanks for a great day!!

Ignacio was a delightful and funny guide. I enjoyed the tour and discussions. He taught us a lot and made the day enjoyable. Even when it was busy with traffic, we felt safe. It was flat and easy to ride. I highly recommend to anyone, even if they haven’t biked much.

Highly highly recommend! I travel for work and each time I get to a new city, I take a bike tour to get the lay of the land and see more highlights than I would walking. This was one of the top bike tours I’ve taken. Kevin shared so many interesting tidbits about each of the places we saw. He was personable, passionate and thoroughly knowledgeable. Sandra accompanied us and impressively kept us safe by monitoring traffic and our passage. The tour included a stop where we could get coffee, empanadas and other refreshments. Huge value for the money and a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, Can’t recommend enough.
Brandee_S, May 2026
Kevin was our guide and he was fabulous. He was very knowledgeable about all the areas we visited. Flat areas to travel so a very easy ride. We enjoyed this tour and learned so much! His English was amazing!
Karyn_G, May 2026
Punctual, friendly, excellent English. Tour stays mostly on street bike paths. Comfortable bikes and easy navigation.
Alison_V, May 2026
Great easy cycle ride on single speed city bikes. Lots of stops where guide gave local insights and history. Nice to have a 30 mins off the bike in La Boca to walk around the vibrant area. Michelle was bubbling with enthusiasm for her lovely city.

Lucy and her team were amazing. She brought incredible energy and intrigue to Buenos Aires, highlighting so many interesting things we could do with the rest of our stay, while also covering a lot of Argentinian history and explaining way of life.
Roya_F, Apr 2026
This bike tour is a delightful way to explore Buenos Aires. Highly recommended. Comfortable pace, informative and enjoyable guide, and safe as well.
Tana_H, Apr 2026
A brilliant way to see Buenos Aires! An interesting and informative way to see the city and get some exercise. The route is mostly pretty flat so it's an easy leisurely ride. Our guide was friendly, helpful and engaging and answered everyone's questions about life in Argentina, and the other tour participants who were from a variety of countries including the US, Norway, Canada and the Netherlands, were also friendly and chatty and really good company. And we had excellent and very cheap empanadas for lunch!
Jamie_B, Apr 2026

Michelle was excellent! Charming, intelligent, and an excellent storyteller and historian.. The tour was well paced and covered just the right distance and level of content. It really helped us get a beginners perspective of Buenos Aires
Liam_S, Apr 2026
Kevin was the best guide. He was so friendly, funny and gave us so much insight into Buenos Aires and Argentina. The tour was great, we cycled around 15km of the city, and even stopped for a drink and snack. He gave us some great recommendations too. Would highly recommend the tour and you are especially lucky if Kevin is your guide. Muchos Gracias 😆

Biking through Buenos Aires, guide stopped multiple times to give her very opinionated view on the history and current state of her country. Very opinionated.
Biking was a nice way to see a little of the city. Tour guide was not so great.

Highly informative, and it gives you a nice tour around the city. The guides were very nice and really cared about our safety when crossing streets. It was supposed to keep raining, but it turned out to be really warm and sunny.

Our guide Johny (Jonathan ;)) was very knowledgeable and his positive energy made this tour extra enjoyable! We got a lot of background information about Buenos Aires and Argentina, if you want to enjoy the city more and like to know about Argentina’s history this is a must do.

Lucy and Matteo were fabulous and I highly
Recommend this tour.
Lucy takes you to places in Buenos Aires you will not see on tour bus.
Lucy speaks very good English and this is not common on South America tours

We had a spanish tour with Marcela. She was amazing! It ended up just being our group of 2. We did the South tour. All the stops were great and included some hidden spots. We even had time to eat Choripan and she made sure to take us to the best one in La Boca. I was nervous at the idea of riding in the streets ( I am not an avid cyclist), but we had no issues. Most of the ride was on bicycle paths with protective rails. Towards the end there were bike paths without separation from the cars but the drivers here respect the cyclist and give you enough space. Don't hesitate even if you dont ride a bike on a regular, very doable! Hopefully we have time to do the north tour. I would recommend this to anyone.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for the lovely feedback. We're so glad the tour exceeded your expectations!

Lucy, our ride leader/tour guide was excellent. I always felt safe and the bikes were in very good working condition. Instructions for the starting point were perfect. Lucy is passionate about the city of Buenos Airies and gave us comprehensive history and commentary. She was extremely gracious and considerate to all 7 riders. We stopped for a local delicious snack in a vibrant cafe. She made the experience one I will always remember.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
So happy you enjoyed the snacks, our guide and the scenery! Thanks for the wonderful review.
Mike_Z, Mar 2026
Our group was a bit too large (13 riders) but the sites we visited were very interesting and worth the ride. The bikes were in pretty good shape with comfortable seats. I would recommend this tour to get a very good sense of the city neighbourhoods.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
It’s great to know you enjoyed both the cycling and the stories. Thanks for choosing us!
Lee_h, Mar 2026
Our guide was Michelle and she went above and beyond on this tour,
Really informative, really polite and with a great attitude
My wife and I loved the whole experience and recommend it to all, especially if your Argentinian history is not up to scratch
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thanks for the shout-out! We’re glad we could provide a memorable experience for you.
Stefanie_H, Mar 2026
Michelle was personable, articulate and enthusiastic. The ride was never too difficult, as most of Buenos Aires is flat. There was a good mix of urban and park land. The pace is not fast, but expect approximately two hours of active saddle time. Highly recommended for an intro to city in terms of history and geography.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for the kind words! We’re so glad you had a great time exploring the city with us.
Irina_B, Mar 2026
Absolutely fabulous experience and you’ll see the sights that you would not experience on foot— or by car. Highly recommended.
