My wife and I opted for this bike tour as we had a late-night flight out of Buenos Aires. It was a perfect way to enjoy the Palermo neighborhood and its beautiful green areas for four hours. Our tour guide, Julian, did a great job leading our ride. He is personable and made sure we were safe all along. For all but a few blocks, we rode the city's expansive "ciclovias" (dedicated bike lanes). Julian knowledge of Argentina/Buenos Aires history, culture and daily life make for a rewarding cultural experience. Finishing our ride at the iconic Floralis Generica drinking "mate" was a special treat. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much for sharing this. We’re really happy to hear the tour fit so well into your last day in Buenos Aires. Palermo’s green areas are a great way to end a trip, at a slower pace. It’s lovely to know you felt safe and well guided throughout the ride, and we’ll pass your words on to Julián — he’ll really appreciate them. Finishing at Floralis with a mate is a simple moment, but a very local one, so we’re glad it stood out for you. Thank you for riding with us and for the recommendation. We wish you a smooth flight and great memories from Buenos Aires.

Perfect Ride-Awesome Guide

We had a great time with Gilda. She led us on a safe tour of the city. The bike shop is small, but her heart is big in Buenos Aires. She answered all our cultural and historical questions and was interested in us as well. She had a personal touch of explaining and offering us the experience of mate. We highly recommend this company, and Gilda specifically.

This was a great way to take in the parks and see some of the city. There were bike lanes in most places and we felt safe. The tour guide was knowledgeable and treated us to Mate tea a traditional way to end the day with friends.

Excelente atención y guía de Carlos. Una hermosa y tranquila experiencia para conocer BA desde un transporte muy especial y fresco. Solo mejoraría la comida o por lo menos la describiría mejor para evitar sorpresas

Response from Host, Dec 2021

¡Hola, Alejandro! ¡Gracias por tu reseña! Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron del paseo. El almuerzo lo hacemos en food truck tradicional de Buenos Aires que conocemos y que sabemos que ofrecen comida de buena calidad. La idea es que los viajeros vivan una experiencia típica de cualquier persona de Buenos Aires y sientan el sabor local.
