A great day out - though a bit of fitness needed! - Ray led the trip - there were three of us. We had a great time. The ride really gets you out of the city, into the northern barrios (neighbourhoods) and beyond - places like San Fernando, San Isidro and Tigre. We made some stops and learned about mate drinking amongst other things. We took a ride on the delta which was lovely, as was the assado bbq. Apart from the adventure itself, this was also a nice way to make connections as well as get to know Ray, who knows the city and the local customs very well. He is a good cyclist with a sense of humour. I wish I could do it all again!

Great tour, Great Guide, Great Company - We did the tour with Jackson, Jackson is a US citizen who is currently living in Argentina, great guy, as you can guess no problem with the English language on the tour.
The tour is From 9 am until 5-6 pm, depending on your group speed with the bikes.
The tour was great, it was fun and they took care of the food and water while on the tour.
I recommend doing it if you are visiting this great city.
PS:
They also have a Pizza tour here in Bs.As, we didn't have enough time to do it, but Jackson recommended it and Italian food and Pizza especially is a must have in Argentina, so having a tour that will show you around the best pizza in Buenos Aires, sounds great!

BA and Delta Tiger Bike Tour - We had a fantastic day with Martin and Jackson! Very good guides and a very complete experience with a stop to learn and drink Mate, a barbecue lunch, an kayak trip and one by boat on the Delta Tiger. Highly recommended to know another side of Buenos Aires!!

Great way to see the city and beyond! - If you like to bike, kayak, and experience a city beyond the downtown, this is the adventure for you. A full day biking through downtown Buenos Aires and out to the Tigre region. Our wonderful guides, Jackson and Pablo, skillfully and patiently guided us through city streets and along well maintained bike paths 24 miles outside the downtown to the beautiful Tigre district. They pointed out interesting sights and gave us a feel for what it’s like to live in and around Buenos Aires. The bikes were great and Jackson set a pace that worked well for the group. For reasons beyond anyone’s control, the kayak portion of the trip had to be cancelled. While disappointing, Jackson and Pablo handled it very professionally and treated us to alternative activities that had us not even missing the kayaking. You’ll have a delicious and bountiful bar-b-que lunch and bond over mate. It will definitely be the highlight of our visit to Buenos Aires.

Awesome Bike and Kayak tour in Buenos Aires - I had so much fun on the two tours - the graffiti tour and then came back for more on the Tigre bike and kayak. Such a great way to experience the city on a more intimate level and moving on two wheels adds to the fun!
Raymond is a passionate and safe guide. I learnt so much about the ancient and contemporary history of Buenos Aires/Argentina. He’s so passionate about the country and it shines through.
Every effort is made to get the most out of the experience.
The highlight for me witnessing locals at work spray painting walls, cycling through the suburbs of BA, learning to make my first maté, and feeling like huckleberry Finn on the Tigre river.
Thanks Raymond for an awesome experience I will treasure it for a long time.

Fun Day of Exercise and Sights in Tigre - We spent an amazing day of exercise coupled with fun with Ray. We bicycled, road a train, a boat and took a kayak to/from delightful traditional lunch on the Tigre. Ray was informative, fun, funny and understanding with the kids. It was fabulous way to connect with the city.
