Great way to see the city and Tigre - What a tremendous way to see Buenos Aires! On a sparkling summers day we rode north through the parks to Tigres , stopping for a coffee at Havana en route. Raymond was a terrific guide. Beyond being a movie actor ( seriously) he is an accomplished cyclist and Kayaker , and has outstanding knowledge of the city and its landmarks. The lunch venue was Tigre lunch “club” , with a large private beach and amazing food cooked over charcoal. Allow at least 9 hours for the round trip - we even came back from Tigre by train

A different side to Buenos Aires - What an excellent way to see the Buenos Aires that you won't get to see from a tour bus. We opted to cycle the whole route and our guide, Jackson led us through the city streets and avenues to the peace of the park at Vicente Lopez where we took a break to learn the ins and outs of mate and how not to let oneself down in polite company. Carrying on to Tigre, we took a small water taxi to pick up our canoes and then paddled off to lunch, which was lovely. Jackson is great company. After lunch we took a quiet route back to the canoe hire, avoiding the wake of some of the larger boats on the delta. A quick helado stop (very nice) and then the train back to Retiro and a short ride back to the start. Thank you Jackson for an unforgettable day. May your bomilla never block.

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!

Arrived to find we had no reservation - We showed up for our tour only to find they didn’t have it on the schedule even though it had been confirmed via VIATOR. The biking company was apologetic and suggested and abridged version of this tour, which we accepted. They asked us to wait an hour for the guide to arrive. We said yes, and an hour later were told the guide would not be able to take us today. While they were very nice and our money was fully refunded, we ultimately wasted one or two of our days in Buenos Aires.
