Great to explore the city alongside some exercise and conversations! - Had an amazing afternoon biking around the Palermo and Recoleta area with Raymond. Learned a lot about the old and new history of Buenos Aires and Argentina while also getting a chance to explore the parks, neighbourhoods and attractions. Also it was great to get in some exercise at the same time It's worth calling out that Raymond was a great conversationalist and the time flew by!

Bike tours - a “must-do”! - A great way to discover hidden gems in the area and to learn the history of the development of Buenos Aires and its culture. Debi was a great guide, taking time to find out what we were interested in and giving a more in depth explanation of what we were seeing. She gave a personal perspective to the history of the city and its people, which we really valued. Thank you!

Biking like a local with Raymond - Our bike ride with Raymond was one of our favorite experiences in Buenos Aires! It's so great to go with a local on a bike! You get to see so much of a place on bike - faster than walking but can always easily stop to get a better look at something. And Raymond knows where to go! Raymond gave us some interesting insight into Argentina's complicated history. His love for B.A. made us love it, too!

No other way to see BA - Professional outfit all the way. Starting with the booking process. Immediately responsive and flexible to our needs and desires. But more important, of course, is the guide. Debora (Debi) was amazing. Obviously, safety first. Debi knew the bike lanes and we were always well cared for. Hand signals, nice pace and such a pleasant ride that we almost forgot we were in a city! Knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Passionate and thorough. Insightful and sincere. I’m sure all the guides are great, but you may want to ask for Debi. Highly recommend Biking Buenos Aires without any hesitation.

Great way to see the city - Our family of 4 tour the bike tour and we had a great time seeing all the sites. Ricky was our guide and he knew exactly where to take us and how much to tell us. The bike were easy to ride and the seats were comfortable. We rode for about 11 miles and stopped for lunch at a nice food truck. If you take this tour ask for Ricky!

A great way to discover Buenos Aires - My husband and I had a delightful tour of the city with Jackson, who taught us a lot about Argentine history and culture in an engaging way. Highlights were drinking yerba mate by a lake (we had been wanting to try this national drink), visiting the amazing Recoleta Cemetery, learning about Jose de San Martin, and chatting over empanadas. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Buenos Aires!!! - What a fabulous experience! Jackson showed us some beautiful parks in the heart of the city. The routes were well-designed and he provided plenty of stops to enjoy. He shared lots of history and funny stories and we even stopped for a matte break! And it was topped off with a delicious empanada lunch at a local place. It was a great way to end our two-week stay in Argentina.
