- Puerto Madero - Designed to be the economic epi-centre of the city and built with the same brick used for the Albert Docks in England (and bollards from Sheffield foundry in Wales), this port could be considered one of the largest art installation in the world as it was only briefly used as a port before being abandoned and cordoned-off for 80 years…

Must-do Bike Tour! - Pablo was an amazing guide for us, and my wife and I felt like he was our lifelong friend at the end of the tour. We learned so much about the history, culture, and modern life in Buenos Aires. Could not recommend more highly!

Best way to experience Buenos Aires landmarks - Pablo and Patricio were amazing guides! The tour was thoughtful and well organized, they had a buddy system that made sure all 7 of us were safe crossing roads and navigating throughout the city. They were knowledgeable, friendly, calm, charismatic, and generous with their time and a lovely mate and alfajores treat. We were two families, four adults and three children between the ages of 12 and 15 and did a private south tour. We hit all the spots on the itinerary and were lucky with the weather on a cooler day in March. If the sun were shining it probably would’ve been much hotter. Recommend bringing shades for better visibility. They provide the bikes, helmets and water. We wouldn’t have been able to see everything we saw had we not done the tour. It took about 4 hours and the biking was relatively easy, only one small hill at the end. Highly recommend! And ask for Pablo and Patricio. And… perfect English. Thanks guys!

Northern circle city cycling tour - Raymond was very knowledgeable and interesting guide for our tour. He’s a Kiwi who’s mad BA his home some 15 years ago. His love for his chosen home comes through as hi passionately shares gems of this vibrant and fantastic place. The cycling was great and is a perfect way to see this city in sections of interest. Don’t hesitate to choose this tour and make sure you get Raymond, a kind, knowledgeable funny guide who can make one mean Mate!

Nice bike ride with many information and a mate ceremony - We had a very nice bike ride with Ricardo. He gave us many information about the
Places we went and about local and Argentinian history and culture. We also got to know a Mate ceremony.
The bikes were in a good shape as well. We recommend Biking Buenos Aires and Ricardo as a tour guide as well!

Buenes Aires Bike Tour - This bike tour took us through La Boca And the Caminito art area as well as Puerto Madera and Costanera Sur Ecological Reserve. We were able to get a detailed history of Argentina from our Tour Guide. This was a fantastic biking tour and I would highly recommend it to anyone who likes to hear about history as well as enjoying much of nature and the beauty of Buenos Aires. Patricio made this such a delightful experience and he is a 10 out of 10 Tour Guide.
