Our guide Sol was very knowledgeable and a joy to be with. His understanding and passion for the history and politics of Buenos Aires and all of Argentina was evident throughout the tour. Very well done.

Excellent way to tour the city! Our guide, Patricio, was very knowledgeable, friendly and fun! We chose the private tour for our group of 5 people and would highly recommend.

Marcelo was an excellent guide with lots of interesting background information, historical, political, and contemporary culture, during a modest bike ride around the San Telmo area, which managed to include many tourist highlights Caminito, Puenta de la Mujer, Puerto Madera among others. To add real Argentine flavor to the tour he includes a tailgate party style Fernet com Coke at the stadium meeting park and mate in the park made and served in the traditional way. He is fully fluent in English.
Caveats: this is just heart of the city as it says and it does not explore further away. Lunch is a local Argentine experience and not gourmet may be good or bad depending on your perspective. The bicycles are single speed.

A great way to see some great sights in BA. About 80 percent of the ride is on dedicated bike lanes. Bikes are good and terrain is flat. Our tour guide Santiago was very friendly and knowledgeable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our bike tour with Kaylee and Pedro! They were also amazingly flexible, agreeing to wait for us for over a half hour as we were unavoidably delayed...Kaylee is very knowledgable about Argentinian history and gave us a lot of information about the various sites we visited. We stopped for a yummy lunch at a local food truck - delicious! Kaylee also followed up by sending us various articles of interest, as well as local restaurant recommendations. As Kaylee is from California, her English was impeccable. Overall, we all had a WONDERFUL time. The ONLY negative is that the condition of the bikes, on the whole, was not great - particularly the brakes...Nevertheless, we all returned safely after riding around Buenos Aires for the day!!

Fabulous tour!!!
Rodrigo was incredible, so pleasant and knowledgeable. The perfect way to visit B.A. and absorb the soul and passion.
Easy ride good for everyone, they gave us also water and ponchos for the rain.

Amazing! Rodrigo was warm and funny, and very informative. His English was excellent, and he answered every question as if he had never heard it before, which is a great talent! The bike ride was flat, but far enough to feel like I had gotten a little exercise, and the lunch from the food truck was my best meal in Buenos Aires!
