Bike tour through a surprisingly green city - Great way to explore Bogota: you're seeing areas you wouldn't by simply walking. Thanks to Bernardo we also learned quite a bit about the history, socialeconomic background, fruits and of course coffee - a clear two thumbs up!

Enjoyed finding out about Bogotá - The terrain in Bogotá is quite hilly so we actually swapped across to the walking tour as my wife has a bad leg currently and middle age passed a while ago. However, it was our choice and I couldn’t mark the guide down for that. Sara was excellent: personable, knowledgeable, good English and some good stops to taste different fruits in a market and properly filtered coffee made with an extremely painstaking method. Thank you. 5*

Amazing bike tour - We had an amazing bike tour with Jose. Even though we only were two people he still did the tour, showed us many different quarters in Bogota and explained a lot about the city’s history. He was also very considerate, drove carefully, looked out for us and asked is which quarters we would like to see and if we are comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Fun and informative way to see the old city - The tour was very informative and we got to see a small but interesting portion of the city. (Only 10% according to our guide!) The bikes are single gear and in good shape. There are some portions towards the end where the uphill climb may be slightly tough if you are out of shape/older but not too hard. Pro tip: bring plenty of water, we ran out halfway through and didn’t have a chance to stop along the way for a refill.

Best way to see Bogota - We really enjoyed our tour with Bernardo. He took is around to some lesser-known areas and gave interesting insights into the history and culture of Bogota. The bikes were sturdy and well suited to the riding. Sunday is a great day to do this tour as they open the cyclovias.

The bike trip that didn’t happen - Trip was cancelled 15 minutes after the scheduled start due to a no show host. Consider going with a better reviewed, more reputable company to entrust your family vacation to.
