Great biking tour of Bogota! Luis was an exceptional guide who was very nice and knowledgeable about the city. The ride itself was not difficult even for two people who are not accustomed to the high altitude. We had a lovely time touring neighborhoods we otherwise would not have seen. Would highly recommend this tour if it is your first time visiting Bogota!Went on this trip with Luciani and Jose. It was probably the most fun thing I did in Bogota as you cover quite a bit of ground outside La Candelaria and learn a bit more about the neighbourhoods around the centre! Highly recommended, even the starting point was a sight to behold, so arrive early!

It was a great opportunity to experience Bogota by bike to see a bit more than just La Calendaria, I really enjoyed the tour with our guide and liked the interaction during the stops, we had the chance not just to listen but also to think about answers to some questions of our guide Luis, while trying different fruit juices and in the end delicious colombian coffee!So much fun in the tour. I am not good at biking, but one of the guides was very considerate and wait for me. The weather was good and we were able to see a lot of good views of Bogota
