If you do one thing in San Jose… - We had the most incredible time on the Chepe Cletas Bike and Bites tour. We were not sure what to expect, but love to cycle so we were excited to explore San Jose in this way. Our tour guides Laura and Alex were absolutely fantastic! We were blown away by their deep knowledge about the history of San Jose and Costa Rica. They took us through many different neighborhoods and past major monuments stopping along the way to share stories and interesting facts. We were hanging on their every word. They were such great teachers and so friendly and funny and kind, it was fantastic! The two highlights of the tour were stoping at Modo Cafe and El Fronton. Modo Cafe is a beautiful, contemporary cafe situated inside an adorable gift shop. The whole space was fresh feeling, beautiful, and cozy. We were treated to a private coffee training and tasting where the owners Daniella and Felipe taught us about the different processes of beans and guided us through three different varieties. The coffee was delicious and we were so impressed. Daniella and Felipe were kind, fun and absolute experts. The shop has a lot of cute gifts and beautiful housewares. El Fronton was our other favorite stop. The second highlight was a local mainstay serving empanadas since 1948 and these were the best empanadas we have ever had. We had never had empanadas made of masa or corn before and these empanadas were fresh, hot, crunchy and delicious! We were so thrilled with the entire experience and it was the absolute best way to kick off our trip.

Bicycle tour Historic spots San Jose - Alex met us on time (we were 5 min late…sorry Alex) and immediately introduced himself. He remembered our kids names and spoke with them in a very engaging manner. The day after our tour our 12 year old shared many details he learned with family that I had already forgotten. The bikes were well maintained. Alex was very passionate and knowledgeable. He shared many historic spots with us that most tourists would never have found or even known existed! The empanada stop during a brief rainstorm, and the coffee demonstration were highlights of our tour!
We highly recommend this tour!!

Outstanding tour - This was an outstanding tour. Our guide was knowledgeable about history, culture, art, food and had great stories to tell. He was flexible and eager to answer all of our questions. It was one of the many highlights of our time in Costa Rica and we highly recommend it. The riding was easy and not very far with lots of stops.

Amazing guided tour in the heart of San Jose. - Laura was an awesome guide. Really showed us some hidden gems right in the heart of San Jose. From where to pick up cool souvenirs, to the best spots to eat and drink, Laura knows what is going on in San Jose. Excellent at helping us navigate through busy streets and she stopped at a lot of really cool and historical spots throughout while providing great details about each location. Really connected us to the past and present of this cool city and amazing country and kept us well fed along the way. Would do it again in an instant. Highly recommend for a day 1 activity on San Jose.

Excellent tour with Alex - This was an amazing tour. Our guide Alex knew a ton of history and also gave us a really good sense of current events and just how it really is to live in San Jose. I asked him to take us on a tour with not a lot of hills and he totally replanned the route to accommodate. We saw a large number of the famous sitting San Jose and he also took us to a traditional old empanada place and a coffee tasting. Overall an excellent y bike tour and great way to see San Jose in a few hours. Alex again was excellent.
