Bikes and birds! - I love to bike, and when i found out about this tour, I was super excited, cuz I also love birds!. And it lived up to the expectations, we rode down to pantanos de villa , we saw so many birds even on the way there that I hadn't noticed Just walking through the city. We went on a cute little boat ride in the marshy area, and then we rode out to the ocean and saw this amazing lagoon filled with amazing birds! Highly recommend! Lima and the area are super flat also so it was really easy biking.

Fun and Informative Outing - Fully enjoyed biking through Miraflores, Barranco and Chorriillos although traffic can be a little crazy in the city. My friend and I would not have wanted to rent bikes on our own. Fortunatley, our guides made it possible to navigate the city streets without issue. Happy to have selected this particular bike tour because the best part of the day was going to the Wildlife Refuge. We took a boat ride that introduced us to a variety of species of birds that we had never seen before. Our guide was very knowledgable and had an eagle eye for spotting wildlife.

Great option for sustainable tourism in Peru! - ANP is a great option to get to know the protected natural areas in and around Lima. I have been living in Lima for several years, and I have taken several trips with them! ANP always takes care of everything. For the bike trips, they provided safety protocol, safety equipment, snacks, water, helmets, binoculars. The owner, Milagros, and all of the tour guides are very knowledgeable about wildlife and natural spaces. I really enjoy seeing Lima through their eyes. I also took their weekend trip to Huancaya with my family a few years ago, and it was magical. The landscapes were breathtaking. It was an unforgettable off-the-beaten path experience. ANP will always provide you with a unique, thoughtful, and meaningful experience. Highly recommended!

You can see much more of Lima from a bike than you can from a car - My daughter and I did a bike tour with ANP Travel during my recent visit to Peru. The guides paid a lot of attention to safety protocol. Before we began, they taught us the hand signals they would be using during the ride. The route was well-paced, with time for rest and sight-seeing. I was impressed with the guide's knowledge about the city as well. He shared the history of the origin of Love Park in Miraflores and used bird calls and shared interesting facts about the different species that we saw in the Olive Grove. The guide was bilingual and his English was very clear.
