Very Enjoyable. - I booked this tour only one day before. I’ve done cycle tours in several cities and I really enjoy them. This place was really difficult to find. The Uber dropped me off close by and I paced up and down trying to find it. After twenty minutes of still not finding it, I sent a message to the tour operator. Then I tried again. I went into the building only to be told this wasn’t the place. The staff don’t speak very good English which is ironic when this trip is catered for tourists. So I left there and went on another walk to find the location. Google maps were not wrong, the building I entered surely was the place, the staff were just clueless. I asked to speak to the manager and he then said he’d phone his friend 😆😆😆. The friend turned out to be an employee of the company Miguel. The sign was hung on a hook outside the building but had not been there when I was trying to find the location. Either that or the wind had rotated it thus hiding the vital information? So while I waited for him, because I was early incase of hiccups, I sat in the restaurant. The manager asked if I wanted to order anything? Sure I said, do you have a menu I could understand? No was the reply, photo’s, recommendations? Still no, so I ordered coffee as you could point to that lol. Miguel turned up shortly after and immediately I felt at ease. What a really nice guy. Informative, friendly and very empathetic. We chose our bikes and set off on the tour. It was just the two of us. He knows every inch of the city and is very experienced. He’s a credit to the company. He even told me how coffee is produced and manufactured. He is a proud patriotic Colombian and this is exactly what you need on a tour like this. A full five hours we spent seeing the highlights of the city. We started out as strangers and by the end of the tour we were friends. Highly recommended and five stars. 🌟💯💯💯🙏🏽🇨🇴🚲

Wheels on the ground to explore Bogota - I swear I had the best time on this tour. It’s was really nice experiencing Bogota from two wheels. Our coordinator made sure no one was left behind. There was always a 2nd person bringing up the rear to assure no one would lose their way. I suggest bringing an empty backpack. You will definitely want to load up on all the different varieties of fruit. The prices are mind blowing. Thank you Bogota Bike Tour for showing us an amazing tour of your city. Please remember what goes down, must go up. The ride down was a breeze. The ride up became a great workout especially with the Altitude....... ENJOY THE RIDE!!

A bike tour to understan the hidden stories of Colombia - This bike tour was the best way to understand the complexities of Colombia in a very experiencial and fun way. My guide andres was super knowledgeable and accomodating. He speaks great english and transmitted with a lot of passion his deep knowledge about Colombia. It was great to hear so many anechdotes and small details that are everywhere but are unpercieved until a guide like him makes them visible. I really recommend this trip for anyone visiting Bogota, specially if it is your first time and if you will travel the rest of Colombia. (take this ideally at the start of your trip)

Awesome Tour, So Worth It!! - We were fortunate to do this tour on a Sunday when many streets are closed to traffic. The tour was well planned, bikes were very good quality, so were helmets. Great itinerary, some good eats and drinks along the way, and we stopped to play a classic Colombian game. It was for sure a highlight of our trip to Bogota.

Such a great way to see Bogota! - The bike tour was so much fun!! My husband & I booked a private tour and when the guide who was to take us was sick on the day of our tour, the owner of the company took her place. We rode all over Bogota, looking at the amazing street art, the architecture of the city, learning about Bogota's culture & history. We rode our bikes through diverse neighborhoods that we never would have known about. What a buzzing and vibrant city! It was an awesome experience!

Brilliant introduction to Bogota - I loved the Bogota bike tour - a great way to cover more ground than on foot and pass through and visit many interesting places that a tourist might not immediately go to. Our guide told us about current societal and political matters, as well as historical, so you learnt a lot about the country and people. We stopped a a market to try endless delicious fruits, and stopped for coffee and chocolate. A great tour, highly recommended.

Bicycling around Candelaria with Annik - The bike tour is worth the money. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and provided a lot of historical information about Bogota. The stops were great. The Farmers Market where we tried a few different fruits, the coffee roasting shop where we sampled the coffee, and the last stop where we played the national game of Tejo. Enjoyed the company too. There were a total of five of us so it was very intimate. Note: Annik, if you read this review please email me at [email protected] :-)

I would think about it twice , bike sucked - The guide was good , the coffee amazing the bike sucked !!! It was hard to pedal and keep up despite my efforts stopping for one of the street mechanics . If you are going to run a place that makes the money out of bikes I would assume the bikes would be In a good shape ! I was frustrated and very mad about it. And also when I got to the address “they had close called the cel phone in a restaurant nearby and no answer . Would not recommend unless they get better bikes

Not as advertised - The listing said this was a street art tour but we barely saw 5 pieces. It also said this would be 6 hours but it was barely 3. Miguel was a nice guide and he did his best, but this just wasn't what was advertised. Additionally at the point where we start, the sign says 52.000 pesos, which is about 14 dollars. Paying 40 for this on viator is a total rip off.
