Biking with the best - The tour was awesome and the guides were the best. It felt great to ride in the city and take in some amazing views. Our guides took great photos and provided a headset guided tour as they rode with us. An afternoon well spent.

Five star ride around Guatemala City - Cannot recommend this tour enough. Who knew there was so much to see in Guatemala City? Adriana and Serge are excellent tour guides. This tour was a great mix of culture and history in an easily paced 4ish hours. The vast majority of the ride is on city bike paths. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a way to spend a day in Guatemala City.

Highlight of our trip! - Excellent tour! Adriana and Serge were fantastic tour guides and really went above and beyond to make our experience fun and memorable. We covered a lot of ground in 4 hours and learned about different parts of the city. This is a great way to see the destination points of the city and get unique insights that you won’t find on your own. Adriana and Serge were kind, knowledgeable, and attentive guides and took a ton of pictures for us! We appreciated their expertise in the route and historical significance of each area. I highly recommend this tour, definitely a highlight of our trip!

Amazing bike tour in Guatemala City! - Highly recommended activity for Guatemala City! From easy booking to the most accommodating guides, I could not have asked for a better experience. Although I was the only one on the tour, Adriana and Serge offered the tour fully using the audio guide and added information as needed or when asked. Serge made sure of the safety from the back watching the traffic and directing cars to stop if needed. And he took great pictures for me throughout the tour. I have taken 20+ bike tours around the world, and this is definitely in the top 3. Very well organized and thought out tour. Don’t hesitate to book this bike tour!

The best part of our visit to Guatemala! - We arrived in Guatemala City (GC) for our first time late (10:00 pm) the night before our pre-booked bike tour so we could not see much of the city that evening. The next morning the tour operators Adriana and Sergio met us at our hotel exactly on time and took us in a very clean SUV to the meet up point.
The bicycles and safety equipment were all in excellent condition and ready to ride. After a brief safety meeting and familiarity with the equipment we were ready to go.
I must tell you this was a fantastic tour and we were so happy this was the first thing we did upon our arrival in GC. We wanted to start this trip with some exercise and fresh air, plus learn something of the history and culture of this very unique country. It all comes alive with this trip. It is extremely informative plus a ton of fun!
We never felt rushed, unsafe, or over exerted. The tour provides water and a snack, and you will experience so much of this city in a way that’s not possible with a walking tour or motor coach. Adriana and Sergio are experienced and considerate. You do need to be a capable bike rider because it is a full four hour trip and you will be covering a lot of territory (as much as you want, but never too much). GC is a very rideable city.
What I appreciated most about this tour is the depth of history you will experience without the distraction of being taken to souvenir vendors and tourist traps. You will visit every major monument, plaza, significant public art and building in the city (and there are several).
Adriana and Sergio are friendly and happy to introduce first timers to this beautiful city which they clearly love. They are excellent and patient photographers too, and they will send all those photos to you by email or instagram, gratis.
This was the highlight of our visit to Guatemala from the United States, and certainly made the rest of our visit more meaningful in terms of understanding its history and place in the world. Adriana and Sergio ride with you and provide you with an ear piece to follow the sights along the way in English or Spanish (maybe other languages too).

FABULOUS EXPERIENCE! 100% recommended - - This is the best way to get to know Guatemala City and its history.
- The hosts are very friendly, they were even kind enough to pick us up at our hotel (central) and return us at the end of the tour.
- At the starting point, they gave us a backpack with a helmet, gloves and a headset to hear details of the places we visited.
- The bikes are high-end and it was certainly a pleasure to ride them.
- The ride is suitable for the whole family, 98% of the route is on bike paths and the guides make sure to prioritize safety at all times.
- We were even able to see the central market and even make purchases. The hosts transported our purchases in the trailer of one of their bicycles.
- Throughout the ride we made stops to hydrate ourselves and enjoy healthy snacks.
- The hosts took photos of us and shared them with us, so we will be able to remember this experience for a long time.
Without a doubt it is a MUST if you visit Guate!!!!!!!
