Fun and informative morning - Fun way to visit Lisboa and Belem. With our guide Silvia we learned a lot and stopped by some points of interest on our way to Belem that we probably wouldn’t have visited on our own. Don’t miss this tour (Pasteis de Belem a big big bonus)!

Excellent tour going from Santa Apolonia to Belem - This was an excellent tour beginning near the Santa Apolonia metro station and cycling to Belém (and back). Sylvia was very accommodating, making sure our bikes fit us well. The weather was not cooperating (with a light rain and mist), which Sylvia said was highly unusual for this time of the year. The bike seats did go down a little when you hit a bump, but they were easy to readjust. We went at a leisurely pace with plenty of time to walk around and see the sights, get photos, and we even stopped for 20ish minutes at the LX Factory to check it out! There was only one big ramp to climb, otherwise it was all flat. I would highly recommend this tour, especially if the weather is nice!

Easy, educational, fun, good exercise - I traveled solo to Lisbon for a few days and wanted to do a bike tour. The weather in late May was perfect, just before it got too hot here for the summer season. The guides are super friendly, and very considerate. Andre and Rodrigo were great hosts and very knowledgable! If you are not comfortable on a bike or in your biking ability, you should rent the E- Bike for less exertion. This tour was mostly flat with little elevation, it was easy. We biked along the path with a great view of the Ponte 25 de Abril bridge and the Tagus River. Our whole group became friends during our tour, laughing and learning along the way! A bike tour is a great way to see the city and enjoy a nice breeze in good company while you’re here in Lisbon.

Great bike tour! - We take bike tours in new cities when we can and Free Bike Tours from downtown Lisbon did not disappoint. The tour is not thru Lisbon but rather down the river to the monastery. (Downtown Lisbon is not conducive to cycling due to hills and cobblestone roads.) There were 12 of us which was manageable. Our guide, Rodrigo, spoke perfect English and was a lot of fun. We upgraded to an ebike upon arrival - very much worth the extra 10€. There were plenty of stops but the tour was as a good pace for everyone - I’m 58, my daughter is 25. Definitely would recommend for anyone wanting to see a beautiful part of Lisbon.

Excellent bike tour and guides - What a terrific day of biking and learning about the city and its history. Rodrigo was an amazing tour guide, keeping track of our group, fixing bicycles and telling us the history at key points in the city. E-bikes (assisted pedaling) were available upon request for an additional 10 euros. There’s a nominal fee to book, so remember the guides count on your generous tips. Although a little treacherous at times, there is a well marked path all the way to Belem. Mostly flat and for better bicyclists, a regular bike is fine. Thank you FREEBIKEYOURS.com and thank you Rodrigo from the Miami folks.

Very good way to visit Lisbon and spot the places you want to return to - Extremely kind guide who showed us the city well. This is a great way to identify places you want to return to and spend more time. Indeed, 22km on foot would have been too much but by bike, it was perfect. She knew the history of the places we visited well.

Great guide with good selection of stops - Great day out. Our guide was friendly and welcoming. Great selection of stops and information. I feel that I saw areas I wouldn't have without this tour. The bikes are easy to ride and good use of cycling lanes and off road paths.
