Fun bike in Madrid - Great overview of the central city. Gabriel was very knowledgeable about the history and also funny. Felt safe riding through the parks and streets. Tapas and drinks are good way to finish with chatting and debriefing time.

Do this e-bike tour! - A great introduction to some of the city highlights, we felt very safe on the roads, there we’re 10 in our group which felt like a good number. David was very enthusiastic and informative, with lots of interesting anecdotes. The bikes were super easy, and the optional tapas were lovely pintxos - well worth it.

Great informative bike tour - Great way to cover a lot of ground in a few hours. David was my guide and he was so knowledgeable and passionate about Madrid. His history of the city was incredible. The staff was very friendly, the bikes were safe. Pack some courage as you will navigate through busy areas. David always made sure we were doing well. Highly recommend

Really enjoyed the tour -... - Really enjoyed the tour - the pace was good. We had enough time at the start to get used to riding the bikes around the meeting point and then headed off. The guide was great and it was lovely to stop for a good drink in the Retiro Park during the ride.

Solid Choice! - David was a friendly and knowledgeable (former history teacher) guide for learning about Madrid. We always try to take a guided bike tour to learn about a city when we first visit, and this one did not disappoint. We chose an e-bike, which was well maintained and did its job. The only negative, relative to some of the others we’ve taken, was that the ride seemed condensed in terms of distance and we just prefer a little more riding time.
