An excellent bike tour of Madrid - What a wonderful bike tour! We rented e-bikes, which made the (few) hills easy. From start to finish, this was a fantastic three hours. The little guy at the shop who sorted the bikes out was very helpful (be nice, arrive early!). Our guide was Ron, originally from California, and a resident of Madrid for more than 20 years. Ron was FANTASTIC! He was a very informative guide, and considerate, too, always checking that everyone was okay, showing us places for water and offering to take photos. His historical knowledge was impressive and he gave us just the right amount of information to keep the tour peppy. We loved the more gossipy stuff too, like finding about the Duchessa de Alba (complete with photos, hilarious!). The 3 hours flew by, and we saw some incredible things. It was quite a hot day, so ending up in the Retiro Park was a good choice. If only we could have spent longer with this great guide. Thank you, Ron! Thank you, Trixi Bikes! Bruno and Andy

An Excellent Introduction to Madrid - The bicycle trip through the streets of Madrid was great fun. An excellent way to see the City as we were able to explore more areas in less time than on foot, yet at a slow enough pace to take in the sights. Our guide was a longtime resident of Madrid and was knowledgeable and passionate about this amazing City.

Madrid Bike Tour - Spent a fabulous 3 hours cycling round Madrid with Ronald seeing all the sights and beautiful buildings, and learning so much about the history of this wonderful city. Always feel daunted in large cities, but riding through the different districts and learning about their individual characteristics made it feel like visiting a number of small towns. Most definitely the best way to experience Madrid in a short time.

Very good!! - Excellent service and very good bikes. They have a very practical self-guide. If your bike gets punctured or breaks, they will help you there.

Highly recommended! - Recommended! A super nice guide Cris took us to great places by bike. We were surprised with its fascinating information and stories, great places, space for a photo and a break, and as icing on the cake we went to a terrace. We did the bike tour from 10 am to 1 pm with two children aged 9 and 12. They also really enjoyed it!

Disappointment - We cycle everywhere with baja bike tours, which was disappointing for the first time yesterday. A very dirty guide, unkempt and poorly prepared. Huge letdown
