Great Bike Tour - We took the bike tour with Javi and had a great time! We covered a lot of ground and learned some of the history of Vigo. The electric bikes were perfect for the hills. Javi made sure that we were comfortable with the bikes, enjoyed showing us the city, and made the trip a lot of fun!

Fun way to see the city! - The e-bikes were very easy and made the hills of Vigo easy! Our guide was friendly and accommodating. He even arranged a taxi for us so we’d make it back to our cruise in time.

Our Vigo highlight - This is a MUST do. You get to see Vigo from an alternative perspective, you get to learn some of its history, you get to meet Javi who is a great host and most interesting person. Also if you are really lucky you might even get to meet his father Alfonso (but that’s another story). Kevin and family highly recommend.

A must to do - Javi was a fantastic guide that was totally considerate of two older Aussies who took us on 22 Kilometers tour of Vigo. Great insights provided of the city. Enjoyed immensely and we recommend this to all who wish for an enjoyable time to learn about an interesting city and its culture.
