1. Where is the meeting point? The meeting point is different for each Tour. It can be found on the right side of the tour webpage and is mentioned in the booking as well.
2. I noticed the variety of tours in each city. Would I see the same sights by booking more than one tour? Baja bike tours are complementary, which means that you can book two or three tours in the same city, without seeing the same sights.
3. Is Baja Bikes the whole season open? Our office is all-the-year open. However, cycling relies on the weather and is therefore especially in some cities not possible during certain months or only available on request. Winter in Berlin can for example bring minus 20 degree and half a meter snow, which makes cycling impossible. Following you can find an overview of all cities with the dates there are no tours:
