This is what customers say about this tour
20 rate this tour with 4.9 stars*** was a great tour guide- really relaxed and friendly with lots of fun and interesting info as well as great snacks
*** was a great tour guide - we covered loads of the city on the bike and had a good laugh with her, she was really friendly and interesting
Interesting and also funny with our guide ***! Thanks for hosting us!
Good guide who took plenty of time to tell us a lot about Uruguay and Montevideo in particular. The bikes are okay, but electric is more pleasant on some sections due to hills and strong headwinds.
This was our first time visiting Montevideo by cruise, and this tour is definitely highly recommended if you are visiting Montevideo by cruise! The meeting point is less than a 10-minute walk from the cruise terminal. Valentina spoke fluent English, and we saw the nicest spots and ate delicious local treats. We also received a lot of information! It is highly recommended for discovering Montevideo in a short amount of time! The contact with Lara beforehand was also very pleasant! TIP: If you really want to surprise them, bring along a typical Dutch treat, such as licorice or stroopwafels ;)
*** is an expert and has delved into the history of Montevideo. Provides clear explanations and takes the time for questions. Good (new) bikes are available. The nice thing about lunch is that she uses local products and tea. The bike tour is highly recommended.
*** was excellent Very interesting tour
We took a very nice bike tour in Dutch with *** and 4 others. *** knew a lot to tell about Montevideo and Uruguay, and the lunch in the park was delicious. We visited hidden gems that we wouldn't have found ourselves, and cycling through the city and along the Ramblas is also wonderfully refreshing. Highly recommended, definitely do it!
*** is a lovely guide who showed us around Montevideo in an enthusiastic manner. She has a lot of knowledge about the history of the city and is happy to share her knowledge. We highly recommend the bike tour through Montevideo!
