I highly recommend this bike tour of Mexico City! The provided bikes and helmets were top-notch, and both the starting and ending points were easy to access with plenty to do nearby. The city’s cycling infrastructure was great, with minimal car traffic, and the guides prioritized our safety at crossings and intersections. This tour was one of the most enjoyable city rides I’ve experienced – well-planned with plenty of stops. Yibran and Dani, are fantastic local guides, shared amazing insights into the city’s culture and history. They even got some wonderful photos of us throughout the tour. They are the best!!! The tour was also a great way to meet other travelers and get recommendations for restaurants, events, and more. This was the best bike tour I’ve ever done and is a must-do for anyone wanting an immersive experience in Mexico City. Can't say enough great things about this tour!

I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is wanting to explore another side of CDMX outside of the typical tourist areas. Our day started with a ride on the metro to a museum in Iztapalapa. Our tour guide Ramon was incredibly knowledgeable, organized, and patient! We never felt unsafe throughout the duration of the tour. We also stopped by a mercado to taste test some delicious tacos before getting on the cable cars. Seeing the city by cable cars is breathtaking! You get to see how beautiful and expansive the city is. We ended the day back in the downtown area with a pulque taste testing. I loved how much history was integrated into this tour. This is definitely a must-do when in CDMX!

Olin was a super friendly guide and made the day special for me. I got an impression of the real México City and I really enjoyed the day. I highly recommend the tour. Thank you very much.
