Riding the E-bikes, seeing the sights throughout Lagos was amazing!! Federico, our guide, was outstanding in explaining each area, sharing tidbits and making sure everyone was safe and enjoying themselves. This tour is exceptional due to Federico. His customer service starts before you even get on a bike. He reaches out to introduce himself and the experience. This an excellent way to explore sites in Lagos you would never see. Don’t hesitate to try this experience. The E-bikes are easy to use and Federico will help with anything you need. What you see is a one of a kind thrill!!

We had a fantastic tour with Ashe and Kumal today! They allowed us to take our time, visit the stops the order that made the most sense for us, and even helped us to take the perfect pictures. Along the way in the long car ride, they were friendly and open and gave us a chance to get to know them better in between their sightseeing knowledge shares. Would absolutely use them as guides again when coming back to the Lisbon area.
