Fun and Informative Bike Tour. - Really great way to spend a morning. Darío is an informative and fun host. His shop is easy to find. The e-bikes were well maintained. The ride was nearly all flat so wasn’t too strenuous. We learned a lot about the history of Argentina and Buenos Aires. This tour is an excellent way to see the city. We highly recommend.

Fantastic way to spend an afternoon in Buenos Aires - I really enjoyed this trip for a variety of reasons. The tour guide’s knowledge of the city was unrivalled: I learnt a lot about the city in a few hours. The chosen route was ideal, going through the many parks as well as Palermo, which is a gorgeous bohemian area within the city. The guide’s command of English was outstanding as well. I would highly recommend this tour.

The best way to sightseeing BA city - This is my first time visiting Argentina. and i made the best choice taking an e-bike tour on my firsts days. The tour was an amazing experience. Marian was the best host ever, she was really warm and her english quite clear to understand fun facts, stories and how the argentinians live and think.
Electric bikes are awesome, super comfortable and easy to use. This tour helped me a lot to know about places, and finding them later to visit on my own. They give you an earpiece to hear what you seeing while biking! One of the best experiences I've ever had. I recommend BKW experiences indeed.
