The e-bikes were fantastic. They really kicked on when going up a hill. I am 64 and my husband is 72. He is a runner but I don’t exercise. It was very little “exercise” lol. Our guide was very nice and smart about the area.
Thank you for your wonderful review! 😊 We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the e-bikes and that they made the hills so easy and comfortable. It's great to know that your guide's knowledge helped make the experience even more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you both back again soon! 🚴♂️✨
Loved my guide. He was very careful and patient with me considering it was my first time riding an e-bike. I really appreciated how he would let me have moments to myself to look around and enjoy. All the information was very interesting too! You get to see places that you maybe wouldn’t see on a regular tour and also the Retiro Park is definitely worth exploring on bike rather than foot. Definitely recommend!!!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 😊 We’re really happy to hear that your guide made you feel comfortable and supported during your first e-bike experience, while also giving you time to enjoy and explore at your own pace. It’s great to know you enjoyed the information and discovering special places like Retiro Park by bike. Thank you for the recommendation — we’d love to see you again! 🚴♂️✨
A great visit supervised by François, a super guide, caring with the children (and the older ones:-)), who commented on the city during these 2h30 walk that passed very quickly. An original and perfectly adapted way to cover as many places as possible to see. I recommend to make this visit at the very beginning of the stay because it then allows to return to the spots covered by being perhaps more selective according to the number of days that we have on site. Even by 5 degrees we really loved the experience! thank you François;-) 12 kms between city, park, squares and monuments...... small advice of an "anti-electric bike": take the electric bike option! because Madrid goes up and down and in the middle of the main avenues, the dynamics of the pedal stroke was very appreciated:-) thank you to the manager for advising us and making us benefit from this comfort. You understand: recommended activity 300%:-)
Un immense merci pour ce superbe retour 😊 Nous sommes ravis que la visite avec François ait été une si belle expérience pour toute la famille, même par temps frais ! C’est exactement notre objectif : découvrir un maximum de lieux de façon agréable et adaptée, surtout en début de séjour. Merci aussi pour le conseil sur le vélo électrique 😉 Au plaisir de vous revoir, et bravo pour ces 12 km bien mérités 🚴♂️✨
Amazing guide who was very friendly. We had a private experience with just the two of us, so this experience was exactly what we were looking for. Our guide was knowledgable but also kept things to our level and made the tour fun. I enjoyed biking around the city and felt that the 90-120 minute length is ideal. We saw everything we wanted to see without the tour being too long or becoming redundant/repetitive. The value is incredible and I am still shocked at how cheap this tour was given its quality and how great our guide was. He even turned down a tip at the end and insisted we don't try to pay him anything more than the booking fee. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Madrid and learn its history. Great value from a group looking to grow its customer base!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review! 🌟 We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the private tour and that our guide made the experience both fun and informative while keeping it at the perfect pace. It’s great that the length and value of the tour fit exactly what you were looking for. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back soon for another ride! 🚴♂️😊
