Our guide was very knowledgeable and very friendly. Highly recommended. It was a good workout going up
The communications before the tour were excellent and the meeting point in a safe, quiet residential neighbourhood easily accessed via uber. Thomas our guide was extremely engaging, well travelled and interested in us as visitors. The bikes were well serviced and expectations for the tour well managed. Thomas was courteous and mindful of us and our abilities and adjusted the tour accordingly. We loved the whole experience, views of the City and gained local knowledge along the way. Highly recommended!
Did the ride with Claudio. He was a good guide - checking in with us and showing us some of the local sights we certainly would have missed without him. He took a lot of photos as we went along and provided all these to us afterwards which was great. He could have done a bit of editing as there were 74 photos and some were not great - only to be expected We were out for an hour and fifty minutes which was a bit shorter than I expected.
I really enjoyed this tour as it gave a good overview of the park and the city. Tom is a great guide and very knowledgeable. This tour was blend of the park and historic city due to scheduling changes that day.
Very fun bike tour around parks and up San Cristobal hill. Great views and Augustin was a wonderful tour guide.
Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the ride and the views Agustín will be thrilled to hear your lovely feedback! Kind regards, Patricio.
This tour was exactly what we wanted—the green spaces of Santiago. A beautiful, well-paced ride to get a feel of Santiago. We traveled through several parks before heading to the San Cristobal hill route. Our guide Tomas was amazing! He made sure we were comfortable on the bikes and regularly stopped to check on us and explain points of interest and historical significance of certain areas. We learned so much Chilean history! He concluded the tour with an extensive list of area restaurants, bars, shops, parks and museums to tour. It was a great day and the perfect workout. Thank you Tomas and Huaso tours.

The bike tour was a ton of fun. Parque Bicentenario was wonderful with lots of animals to see. Most of the route was on dedicated bike lane so it's absolutely safe. And San Cristobal hill was just an amazing park to ride in. The view from the hill is on a class of it's own. Loved it. Shout out to my guide, Tomas, amazing guide, had a blast today, thank you

Great tour with Jaime, excellent guide, knowledgable, patient, and let you take your time. Beautiful sceneries. The biking trail is easy-moderate difficulty, that’s personal opinion. Might be hard for people who don’t bike regularly. Highly recommended.
