Parcs de Madrid et visite à vélo au bord de la rivière
Description
Saviez-vous que Madrid est la capitale la plus verte d'Europe ? Pendant 3 heures, vous découvrirez le Parque del Oeste, la rivière Manzanares, et la Casa de Campo - l'un des plus grands parcs publics au monde - tous sur des pistes cyclables. Nos guides vous parleront de l’histoire du parc, de ses débuts en tant que terrain de chasse royal à son utilisation comme ligne de front pendant la guerre civile Espagnole. Vous visiterez également la demeure d’un artiste Espagnol légendaire et verrez une impressionnante chapelle avec des fresques qu’il a peintes. Cette visite est également idéale pour les enfants, car elle ne passe pas par le centre-ville ou n’emprunte pas les rues animées.

Itinéraire
Bravo Bike propose des circuits à vélo à Madrid depuis 1999. En tant que l'un des fabricants de vélos les plus expérimentés de la ville, nous sommes fiers de notre sélection de Madrid City Tours, ainsi que d'excursions à vélo guidées dans les régions environnantes, notamment Ségovie et La Granja, El Escorial et Ávila, Tolède, Aranjuez et Chinchón. Nos circuits sont parfaitement adaptés aux événements d’incitation aux entreprises et aux excursions pour les multinationales, les écoles et les universités. Pour tous nos circuits, nous avons sélectionné les meilleurs hôtels et les sites, villes et monuments les plus attrayants et les plus intéressants à visiter, en prêtant attention aux besoins et aux désirs de nos clients. Nos guides touristiques, ainsi que toute notre équipe, ne ménageront aucun effort pour veiller à ce que votre seul objectif soit de vous amuser pleinement.
Nous longeons le côté est du palais royal jusqu'à l'Opéra en profitant d'une vue magnifique sur le côté est du palais et de là, nous conduisons jusqu'à son entrée principale. La vue depuis la cour sur les montagnes voisines est spectaculaire.
Nous descendons lentement jusqu'au bord de la rivière Manzanares, mais avant de nous arrêter au jardin royal Campo del Moro, où vous aurez une vue impressionnante sur le côté ouest du palais. Petite promenade dans le jardin.
Nous longeons la rivière Manzanares sur une voie nouvellement construite au sud de l'abattoir Matadero de Madrid. C'est désormais un point de rencontre culturel. Il nous faut environ une demi-heure pour y arriver en vélo. Nous avons la possibilité d'y visiter le palais de cristal en ayant suffisamment de temps pour visiter la serre.
Sur le chemin du retour le long de la rivière en direction du parc de Casa de Campo, apparaît le plus ancien pont traversant la rivière Manzanares. De là, nous pénétrons dans le plus grand parc public appelé Casa de Campo, ancien terrain de chasse des rois espagnols.
Une fois entrés dans le parc, nous nous dirigeons vers le lac (lago en espagnol) où les clients peuvent prendre des photos de la ville.
Sur le chemin du retour, nous nous arrêtons à la chapelle de Sait Anton où est enterré le peintre espagnol Goya. Il peint également en 1798 le plafond de la chapelle en moins de 5 mois, un véritable trésor.
Depuis la chapelle de San Antonio, nous parcourons la dernière montée à travers le parc Ouest en remontant doucement jusqu'au Templo égyptien de Debod pour prendre quelques photos.
Fin de la balade à vélo dans nos locaux.

We had a fantastic time on this park and river bike tour in Madrid and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city. The route was absolutely beautiful, taking us through peaceful parks and along the river with stunning scenery the entire way. It was such a refreshing way to see a different side of Madrid away from the busy streets, with plenty of green space, open views, and scenic stops along the way. Our guide, Remy, was truly outstanding. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Madrid, the parks, and the river area, sharing interesting history and local insights that made everything we saw even more meaningful. His professionalism was excellent from start to finish—well-organized, attentive to the group, and always making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe on the ride. Remy also had a great personality, with a friendly, relaxed style and a good sense of humor that made the tour even more enjoyable. He kept things engaging without ever feeling rushed, and you could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. Overall, this was a highlight of our time in Madrid—beautiful scenery, a fun and easy ride, and a fantastic guide. We would absolutely do it again and highly recommend it to others!
We all had a beautiful morning riding with Casper. Our trip took us by the Royal Palace, Catherdral Almudena and the plaza by the palace first. Then we proceeded to the area west of the palace filled with parks and trails. All along the way Casper enriched us with the history of each area we stopped at. It was a wonderful 3 hour ride. So nice to get away to the more peaceful area right outside the city, riding around the parks especially Casa de Campo was gorgeous. We highly recommend this excursion. At the end we stopped for a wonderful glass of cider and snack at a local restaurant.
Many thanks for your complimentary review and above all for your warm recommendation. We are delighted that our Parks and Riverside Bike Tour was so enjoyable. The City of Madrid has invested much time and money in making the city friendlier for cyclists, so apart from our standard city bike tour, we are pleased to organise private city tours tailored to meet the particular interests of prospective clients. Please contact us with your inquiries. Hopefully, you will see fit to return to Madrid, and we would very much like to welcome you again. With all good wishes from the Bravo Bike Team.
We booked a park tour ride. The owner of the business was the tour guide. My wife is not an experienced rider as was a little slower. The tour guide did not wait for her at a set of traffic lights. I waited for my wife to catch up. We were left behind and could not find the group. Eventually the tour guide found us. I told him that he should always count the number of riders in the group at each stop. His response was my wife was too slow. I could not believe his response. No apology and he was very arrogant. A lady also fell off her bike resulting in grazing to her arm. The tour guide did not appear to have a first aid kit. You would think this would be mandatory requirement. He offered her a bandage once we returned to the bike shop. I am an experienced bike rider and the level of care provided by this company is poor. I would not recommend this bike tour due to the poor safety standards.
We had a wonderful tour around all the parks in Madrid. Our tour guide Casper was kind, knowledgeable, engaging and overall a wonderful tour guide. I highly recommend the Park and River tour, you will see areas that you might not know existed! What a great way to see Madrid.
Thank you so much for your excellent review! Our Parks and River Tour offers a unique perspective of the capital by exploring incredible green spaces along the Manzanares River, where you can enjoy cycling without traffic. We also cycle through the enormous public land park, a former hunting ground of the Spanish royal family, providing great views of Madrid, including the Royal Palace and Cathedral. On our way back, we climb through the West Park, overlooking once more our route from the Egyptian Temple of Debod. We hope you'll join us again for another cycling adventure in the future! All the best.
Loved this tour with my family, Kaspar was an amazing & knowledgeable guide. We got to see so much of beautiful Madrid, highly recommended!
Thank you for your kind recommendation! We're glad to hear that your family enjoyed exploring the less-traveled paths, the Manzanares River, and the expansive Casa de Campo park with its beautiful lake. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another of our diverse cycling experiences in the future. Best regards and take care.
Really good tour of the other side of Madrid with our guide Casper. Small personal tour with a very engaging and knowledgeable guide. We saw the parks, lakes, rivers and green spaces of Madrid that you would only really find if you stepped away from the busy central district, and we now understand the Madrid that the locals love so much.
Bundle up if it’s a chilly day. Remy was a fantastic guide. We really enjoyed his company and the tour around the city. 10/10 would recommend.
Thank you, Anna, for your great review. Indeed, we had some rainy days and lower temperatures. Madrid is 650 m above sea level, therefore it can be quite chilly during the morning tours. We hope to see you again on one of our many bicycling tours. All the best and take care.
Alvaro is a top notch bike tour guide. Very tuned into the diverse needs and skill levels of a multi-age nine person family group. Very knowledgeable on safe bike routes as a Madrid native. Bikes and helmets were in good repair. Also excellent deep knowledge of relevant art, history, urban development, politics, etc. Overall top notch and highly recommended!! We liked it so much we did a second tour with Alvaro!!
Thank you very much for your excellent comment and we appreciate it very much that you joined us on two different days getting to know our city under the guidance of Alvaro. We invite you to join us on one of our multi-day cycle tours we offer throughout Spain! All the best in 2025. Take care.
We enjoyed our tour in the parks in the morning. The guide was very knowledgeable and spoke very good English. As Madrid is not flat we first went downhill to the river and on the way back we had to climb but it wasn't very difficult. However I would recommend e-bikes for the ones that are not used to this.
Thank you very much Anca for your excellent review. We are happy you enjoyed our experience with your family cycling along the river, the parkland of Casa de Campo and finally bicycling back through the West park. Our e-bikes make it easy to explore the vast parkland of Casa de Campo. All the best and take care!
Excellent tour of the city sights with great commentary from a charismatic, funny and very knowledgeable guide. I especially loved the tour around Casa de Campo. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Madrid! Thanks Alvaro!
