A wonderful way to start our visit to Madrid - It was a fabulous tour with Sergio, who adapted the ride to meet the interests and abilities of the small group. We saw many beautiful and interesting sites across Madrid’s Parks and Riverways. Highly recommended!

Extremely interesting guide - I went with my two daughters (21&22). We all loved this tour. Our guide was an historian- so knowledgeable and interesting. We saw parts of Madrid that were new to us (I’ve been there 3x but always find new places!). It was the perfect mix of biking and stopping to hear cool things about the city. The tour lasted 3 hours.

Madrid by Bike - Our guide Caspar was exemplary, we had a great time exploring around the pedestrianised centre before cycling along the river and through the West Park and around before he showed us a great spot for lunch. Highly recommend!

Caspar is a legend - Can’t recommend highly enough, a great tour, amazing and friendly guide. Great knowledge, raincoats and ponchos provided, and little bike bags attached so you don’t need to take a rucksack. Caspar took lots of pictures and shared them freely along with his local knowledge on restaurants and museums. If you want a bike tour you HAVE to book through Bravo Bikes! Thank you so much.
