“One of my best experiences in Santiago”
Our excellent english speaking guide Andrés started the tour with very interesting, non schoolbook, facts and visits to various locations in the heart of Santiago.
Everything from personal experiences of the dictatorship to why Chile is the only country in South America that uses the word "Ja" for "Yes" and to some nerdy facts about how the entire dome of the Bellas Artes Museum was shipped rivet by rivet from Belgium, because that construction technology was not available in Chile at the time.
After this we climbed (by bike) the hill of San Cristobal to an absolutely speachless view of Santiago. Truly a must see. We where offered a homecooked meal with a delicious soup, sandwiches and some treats.
What I liked about this tour is that it was so personal and passionate. I felt more like being guided around the city by close friends than being on a tour.
Discovering Santiago by bike in this fashion with authentic home cooked meal makes me highly recommend Bike Tours. Will definetely come again for other adventures.
“Excellent, stress free way to tour Santiago”
Emma and Javi guided us through Santiago on well maintained bikes, with safety always in mind.
We found the tour to be very well thought out, and they took us to areas where we would have never wondered on our own. We already thought Santiago was a wonderful city, but now got to see areas well off the beaten path that were not in any travel books we had read. Both Emma and Javi shared the rich history and meaning of all the areas we visited.
Lunch was hand made, locally sourced, and was excellent. We would do this tour again in a heartbeat!
