Medellín bike tour review covering Pueblito Paisa, downtown sights, local neighborhoods, hills, safety, value, and practical booking tips.
“Andrew was absolutely awesome! My wife and I went on his bike tour at 7PM around the city, and it was great. He was so informative, and especially since he’s a young guy, it is really nice to hear about his thoughts on Medellin as a local who grew up in a transitional period there. He did a great job relating to us to personalize the tour more. For example, he made sure to make me feel welcome through us talking about basketball on the difficult bike paths to help keep me in it. If you are taking this bike tour, please go to him!”

“If you're an outdoor enthusiast, this bike ride is for you. It's about 15kg most of which is flat or on a slight incline and mostly in bike lanes. Tomás was an exceptional guide stopping along the way to point out areas of interest and interesting facts. Biking through El Centro is a bit challenging due to the amount of foot traffic but we biked in the area during rush hour so people were just leaving work. I highly recommend this tour.”

See Bogotá by bike on a 4 to 5-hour tour through historic squares, street art, Paloquemao Market, coffee, fruit tasting, and tejo.
“The bikes were in excellent shape. Even the tires were purposely underinflated just a little to help cushion some of the bad roads on the streets of Bogota. The guide was fun and knowledgeable about the city. We visited Bolivar Plaza, a coffee roaster to learn how the coffee is made, a large fruit and meat market, and other popular areas around the city. This trip hardly cost anything but you got to see so many different site that the value was unbelievable. Total time was about 4 or 5 hours. I highly recommend this trip to others!”

We saw many local neighborhoods and tried many of the delicious local bites - my favorites were the crispy empanada and soft pandebono.
