“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!”
