Cycle through Miraflores and Barranco on a 3 to 4 hour guided ride, stopping at Huaca Pucllana, the Pacific coast, Larcomar, the Parapuerto, and Bridge of Sighs. Guides such as Manny, Giancarlo, Alonso, and Manuel lead rides in English, Spanish, or Italian. Expect traffic, modest hills, and bikes that should be checked before departure.

“Bikes were a little old and not in the best shape. Our guide was 20 minutes late and then proceeded to take another 20 minutes bringing the bikes out. Our tour was to include a complimentary bottle of water - which we didn’t receive. We were encouraged to have an espresso while we were waiting - I thought this would be complimentary since our tour was so late getting started instead I was charged 5 soles for a cold cup of expresso. Overall Manny was a decent guide and his English was very good. Unfortunately out of the group of 7 - 3 of them were not experienced bike riders…”

“Great tour. Get away from the traffic whilst still seeing the city. Much better than sitting in a traffic jam on a cramped minivan. The bikes were of a fantastic standard and safety helmets provided. Nice stop after Jesus hill for cold drinks. Kral the guide gave a nice amount of information and made any road crossings super safe. I’m not a bike rider but made it round the route OK apart from pushing up Jesus hill.”

“Really fun tour. Our guide was great, gave us lots of interesting facts about the neighborhood. The tour takes the full 4 hours but it's not too tiring as there are breaks in between to explore the neighborhoods. The guide was also very flexible and asked us if we wanted to skip or spend more time in any location. The tour was also very safe as most routes had bike lanes and if the road didn't have a bike lanes the guide ensured that everyone was comfortable riding. Cycles were in good condition too. Highly recommend!”
