Great bike tour - we got to see plenty of the city on the tour with appropriate stops and good information from by the guide. Some confusion about the start point in the details provided but that didn’t impact on the tour. Recommend.
Great tour, starting 10min walk from cruise terminal. Guide José is the most friendly and helpful guide you will find! He's a local passionate about showing you the city he clearly loves and was born in. The bikes themselves were so easy to ride and there are lots of cycle lanes in the city so it was a really enjoyable ride.
Great way to see and experience this beautiful city. José had lots of interesting facts and it was good fun! We saw places we'd never see on our own or on a bus tour. And we felt very energetic too! Highly recommend.
Great tour for a combination of fun, overview of the city and insights. Old town, new town, history and culture. Thank you José
A great 4 hours spent on the cycle tour around Las Palmas with our guide Jose. If you want culture, coffee, bananas and smiles then this is the tour for you. We were a group of 6 (4 UK, 1 Spanish, 1 French) and what a great group they were, both friendly and chatty. At the start Jose does a great job with introductions and talking through the plan before easing into the ride. Visiting all of the main points of interest and with lots of stops inc coffee, toilets, drinks. You don’t need to be super fit as nearly all of the ride is on the flat. The bikes are fine but the ‘bottom/bum’ does ache toward the end 😂. And finally Jose who does a fabulous job. His passion and pride in Las Palmas and Gran Canaria is evident in the way he shares his stories, so lovely to hear. He is clearly very well known and liked in the area as there were numerous handshakes, cuddles and shouts as we rode through the streets of Las Palmas. We are delighted we did the tour.
We had a lovely and very learnfull bycicletrip. Our excursion guide José knew a lot about Las Palmas, showing us all the highlights and giving us the opportunity to taste local specialities. In addition,. Thanks a lot!
We had our bike tour today with Jose. It was a brilliant experience and he was a wonderful guy. Lots of information, lots of fun and made us all feel very safe. I would highly recommend this tour with Jose!!
A well organised and interesting tour of the city. A fabulous, knowledgeable guide who was very clearly passionate about his island, its culture and its history. Very well shared and verbal feedback given throughout the 4 hour tour. Some great little stops on the way meeting some local people and through that really providing a great engagement opportunity. Your is also 99.5% on the flat so although we do cycle lots if you don’t the route is easily navigated. Great tour - thoroughly recommended a great host
This is a great way to see and learn about Las Palmas. Josie was a fabulous host, well humoured, informative and super friendly. The bikes were great and easy to ride and the tour easy to follow. English speaking was good. Highly recommended
José is a very friendly guide and he wants you to have a good time. The first part of the tour, at the old town, was at a very, very calm pace, with intermittent walking and little cycling, but that picked up when we went into Triana. That’s when the cycling and the sightseeing really started, with visits to different neighborhoods and the waterfront. It was wonderful to see the different sides of Las Palmas and we really enjoyed ourselves.
Had an amazing guided tour with Jose, including 2 tapas tastings. He gave us a fantastic tour including lots of information on the history and explanations of the different districts in his city.
Very interesting tour with an excellent guide! I recommend this trip to everyone who wants to discover Las Palmas in a different and pleasant way!
Our guide, José, was a friendly and charming man who seemed to know everybody in Las Palmas. His tour incorporated the old town, the English section, the beach, the harbour and more. The Churros with hot chocolate and local coffee in a local market (for locals) was fabulous. The tour was not demanding with lots of stops to highlight the architecture and history of the buildings. There were very few inclines so even a not so fit person could do it easily providing they can cycle (like my wife). Thank you again for a fantastic day. We highly recommend this tour.
Nice tour with a pleasant guide who can tell a lot about the city and the island. Ideal, because you can see the highlights of the city including stops while cycling. The old part is beautiful!
Fun bike ride led by José, the enthusiastic guide who showed the beautiful places of Las Palmas. With fun stories and facts about Las Palmas and Gran Canaria. We had a nice mixed company.
De leuke Spaanse in Las Palmas geboren begeleider José spreekt uitstekend Engels. Daar kan menig toerist niet aan tippen 😃
Tour booked ... received several times proposal to take place on other day ... refused as we had other business planned ... finally proposal 1 hour early and only 3 instead of promised 4 ... day of the tour itself when we were ready to leave cancelled under mom illness ... immediately say that tour cannot take place???
Cette activité était vraiment incroyable. Notre guide était adorable. Il nous a fait découvrir Las Palmas grâce aux vélos. C'est très pratique car nous allons partout même dans des petites ruelles ou passages improbables. Il nous a emmené chez un ami restaurateur authentique c'était génial. Nous avons mangé des churros excellents au chocolat et nous avons visité une partie du marché avec de nombreux fruits. Nous avons vu aussi les 2 parties de la ville, l'ancienne et la ville moderne puis nous avons vu une plage magnifique. Je vous conseille vivement cette expérience car c'est la meilleure façon de visiter Las Palmas avec un guide extraordinaire. Merci beaucoup. 🤗🤗🤗 Sylvie
Goede indruk van de stad gekregen en mooie uitleg van de gids. Leuk om de stad te ontdekken. Fietsafstand was beperkt, ca 15 km.
leuke fietstocht goede vriendelijke gids goede fietsen met versnellingen lekker wat gegeten onderweg
Bra översikt av Las Palmas och historien hur staden byggdes upp. Det var inte så mycket backar så cykling gick lätt. Guiden gav tips på restauranger ect. efter vägen.
We had a very nice bike ride in Las Palmas. A pleasant stop at the market. José is an enthusiastic and caring guy, who conveys the information with a sense of humor!!
gewoon doen, en laat je verrassen door de verhalen van José, de grootste ambassadeur van las palmas Fijne en afwisselende tocht, vol leuke ontdekkingingen.
You simply must have done this here. You see Las Palmas from the point of view of Canary José, in my opinion the best ambassador of the island and who knows exactly half of everyone we met on our tour. A varied tour that everyone can do, with nice stops and many fascinating stories from José, a Canary through and through. Unfortunately we were not able to follow his tapas tour, but it is highly recommended!
The bike guide canceled the night before the bike tour because he would have a private tour. The alternatives offered were not the same as booked! He even asked us if we wanted to cancel so he didn’t get a “penalty” and was even very compelling. Of course, we didn't do that! So what we have been looking forward to has not happened at all.
Tour per la città vecchia e nuova. Mostra zone e racconta cose che sarebbero sfuggite visitandola da soli. Jose molto simpatico, cortese e familiare. Abbiamo anche fatto un aperitivo con tapas caratteristico. Gita dinamica in bici. Consigliatissimo!
We really liked the four-hour Vermut tour with Chema and Jose. Our group consisted of 14 very open and friendly Canarios and both of us Germans :-). Chema provided us with all the information during the tour in English and speaks good German. The tour with bright red bikes was entertaining with 3 stops where we could try different kinds of guesswork and tapas. Especially nice was our visit to a small pub where a group of older Canarios played live traditional music. A great day with many beautiful impressions of Las Palmas! We will come back!!
