Biking Montevideo

Skip the big bus tours and see Montevideo like a local with this exciting bike tour. You and your small group will set out on a 23-kilometer ride along relatively flat roads through various barrios (neighborhoods) and public squares. Your Uruguayan guide will provide you with all the necessary equipment, including reflective vests for your safety. Along the way, you'll learn the city's secrets as you survey well-known sights.

You will pass by three major squares along the way, each of which represents the emergence of Uruguayan social life, as well as the Solis Theatre, the nation's oldest and most well-known theater. Other highlights include the historical Cuidadela entrance gate and the 150-story Punta Carretas Lighthouse, standing since 1876. Visit the colorful Mercado del Puerto, a huge port market with unique local arts and crafts, musicians, and a vast array of parrillas (steak restaurants). Gaze out over the water as you make your way back to the Ciudad Vieja via the beautiful coastline road known as La Rambla.
