      Great biking day!
      Biking was fun around the city on the bike routes. Pedro spoke English well, and had lots of information for us. Great day! And we got to ride the subway back! It was optional, but I jumped at chance because I love subways, and my knee was starting to bother me at the end.

      Great way to see São Paulo!
      I went on a ride with Arthur today and the bike tour was in English. It was such a great time to see many sites in the city of São Paulo! We went longer than three hours - Arthur is very proud of his city, its culture, and its history. I learned a lot, got a great workout, and saw much more of the city than I ever could have walking around on my own. The bike is an 8-speed hybrid, easy to ride, and perfect for this tour type. São Paulo is very bike friendly with bike lanes everywhere. The stop for lunch in the old town area was a really cool local restaurant with local food available. At the end, Arthur provided a lot of local recommendations (via WhatsApp) like a good concierge. Definitely recommend!

      A rich day in SP
      I had a great tour.. we went across very different neighborhoods and saw a lot. Jardims, Pinheiros, Ibirapuera park, Beco de Batman. Pedro who was the guide for this tour, was extremely nice and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the city of SP and Brazilian history... it was rich and it really made my day 🙏🏻🙏🏻

      Bike tour with Lucas for my first time in Brazil!
      Lucas was an amazing host, very patient and very informative. You can tell he takes pride in his work because of that, I feel like I learned a lot about the city and got to see a lot of it.

      Great way to see some of downtown Sao Paulo on a limited time budget!
      I thoroughly enjoyed the bike tour of downtown Sao Paulo with Lucas! He spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable of the area and history. I only had a half day for exploring downtown Sao Paulo and I felt this was the best use of my limited time there. I felt much safer riding with the tour group vs trying to rent a bike and tour the area on my own. The bikes worked well and were comfortable enough for the 3.5 hours we were out. I also got some great Insta360 footage of the ride. I'm so glad I decided to go on this tour!

      A good option to cover a few miles.
      The small cafe that we meet to begin the tour is quaint with offers of fresh made cakes, coffee and teas. The tour was organized, our guide was full of historical info and tid bits of today's life in Sao Paulo. A doable ride however you must be agile to ride between pedestrians And cars

      Best Introduction to São Paolo
      This was the best tour. For my first day in São Paolo, I saw so much and got great recommendations for food and things to do in the city next time. I would take this tour again tomorrow! Arthur was a great tour guide and the meeting place had great drinks and atmosphere. Get there early to enjoy a coffee and pão de queijo. I also recommend taking the tour on a weekend because of the markets happening in the city. Highly recommend!!

      Amazing tour of São Paulo
      Arthur was amazing!!! He knows a lot of thing about São Paulo, Brasil history and street art. We really enjoy this tour. As we were just my husband and myself, we have been able to discuss a lot of things with him. We recommand this tour for sure.

    The tour through the city center was super interesting. I was with Arthur and he told me so much about the history of Sao Paulo, it was a great journey through time. Even though we drove through supposedly more dangerous parts of the city and the traffic was crazy, I felt safe and well looked after.
    I can definitely recommend the tour to discover the old town of Sao Paulo, the history and different parts of the city are incredibly exciting. During the tour you can feel Arthur's enthusiasm for the diversity of the city and he immediately gives you some recommendations for the rest of your time in Sao Paulo.

    Pedro was an amazing guide and really knew his stuff. We spent several hours biking all over São Paulo with frequent stops and breaks along the way. The bikes were more than up for the task and amazingly, the route never got too hilly. If you’ve got a few hours to spend in São Paulo, I highly recommend this bike tour. 👍

    It's an excellent idea to explore Sao Paulo by bike, as it has quite an extensive biking infrastructure and has many key sights for tourists spread out over a large area. It's good that Urban Bike SP carried on with the tour though I was the only one, which made it even better as I basically was on a private tour. Lucas is an excellent guide who shared a lot of interesting information about his city that most tourists probably would not know (very fitting given the name of the tour) while also ensuring safety and that I was prepared for each step of our route. He also collated for me a list of recommendations based on where we passed by and our conversations, and also made an impromptu stop for me to try a Brazilian brigadeiro after I had asked a question about it. Highly recommended overall.

    Lucas provided a fantastic bike tour. His English was perfect. His interest, knowledge and enthusiasm for his city was clearly apparent and shared with us. Information on history, culture and architecture was interesting. As our first time to Sao Paulo and Brazil he provided us additional recommendations for places of interest and restaurants not on the tour, as well as foods to enjoy during our travels. A perfect introduction. Thanks Lucas!
    This company made the excursion easy with clear and timely communication during scheduling and confirmation. Highly recommended!

    I had a great time. We were a small group, our guide Lucas had a lot of time to answer any questions we had. We visited a variety of places - urban art, bicycle streets, historical houses, a market… 10/10 would book again.

    This was a brilliant experience. Lucas is an engaging, energetic, friendly and knowledgable guide. The bikes were well-maintained with good gears; the tour was perfectly paced. We covered about 18km in total, with various stops including to see brilliant street art. Much of the tour is on cycle lanes; cycling down the middle of Paulista Avenue must be the very best way to see it! We over-ran a bit just because we were having fun & talking; Lucas was generous with his time & knowledge. Very highly recommended.

    I had an amazing time on the bike tour with UrbanbikeSp! Since I was the only participant, it turned into a private tour, which made the experience even more special. Lucas was a fantastic guide—his English is excellent, and he knows so much about the city, sharing fascinating stories throughout the ride. We stopped at beautiful places like the monastery and a church.
    the bikes were in excellent condition, making the ride smooth and enjoyable. Lucas also gave me great recommendations for restaurants and cafés, which added a nice personal touch.
    I Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting

    Highly recommend this bike tour - really quick and easy way to get around and see a lot of downtown Sao Paulo including some incredible street art. Juliana was fabulous and it really felt like we were getting the real deal Sao Paulo rather than just an overview for tourists. Can't recommend highly enough.
