The best way to explore Lisbon!

There is no better way to enjoy a city than riding a bike. In our tours you don´t need to wear Lycra to ride through the city, most people wear comfortable and relaxing clothes, it´s about getting to know new places while doing some workout. When we designed  this tour we wanted it  to be the most friendly Lisbon bike tour. Cycling Lisbon will help you out offering the best, fastest and funniest way to get to know Lisbon with experienced and knowledgeable guides.

Our Lisbon bike tour will take you to the traditional spots of the old city. Cycling through the most fantastic and remarkable viewpoints of the city while you will be hearing funny episodes that will ignite your imagination about Lisbon’s interesting facts. As it was said by a Cycling Lisbon fan: “This tour is about smiles, not miles”.

The bikes are according to the journey. You can have fun the traditional way, meaning pedaling in short and flat routes, or enjoy the longer tours with e-bikes, called “electric-assist” because that’s what it is; a boost when you need it, and a bike when you don’t. Either ways are worthy, that we have no doubts, and we do believe that you will have a blast riding with our guides in our picked routes. When we were asked about the effort we puted to come up with our routes we simply replied: “not much, afterall it´s our backyard and the place we have been living since we were born…”

The bike tour ends in Belém which used to be the main gate for the loaded vessels coming into Europe. This Lisbon bike tour is certainly an exciting way of getting to know the highlights of the city while cycling from the old town to the discoveries district and along the river.

Some people may call it cheating, we call it fun and no sweating!

But if you want to explore one of the best coast lines in the country, what about a FULL DAY TOUR IN ARRÁBIDA with an electric bike? This bike tour is the combination of a fantastic cycling route, through Arrábida  roads with its clear turquoise waters and a swim or dip in the recently elected Best Beach in Europe 2017. Visiting one of the best markets in the world and touring a winery in one of the oldest wine regions in the country. Riding our super e-bikes to witness the contrast given by hills, castles, vast estuary, vineyards, fish market, all this so distinct and away from Lisbon’s urban rhythm.
