Highlights
DISCOVER THE SURPRISES OF SANTIAGO HIGHLIGHTS AND DOWNTOWN BY BIKE!
Join us as we head out into the green spaces and historical highlights of downtown Santiago. Shady parks, hip barrios, and insights into santiaguino (someone from Santiago, Chile) culture will make for a memorable afternoon. Downtown’s afternoon highlights of big trees, skyscrapers, and street side kiosks for sopaipillas are for the urban adventurers. Beautiful parks, architecture, and the heart of Santiago are absolute must-sees for anyone visiting Chile’s capital city.
The La Bicicleta Verde team knows that the best way to get around the capital is by bike. Our passionate green gurus will take you to where culture, politics, and fun collide. We can guarantee that you’ll have an amazing time with our team — our 10+ years of experience and thousands of happy travelers can vouch for that.
