About this tour
Cycle Madrid's riverfront and largest urban park on this two-hour guided tour. Start along the Manzanares, where locals gather in its riverside park, then head across to Casa de Campo—a sprawling former royal hunting ground turned weekend retreat. You'll navigate both waterside paths and tree-lined avenues while picking up insider knowledge of how madrileños actually spend their leisure time, far from the city centre crowds.

What to expect
You'll spend two hours on a bike with a guide who knows the routes well. The ride is moderate pace—no racing—and designed so you can actually see and soak in your surroundings. Starting at the Manzanares, you'll feel the rhythm of local weekend life: families, joggers, riverside cafés. The transition into Casa de Campo is gentle; the park is vast and leafy, and you'll pick routes that avoid heavy traffic. Expect to stop occasionally for the guide to point out landmarks or history. Groups are kept small enough that you're not herded; the guide adjusts to your fitness level.
