Elektrische fiets stadstour en bergroute

Great mix of riding through parts of the city and getting a history lesson. Then going up into the Sierra Madres mountain. You need to know how to ride a bike because the mountain part is a unkept dirt road. which is windy. The city and parts of the mountain are on cobbled roads. My family and I loved every part. We stopped for lunch on the mountain at an outdoor restaurant with really good food and then was able to swim in natural spring pools. It has been the best part of our trip so far. The guides Juan and Brian were excellent! They were engaging and looked out for us. Thank you! A+

Best tour/excursion we did in PV. Hugo was knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and although it was only Alexander’s second day, he will be a great guide. The ride through town and neighborhoods were scenic and culturally enlightening. Riding to the mountain area, through the canyon and following the river was absolutely stunning! At the turn around point, there was a gorgeous pool and river to soak and cool off…we didn’t know about the pools, so bring a swim suit towel. Having above average biking skills, we realized this activity might be a challenge for the average person.

I have rented electric bikes in other cities around the world before. This was my most challenging ride ever. My friend and I started at the bike shop where we met our two tour guides and got our bikes and helmets. The bikes have fat tires so they can traverse rough terrain and sandy terrain. There was just the two of us riders and we had two guides. This is a very challenging ride and should not be taken lightly. I recommend you only do it if you are very very competent on a bicycle. I have ridden, bicycles, motorcycles, and ATVs, my entire life, and I needed all those experiences to handle this ride. You also need to be in decent shape. You will be paddling up the hills with the assist of the electric motor. The mountain hills are loose, winding and Steep in places. I I would absolutely not take children on this ride. And I would only take a teenager if he was experienced in mountain biking through difficult terrain. You will be riding on very rough cobblestones through the city. You cross very narrow, bridges and will ride close to some drop offs. Once you get to the mountains, the soil is loose, gravel and powdery dirt. The electric bike helps you get up the hills, but you still have to pedal hard to get up them. Your ride ends up at a bar in the mountains, which is a nice place to cool down an and get a drink. They have some river pools below that you can go check out if you feel like taking a hike. We were too tired from the bike ride up to check them out. The area is very pleasant but a little more expensive than in town. The road back is easier on the legs because you’re mostly you’re going down the hill. Just one big hill to climb. But the roads down ate loose gravel so you have to be very careful. Make sure your brakes work good before you leave the bike shop, you will need them coming down the mountain. If you go too fast you could crash or miss a turn. Someone out of control coming down the hill could severely injured themselves. Once you get back to town, you’re back on the rough cobblestones until you get to the Malecon. From here it is smooth sailing back to the bike shop. I told the guys they need to plan a 20 mile circuit through the city, avoiding cobblestones where possible. It would be less painful and a lot more fun. Our guides were very friendly and helpful. We were glad there were only two of us and that we had two guides. My friends battery died just before we got to the top of the mountain. One of the guides switched bicycles with him and took it back to the shop while we went to the top. I don’t regret doing this bike ride, It was definitely an adventure and got to see some beautiful parts of Puerto Vallarta we had not seen before. However my butt may be sore for a couple of days. ????
