When I saw this new tour from Biking Buenos Aires, I knew I wanted to book it. I LOVE Tigre, and I’ve been there a few times to visit friends of friends in the river delta. However, I had never been to San Isidro and had not kayaked for many, many years.
We woke to a gorgeous, sunny summer day. Olaf our guide got us on bikes, and we navigated out of the busy streets into the parks on the way to the station. The entire trip went at a slow pace, so this is a do-able trip for most people—maybe 30 km of biking, and the kayak part felt like a good workout, but wasn’t actually very far. Just right!
We had lunch at Recreo El Alcazar, which I also recommend. We had a big salad, cold beers, and a huge plate of meat with fries.
This was my most relaxed day while in Buenos Aires. I came back to the city with a sunburn, but feeling really great and ready to jump back into the tango whirl.
Tanya, Santiago, Miguelon, Elizabeth and Olaf, ready to roll!
Ready to go!
