Tour Details
Bike Punta del Este
Take this Uruguay, Punta del Este guided bicycle tour and you'll agree: few places can boast the beauty, natural and man-made, that Punta del Este offers.
Few resorts in South America rival Punta del Este for glamour. It might be geographically located in Uruguay, but it's where the glitterati and elite of Buenos Aires make their homes for the summer. This beautiful Uruguayan resort area has become an exquisite place to see.
On this tour you will enjoy a bike ride on flat areas that demand a low level of strength. Your guide will provide you with all the necessary equipment, including reflective vests for your safety. You will be guided along safe paths and visit Mansa Beach, where sea lions can be observed. You will also see the city's symbolic lighthouse, which dates back to 1860. The lighthouse is 147 feet tall, and the crystal panels that are part of its illumination system were brought from France.
Another highlight of the tour is the church Nuestra Senora de la Candelaria, a beautiful sky-blue and white Victorian structure.
Other points of interest are: the Four Seas point, Punta Salina (where the famous and only navy battle of River Plate between German and British ships took place), English beach, Emir beach, Punta Vapor (where the first mass was held in 1516), and the famous monument known as "The Hand."
Guests will be able to stop along the way at every attraction to allow for photo opportunities. Punta del Este's charm, nature, well-kept gardens adorned with colorful flowers, and the Atlantic Ocean's beautiful sandy beaches make it a perfect location for a smooth bike ride.
Please Note: This tour operates rain or shine; except in cases where a yellow alert/thunderstorm warning is issued.
