We’ll meet at Armenia 2269 in the heart of Palermo Soho. After setting you up with a comfortable bike and helmet, we’ll go over the plan for the ride and a few basic safety tips before hitting the road together.

As we roll through this luxurious neighborhood, you’ll spot some of the most impressive mansions in town. It's a quiet and refined area, with lots of stories hidden behind the elegant façades.
Here we'll stop to admire this giant metal flower that opens and closes with the sun. It's one of the city's most iconic sculptures, and we'll take a few minutes to talk about its symbolism and the area around it.
Right next to the flower, this imposing neoclassical building is home to the University’s Law School. We’ll stop briefly to take in the architecture and hear how important this place is for local students.
We'll give you some free time to explore inside on foot, while we wait outside with the bikes. The cemetery is like a museum in the open air, with impressive tombs and sculptures. We’ll give you tips on what to look for—including the famous resting place of Evita. Visiting the cemetery is not mandatory you could also spend some time in the area, on the park, having a cup of coffee, or exploring the weekend market.
This is one of the city’s favorite green spaces. We’ll cycle through its lakes and shady tree-lined paths, and you’ll get to see how porteños enjoy their weekends—jogging, relaxing, or sharing mates on the grass.
We’ll stop at this rose garden inside the park and give you a short break to walk around and take photos. With its colorful flowers, little bridges, and charming views, it’s a beautiful spot to soak up the peaceful side of BA.
