As first time visitors to Mexico City, we wanted bikes to spend a day seeing as much as possible…read more For only 400 pesos (about $20) we rented two bikes and a lock for an ENTIRE day. My Spanish is ok at best and it was quick and easy, we were in and out in five minutes. Pay up front and simply leave a driver's license as collateral. Would recommend if you want to explore the massive Bosque de Chapultepec nearby, there's no way to truly see it otherwise. Easy to find, great location in a great neighborhood. Don't expect a smooth-shifting $1000 road bike but it's better than the heavy bike-share bikes in U.S. cities and always better to support an independent bike shop.

They will hold your ID to ensure you return the bikes but are not strict about return time. Just arrive before close at 6 or 7pm. Ask for a bike lock free of charge.

The service here is atrocious. Post-Covid, once stores were allowed to re-open in CDMX, this place…read morequoted me a two week turn-around time for a simple tune-up. I brought it to another bike shop in La Roma neighborhood and they took one day to do the same job. When I've stopped in here just for CO2 or other simple needs nobody approaches you for assistance. Instead, they leave you on your own to find what you are looking for while the employees stand around talking to one another. At one point, I considered buying a new bike here, but my boss' negative experience was enough to turn me off. He agreed to the business ordering him a bike on display in the store. The store charged him, then notified him the size/color scheme he ordered was not available. They then refused to reimburse him, at which time he file a dispute with his credit card company. After multiple follow-up calls, the business remains in denial about their error. Also, given that this business is located in the Polanco neighborhood, they are naturally overpriced. People for bikes should steer clear of these People for Bikes.

Take a bike tour with Poray and discover the true gems of Mexico city that are hidden in the…read morebuzzing streets or the tranquil nooks and crannies of Tlatelolco! The tour begins at Fontán Reforma Hotel, where their shop is located. You're given a bike that will be adjusted according to your needs, as well as a helmet if you'd like one. My bike was a beach cruiser with a basket, which was ideal since I was dragging along my camera and water. My guide, Danny, was a super enthusiastic, has been biking his entire life and would know the roads with his eyes closed, so needless to say I felt safe even when riding the busy streets. Our first stop was made at the Monumento a la Revolución, where he gave a brief explanation of the background. Then we went on to the Buenavista-Guerrero Corridor, where we locked our bikes and took a walk down the street that features murals that cover the entire building facades. Then we drove through the quiet neighborhood of Tlatelolco, to the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, where he gave a detailed backstory of the massacre as well as the history of the pyramids and the church. After this stop, we set off again in search for more murals all over town. We finished the tour with a light lunch in the marketplace at Plaza Garibaldi before heading back to the starting point. Biking through CDMX, admiring the many pieces of art on the walls, gives you a unique perspective that no other tour will be able to offer you. The biking aspect of the tour is not strenuous at all, so I would recommend anyone to see the city from a different angle and hop on a bike with Poray!

My husband and I were visiting CDMX with our adult daughters and son-in-law and really enjoyed this…read moretour as we wanted to become better acquainted with some of the neighborhoods and see street art. Gabby was a great guide and Danny was riding behind us, corking traffic for us at times. We felt safe on all the paths taken and the city now has great infrastructure for cycling. My only wish is that I'd known that the included 'snacks' were going to be some of the best street tacos I've tasted. I had wolfed down a huge breakfast just before the tour so shared my tacos with family. Had I been hungry, they would have been all mine! This tour is a great way to get oriented with part of the inner-city. I would do it all over again just to get back to that taco stand in that sketchy neighborhood, which was safe during the day. This is a great way to cover a lot of ground and feel the culture. We booked this tour in advance through TripAdvisor.
