About
Through the Bike Tour of the Fátima Neighborhood and Church Unit, people will get to know the way of life of Brazilians and learn about the urban design designed by Lucio Costa, the city's inventor architect. We think mainly of people who already know the Monumental Axis and would like to know different places, see the life that Brazilians live and understand how it lives. By bike we travel impossible circuits to other vehicles and the perspective of the city is completely different.

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Luca U0 contributionsamazing experience!I'm usually not the kind of person to write reviews but everything about this tour was amazing! to anyone interested in architecture or the history or Brasilia I honestly cannot recommend it enough! Roman and the team were super friendly and just great so don't even hesitate and just book the tour (ideally not on Mondays though because most of the sites are closed then)Written 28 January 2025
- Diane_Ldn0 contributionsA great experience and a brilliant way to see the cityI had a great tour of Brasilia which was the double version of their popular tours. I saw a huge amount of the city and the ride took in a large section of the park and a ride on (sparkling clean) Metro too. Almost all of the ride was on segregated bike lanes or away from the road so it felt too. I also learnt a lot about the city and highly reommend this tour to understand more about the capital and how it took shapeWritten 16 January 2025
- Nomad419620577330 contributionsHighly recommended - a perfect morning out!We did this as a double, combined with the Fatima district tour (2 x 3 hours). Both together, or either individually, are superb and highly recommended. Mauricio our guide really added to our enjoyment of the JK memorial & the Indigenous People’s monument with his additional background knowledge and we cycled on to see areas of the city we would definitely not have seen without him. Cycling in Brasilia is a pleasure - it is flat and leafy with many cycle lanes and the tour was at a gentle pace with regular stops. Highly recommended. Tip: if it is no longer available to book on line it is worth contacting Camelo Bike Tours directly - we missed the on-line booking window but went into their shop which is next to the Melia 21 hotel and were able to book.Written 11 November 2024

- Aejoung N0 contributionsGreat bike courseIt was a very unique experience bike tour in the Basilia. I would never know about how the city from the design till developed today. Laila was so patient and knowledgeable and it was great bike course to get to know the whole city. I strongly recommend it.Written 19 June 2024
- susancO2173RP0 contributionsSuch a great experience with tour guides that genuinely cared about us and our experience.Huge shout out to the team from Camelo Bike Tour who looked after a group of 20 of us. Our safety was their 1st priority, stopping traffic on busy roads to ensure the entire group stayed together. Leading the group was Mauricio, who shared so much knowledge about his city, and corralling the group was Luana, Henrique, Filipe and Romain. Anyone wanting a fantastic view of the city, these are your people!Written 11 June 2024
- JDHEN870 contributionsMust do for urbanist touristsAs an urban planner, Brasilia was a must-see for me when I visited Brazil. I was concerned I wouldn't be able to see the whole auto-oriented city on my own, as someone who is a foreigner who doesn't speak the language and someone who is not a big driver. And that's why I'm so glad I found Camelo Bike Tour. I got the full experience I was looking for: seeing the major monuments, hearing all about the planning and construction of the city, and learning a lot about local and national history as well. As a transportation planner, it was great to see a different side of the city by traveling by foot, bike, and metro. Special shoutout to my your guide Rui, who was friendly, informative, and totally willing to take me out on a long tour during a heat wave!Written 20 April 2024
- jenniferlK4380AM0 contributions5 Stars - Book now!I had a wonderful tour of Brasília’s monumental axis through Camelo bike tours. This tour is a must for anyone interested in modernism, architecture, or 20th-century Brazilian history. Pauline was my English guide and her comments about each location were knowledgeable and insightful. Camelo gave me everything I needed—the bike, helmet, water, and even a poncho. It was a rainy day and we had to stop after 45 minutes in the morning. The team was really gracious and allowed me to come back once the skies cleared to continue the tour. Given the distance between the governmental buildings this bike tour is ideal for seeing everything in a short amount of time. I look forward to booking another tour on my next trip to Brasilia!Written 13 April 2024
- Kex1000 contributionsGood experience and educationalThis company was so helpful - their English was impeccable - both at the store and with the Guide. My guide Maurice is a wealth of knowledge, he knew a lot of details about the architecture and the story of the development. Would highly recommendWritten 14 December 2023

Daniel was a very knowledgeable person who shared with me interested facts about Brasilia city. Daniel brought me to Fatima church, City park, Artificial lake, we also ride through the modern blocks neighborhood and he explained me all what I was wondering about these places. It was 3 hrs ride which I enjoyed it until the last minute. Thank you Camelo Bike. I recommend you to take it

The excellent tour guide was Graco. He communicated enthusiasm from the first first moment to the last, never losing heart. In the Communication Tower he illustrated the history of the city with historical anecdotes, and then accompanied us inside the park, in which he showed some plants and the peculiarity of some local bees without a sting. Arrived in the model square we could admire the architectural structure of the main buildings, the gardens, that of the body of water and mushrooms with children, who passed from one plant to another. We finished the tour in the church of Our Lady of Fatima.

Grazie mille per la tua revisione!
Sono molto contento di come hai descritto il nostro tour in bicicletta: è stato un susseguirsi di fatti, storie e luoghi che, immagino, abbiano suscitato il tuo interesse e quello degli altri partecipanti.
Io e il mio team ci impegniamo sempre a garantire che la migliore esperienza si distingua. Brasilia è davvero una città giardino ammirevole per la sua struttura urbana, la sua architettura e, naturalmente, il suo paesaggio.
Torna più spesso e conosci ancora di più la nostra città! Sarà molto gradito!

A wonderful experience, cycling through parts of Brasilia we would not otherwise have seen and learning more about the society of the city, as well as the buildings. Brasilia lends itself to cycling - flat with lots of cycle paths - and the trip was at a gentle pace. Our guide Mauricio was brilliant - excellent English, very knowledgeable about the city and also discussing wider questions (and provided a great dinner recommendation!). A must-do to add breadth to any trip to Brasilia. Tip: if the tour is no longer showing as available to book, it is worth going to the Camelo shop next to the Melia 21 hotel - we missed the on-line booking window but were able to book in person

Hello again, Catherine!
Thank you so much for this wonderful second review! We noticed that you enjoyed the experience so much that you wanted to share even more details, which made us happy. We truly appreciate your kind words and recognition of Mauricio Leão, who is dedicated to making each tour special, providing not only knowledge about the city but also offering a broader perspective on Brasília’s context and curiosities. Our guides are passionate about bringing the city to life and adding that extra context – and it seems that Mauricio did exactly that!
We’re glad that you made the most of the tour, especially discovering parts of Brasília that you might not have seen otherwise. The city really offers a unique perspective when explored by bike, and it’s a joy to know that we were able to provide this experience for you.
Thank you also for the tip about the booking process. We’ll keep working to ensure that everyone can easily reserve their experiences. It’s always good to know how we can improve!
It was a pleasure having you with us, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back for more discoveries in Brasília.
Warm regards,

This was a terrific experience, perfect for a deeper understanding of the history, urban planning and social life of Brasilia. On my first day in the city, I had already made my way around most of the Central Axis, so was interested in delving deeper into some lesser know aspects of Brasilia. I was not disappointed. My excellent guide Mauricio and I covered 15+km, investigating everything from housing to schools, parks, cinemas, churches and telecommunications! I did not see the time pass. Even a torrential downpour late in the day did not stop us. At one point we ducked into the oldest pizzeria in Brasilia for a double-slice and a cup of sweet tea, and were welcomed very warmly by the owner. Mauricio pointed out things I would otherwise have missed, like how even the design of park bathrooms perfectly encapsulates modernist architecture. He also pointed out unusual things like beehives and endangered trees. I left with a much fuller understanding of the city, its history and the way of life of its residents. Highly recommend.

As newly arrived expats in Brasilia we would like to explore the city by bike. We had a very interesting tour with Camelo. We learned a lot about the history of Brasilia and its flora and fauna. Pepe our guide, who speaks fluently English, showed us the beauty the city has to offer. There was a lot of attention for our safety. We can recommend Camelo to everyone who wants three hours of cycling and visit places you would never find by yourself.

It is very important for everyone in the tourist trade here in Brasília, especially us.
Brasília, as it is the capital of Brazil, receives many expatriates like you, who will work here and therefore want to get to know it more deeply. It is always a great pleasure for us to be able to show this Brasilia that we are passionate about.
Our team wish a very warm welcome to you all!

An incredible surprise in Brasilia! I love pedal and be able to know more about the history of the construction of Brasilia, to hear and know about the important people in the planning and construction of this wonderful city and have a taste of the cerrado was too much. But the big differential of this activity was the guidance of Graco, passionate architect he gives us a great lesson about the region. This passion contagies and makes you want to know Brasilia even more! If you come to Brasília, don’t miss out on seeing the city from the Camelo bike tour.

If you are in Brasilia, you should definitely do this bike tour! We had 2 fantastic guides Laila and Ricardo, who gave us a very interesting explanation about Brasilia and its super squadra neighborhoods. Must see, especially because this tour gives you much more insight into living in a city like Brasilia. This tour certainly gave us a very different (positive) view of Brasilia. Contact and arranging the tour was also very pleasant and everything went as agreed. Super organization, worth every euro.
