      Not positive

      “50 % not positive. Overall O.K. experience. No hot showers. Meals O.K. but 1 dinner was too spicy and too hot to eat. To get an alternative meal there was none, explanation was no provisions so there was nothing to give. Breakfast and lunch was a repeat of the same thing everyday. Our group who paid for a guided experience. Their were no guides???? The option for a “”Guide”” was to have a repair bike guy who repeated he’s not a guide, to do it. We still ended up lost on more than one occasion. Not fun adding unwanted distance to the ride. Along with no explanations of sites or history is not what we had in mind for the trip. Needed a flat tire repair at the end of the ride, in a city location and thank goodness not in the country side. We couldn’t tell exactly where we were to get located and have bike fixed. Tire pump in bag provide didn’t work.”

      Not to be recommended

      The staff and crew were friendly and helpful. However the quality of the boat and made it hard for staff. The regular bikes were terrible, the air conditioning did not work and the food was mostly awful.
