Customer Reviews
Was a great trip Day 3 of actual bike ride, day 4 of trip perhaps not as enjoyable as 5km of loose gravel road and then quite a bit on a reasonably busy road which we weren't use to, but the destination, was worth it.
Very good communication, pre trip information and arrival info pack and directions excellent. Bikes in excellent condition. Accommodation great. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic...beginning to end. Comms from UTracks very good, bikes excellent, accommodation and food likewise. Maybe a little too much main road riding?
Fantastic pre travel communication. Excellent pre cycle pack provided with maps and clear instructions. Bikes in very good condition and transport of luggage very efficient. Would highly recommend!
We're an active family of four adults, irregular cyclists but reasonable fitness levels and we had the best time! The bikes were perfect for the roads and tracks, the accommodation was spot-on with just the right amount of comfort, and each morning our bags with magically disappear at the start of our days travelling and reappear at the end. The quality of the instructions were also spot-on, very clear and it allowed us to travel in a relaxed way through the amazing countryside
