Great ride - My son and I really enjoyed this mountain bike tour. The bikes were in good shape and Francisco was a great tour guide. I really liked how he would stop to tell us about different sites on the island. Great exercise to start off the day. Would recommend!

Rudolph was a great guide... - Rudolph was a great guide - did a perfect job assessing our level and customizing our ride for us! Xoxo

Mountain Bike Tour - The guide was fantastic about information on the area. He was friendly and very attentive. My wife and I took the medium trails but hope to take the hard trails next time.

A Good First Experience - Rudolph is great host. He took exceptional care of me and my wife during our ride. It was really hot and he made sure we were well hydrated.

A cycling trip that changed our lives!!! - From the moment u contacted them, Martin and Gucci were so helpful and nice!!! We aren’t super experienced cyclists, but they made sure all 6 of us had an unbelievable experience!!! The sights were amazing!!!

Private bike tour worth the effort! - We would have never seen the wild part of aruba if we hadn't taken this bike tour. As a private tour we had alot of personal attention from our guide, Gocchi. This tour was pushing the limits of our endurance and I'm glad we did it!

Perfectly trail ride that I was looking for - Maarten picked me up from my hotel and back to the office very close by to get my helmet/bike and make sure the size was good. We left from the office on the bikes and where on sidewalks for a short distance until we got to the trails. The single track trails that he took me on where perfect for an intermediate rider and we rode for a few miles to get to the church on the hill. Then another set of miles along the north side/ocean to get to the lighthouse. Along the way Maarten strategically stopped to show me some aspects of Aruba and the wildlife. We had a great conversation and thoroughly enjoyed the ride that challenged me just enough. I'll def be dong this ride again when we come back. The ride was originally booked for two, but one of us had to be picked up by the church due to the heat. They were very helpful.

Fantastic way to explore north tip of Aruba - Really enjoyed this tour. Excellent communication from the company before trip and on the day, picked up from hotel as promised. Tour guide Rudolf was very informative and adjusted the duration/speed according to our preferences. First half contained a few minor challenging areas for novice mountain bikers like us, second half was very straightforward. Wouldn’t recommend if not used to some recent form of cycling however. Circular tour starting from North West of the island to the East then North to lighthouse and back again. A great way to see a part of the island away from the heavily commercialised area of Palm Beach and get some exercise.

Decent way to see the unseen - Rudolf the guide was great. Bike was decent. Route was okay/good. Posting should recommend a long-sleeve shirt - arms pretty chewed up from thorny bushes hanging over single track. About 15% more expensive then it should be, but that’s Aruba :)

Ripped to shreds! Cacti brutal! - I leave loads of reviews and very rarely a negative one. First issue was there was zero communication with us before this tour. To be fair we booked through Marriot Bonvoy. so not sure where the lack of communication comes from. We waited 25 minutes for a pickup at the Ritz and finally our concierge called over. They bike company assumed we would walk to the get the bikes which was next door. We would have been happy to but it said on our reservation we would be pickup at hotel and we had no idea it was down the road.. Not a big deal just something to be aware of if your voucher says pickup at Ritz Bikes were good however the seats are very hard but fine for the duration. We also had Rudolph. Nice guy but wish he had communicated a bit more honestly with us. He also seemed like he was in a rush most of the ride. At one point my husband just stopped so he could look out at the pretty visita. I understand Rudolph. must do this ride daily but just keep in mind people are doing this tour to actually SEE the island not race through it. There were four on the tour all fit people, D1 track, Backroads tour guide, Peleton weekly and 6 mile runner a few times a week. This however was new to all of us but we have all biked on tours including some 20 mile plus ones. . We road about 15 minutes into the dessert and up a few hills.. to be honest I was getting used to the rocks/navigation and was a bit slower as I was nervous.. I sped up to catch up so was winded at the top. When I got there Rudolph suggested 2 routes.. one a bit more easier since I was "out of breath".. I would have been mortified if it wasn't just my family and he said that to me. I get that people have different speeds but no need to call me out at the start when I am just figuring this out. Here are the two options we were given. Do the ocean wide paths, more of a cruise loop or 2 do more of the same, through the dessert but more physically challenging. To be clear the first 15 minutes was fun, no cacti on path, cruising up and down safely through paths so we assumed it would be more of the same. After some nervous indecisiveness we decided on a harder one so it could be our workout for the day. We were NOT expecting to be sliced and diced through tons of cactus bushes. Super rocky in bits so much so it popped my daughters tire! No joke all 4 of us came out of the approximate 45 min ride with our ENTIRE arms and legs bloodied and scratched by cactus bushes that had grown wild across the path. At one point my daughter ( again a D1 athlete) got off her bike so frustrated and had to walk to try and avoid getting ripped.. but it didn't matter you couldn't avoid them. I have attached pictures. When we finally got out of the bushes and to the chapel the 3 of us literally told my husband we were done. This was NOT fun, or enjoyable. If we had to continue going through the cactus trail we would call a cab. Rudolph informed us from that point on we would not have to deal with that so we forged on. The remainder was challenging but pretty. By the end we were wiped! SO, here is my suggestion. TELL people about the the cacti on the challenging course and allow them to make a decision! We had no idea that was a possibility and it would have made our decision easier at the start. 1. If your giving people 2 options and you see them dressed in shorts and tanks tell them the risks of being cut up! 2. This is definitely not for people that don't work out often. The heat absolutely wrecks you by the end. 2. Water, I went through 2 bottles. Bring money because at both the Chapel and Lighthouse they have drink drunks that you can purchase. You will need it at the end!! The heat on the ride is brutal. 3. I would definitely wear a long sleeve shirt although pretty sure due to the state of the wild cacti bushes it may have gotten caught and ripped. 4. If you go just opt for the beach trail. It would have been a much more pleasant experience. 5. The company should explain what to wear on this trip! We got no communication prior nor did I see it on my confirmation which is why the low rating. I think this is a great idea and had we done the alternative route it would have been way more pleasant. Not our fav outing..
