We had the most amazing bike trip! The views were absolutely stunning, and the whole experience was so much fun. The team made everything incredibly easy to navigate, and we loved being able to go at our own pace. Highly recommend the combo ride—you get breathtaking views along the way and then finish with the most delicious fresh fruit. It was the perfect way to wrap up the trip. The bikes worked flawlessly, and the battery lasted our full 5 hours, which was incredible. We can’t recommend this enough and will definitely be coming back with friends and family!
