Private bike tour worth the effort!

Karen_S, Feb 2024

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!

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Hi there, Very nice to see you enjoyed our tour and the wild side of the island. Great! Thanks for everything.

Decent way to see the unseen

Ryan_S, Dec 2023

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 :)

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Hi there, thanks for the review and thanks for the tips. We will tell Rudolf he did a great job again. See you next time!

Perfectly trail ride that I was looking for

Jonathan_B, Nov 2023

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.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Hi there, Amazing to see you had a great with us. For us the same. Thanks for everything and the nice workout. Till next time!

Great mountain bike ride!

Mike_S, Jul 2023

I had a great ride! The trail was challenging and hot. It reminded me alot of mountain biking on Colorado and Utah. The guide was knowledgeable about the trail and the area. The equipment was great quality. The trail I rode was not for beginners but my guide stated he was able to adjust to all levels of riders. I would highly recommend.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Hi, Thanks for your review. We definitely agree it is not for beginners, but it is also no problem to adjust to the level. Glad you enjoyed you work out.

Exactly what we wanted!

Corby_S, Mar 2023

We booked a private tour, I was worried the bikes would be subpar but they were not, they were nice, well maintained Cannondale hard tails. The guide was fantastic. So happy we booked this tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Thank you so much for this kind review. We appreciate it very much!!!

Fun but exhausting

George_G, Feb 2023

Five rear tire punctures meant my guide pumping up my tire every few kilometres to get back. The terrain is very hard on bikes but I had a great time.

Dangerous waste of money

DANNY_M, May 2022

AVOID! I would not recommend this tour company or this tour. The bikes were not properly sized fir my wife and children. My wife fell and the tour guide TK not even check to see how he could help her. The gear changing was not explained which is critical for the steer rocky climbs. The stops were not explained. Meaning we got to the lighthouse and historical context was given. Tour guide never send us the photos he took. Tour guide was more interested in talking about himself.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

Dear Danny, first: we are very sorry to read about your unhappy experience. We are here to make all our customers happy and satisfied. When this is not the case, we’d like to do everything in our power to change that. We truly regret that we could not get any feedback right away to solve or change your dissatisfaction directly. We are also very surprised about this review. We always had a lot of contact with you. After the tour, our desk attendant asked how everything was, which is for us the moment to reveal honest feedback from our guests. The response was that everything was great. We received an email afterwards from your end stating that everything was great. It’s a pity for both parties that we could not offer you anything at that moment to have you leave as a happy customer! As usual, our tour instructor traveled with a first aid kit and indeed instructed us afterwards that your wife fell. He had asked her how she was doing, if she was feeling okay and she responded that she was fine. He asked if she wanted to continue the tour and your wife agreed with that. The tour guide also did send you the pictures. Regarding the bikes: in the Viator reservation we always ask to fill in the heights, so we can bring the correct sizes of bikes. Based on the given heights, we brought you 2 Medium and 2 Large bikes. This was according to every bike form globally. If you would have wanted anything different, we could have changed it right away at the spot. After your review, we tried calling you but unfortunately, we could never reach you anymore. We feel very sorry for this all of a sudden bad experience. Reviews like this have a strong impact on our business and we would have rather received a straightforward feedback. This way we would have been able to help you wherever we could or offer you a full refund.
