“This hidden gem bike tour was very interesting and informative. Our tour guide Joris (Joe) was amazing! He made it easy to find him in the meeting spot which had the meeting spot “fountain” hidden by white market tents and construction. This construction/obstruction of the fountain could/should be noted in the meeting point instructions. The bikes are all new and in good condition. One of my brakes was squeaky and didn’t work real well alone but with both front and rear brakes together it stopped ok. It would have been very helpful if the bikes had a basket, OR at the very least info in the instructions advising that one…”
