However, I would happily bike with this tour company. The experience was educational and extremely enjoyable.”

This is a wonderful way to see what a magical city London is. It really helped me get more familiar with the layout of the land . So different to experience it by bicycle. We were a small group, just five, including our very knowledgeable guide. Always be ready for rain, don't forget a waterproof jacket with a hood. We both thoroughly enjoyed the tour.”

I could not believe how fun it was and how many challenges he presented us with! This is a great break from your vacation of visiting castles and such. We actually went to Warwick castle first and drove just ten minutes to the Adventure center to give the kids a fun reward while on holiday.”

“This is a great way to explore the grounds surrounding Hampton Palace. In a small group of no more than 8, you take a cruiser bike and spend the afternoon (or morning) cruising around the expansive park with the tour guide teaching you about the history of the area and the palace. Trish, our guide, was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humour. It's a cruisey ride, almost all flat, with several stops that will allow you to see the local wildlife (Red deer and fallow deer), the local pub, and major monuments. Note: You do not enter the ticketed area of Hampton Palace, you simply ride around…”
