“Cant recommend enough”

Reviewed May 21, 2013 NEW

We went on the half day excursion (2 adults and an 11 year old) We had a fantastic morning and this was an amazing diversion from the normal sun holiday activities. We'd a fascinating local history lesson from our guide on the way up in the mini bus. As for the cycle down, super scenery, great focus on safety and... More

Thanks for taking the time to write the review. We love to hear the word "Amazing" used to describe this beautiful area - because it really is. As there is no public transport, it continues to remain unspoilt - can you believe some of the villages received electricity less than 2 decades ago! It shows you the real Spain in... More

Both the guys were really warm, welcoming and very helpful. As parents with two young children (3 and 4) we were very impressed with the interaction with the kids.

“Breathtaking”

Reviewed May 11, 2013

A wonderful experience for all ages and abilities, no need to be fit or a good cyclist. The wonderful guides help to make you feel comfortable on the bike. Helmets and hi-vis jackets supplied. Wonderful scenery, knowledgeable guides, something you should definitely do to get away from it all.

Thanks for taking time to share your experience of the excursion. We are so glad to hear how much you enjoyed it. People tell us they feel as though they had another mini holiday, as the mountains are so different form the commercial resort. A big thanks from the Downhill Bike team x More
