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

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. The ride was amazing, views spectacular, and the information we received about the area was very impressive. Did the half day this time, but will definitely go back and do the... More

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.

I would highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Salou, My mam booked this trip and I was a little nervous for her as she is 60+ and hadnt been on a bike in years, never mind one with gears on it. Turned out there was nothing to be worried about, the instructors are very helpful and you can cycle... More

My son and I went on a half day downhill bike trip. We were treated really well and had a great time, the staff made the day interesting by giving information about the local history and little known attractions, while being very funny throughout the excursion. Safety was a concern of mine, but we were safe at all times as... More

You really made me smile - because I can just imagine your face when your mum delivered the news about the trip. However it is really great to hear we were able to change your impression and that you had an amazing time. I'm sure next time mum comes up with what you think is a crazy idea you'll be... More

Having been to Salou and Catalunya many times I thought I'd seen most of the stunning views and sampled the best of the tourist activities until I noticed this 'Downhill Biking'. The guides, while not of Spanish decent, are locals through and through and they know their stuff, not just about the villages and mountain passes, but also about the... More
