Wonderful tour. Accommodation – far better than I needed. Guide's service - beyond what was necessary.

Loved every minute of the trip and did not want it to end.  You have ruined me now and I doubt I will ever be able to go on another camping tour again….

Both Emma and Brett were fantastic.  Emma was well organised, efficient, kept everyone moving while still letting everybody have fun and do what they wanted… Brett's sense of humour was worth the price of the tour fee on its own.

I enjoyed everything, especially the cycling, rental bike, guides and the company of the other tour members.  Being an introverted loner type the amount of enjoyment I got from the social aspects of the tour far exceeded anything I have experienced on a dozen or so other cycling tours.  Best rental bike I have ever had… Was able to ride the Trek 7.5T hybrid all day with no (lower back) pain.
