The ground is sometimes bumpy and sometimes you're going uphill a bit so if you are not in good shape it could maybe be a little challenging for a few…”

“Great tour We were 2 adults & 2 teens 14/15 The teenagers were much more suited to the activity! It’s from age 14 up - I’d caveat that it needs to be a road savvy 14 year old - ours were fine but are mountain bikers! As a non regular bike rider I was less confident but managed ok! Great tour with a really knowledgeable guide Would absolutely recommend & well worth the money”
