Max was a terrific guide. Bikes were fantastic. The route we rode was stunning while very charming. Well worth the time and expense.
Thanks so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure riding with you!! Cheers, Max.
Max was an amazing guide! He took us around the villages, told us the history, and left time for us to walk around and enjoy certain spots. I would highly recommend this experience!
Thanks so much for your nice words!
Max was a great guide. We got to see many different views of the lake, surrounding towns, and a small regional vineyard. Experiencing the Como area via bike gives a different perspective of the area outside of high traffic tourist areas. Max knows a lot about the region’s wines, winemaking practices and history so be sure to ask questions.
So glad you liked the itinerary! Thanks a lot for riding together!
Max and Manuel did a fantastic job of keeping us safe on the ride. Explaining the area showing is various gardens and lookout points. The e-bikes were fantastic! It made the climbs so easy. Highly recommend this company and your.
Thanks a lot Danielle! So happy you liked the ride!! You were very confident riding and a lot of fun. Great morning, thanks!
We had an incredible experience with Max and Manuel riding fantastic e-bikes. They worked very well together to guide us safely on our ride and show us some of the beautiful gardens and vineyards. The pedal assisted e-bikes made the steep climbs easy! They planned great resting breaks with beautiful views and explanations. The starting point was super easy to find and they were very clear in communication in how to reach them before the tour. Highly highly recommend this company. We forgot to remove our GoPro from the bike after the ride and barely made it 1 minute down the road and Max was calling us to get the Go Pro back to us.
Thanks to you guys!! It was so nice riding all together forming a very lovely group that day! Thanks for being such confident riders: it was a pleasure to explore around with you!
Such an amazing ride! It was stunningly beautiful and our guide, Max, was awesome!!
Thanks you so much!
Max led our small group on a great tour through 6 different villages. He kept us safe and knew all the best places to stop for beautiful pictures. He even added a few extra spots because we were ahead of schedule.
Thanks a lot for your words! It was a pleasure riding with you!!
Arrived a few minutes early as the confirmation stated that the ride starts at the confirmed time. Ride began 1/2 hours into the start time. Booked this ride into Switzerland under the premise of “rural roads” once the ride began we found out that we were going to be riding on regular roads that have a significant about of traffic and no shoulders or bike lanes. As a result we were not able to go into Switzerland since no one was comfortable on the roads. The guide rode ahead of us and didn’t worry too much about whether we knew where we were going or not and there was no one behind ensuring we stayed together. This ride is for biking professionals, not people who like to ride bike paths on the weekends. Sadly it was a huge disappointment as it was to be the highlight of my trip. Waste of MONEY!!
Dear sir, route is clearly explained in description, cycling lane first and backroads after with short climbs, rolling hills and consequent downhills. If you're not able to ride a bicycle it's not our fault and I'd suggest you to evaluate better your skills before booking an outdoor activity. Sorry to hear it was not as expected but this is a leisure ride with stops for pictures, an intense cycling activity is a totally different thing you may not even imagine. Itinerary change was for your safety only and not to put you in danger because of your lack of confidence. Fortunately this ride is appreciated by the most.
Our guide did a wonderful job adapting the tour based on us our experience with biking. He altered our route to fit our experience (one of us hadn't biked in a while) and gave us good exploration of the surrounding area. The only complaint was that we couldn't stop as long as we would have liked (perhaps an eternity) so that we could finish on time.
Thanks dear!! :-) yeah there's a lot to explore here in Lake Como, it's great to have guests like you that are willful to discover details! Every valley here may deserve a day. Cheers!! Max.
From booking to the ride we had it was flawless and everyone in our group had a fantastic time. Our group was novice in experience but Max (owner/guide) was patient and showed us a great route through Como. Highly recommend using them for a great day!!!
Thanks so much for your kind and nice words! Always a pleasure to ride around with Happy People!
