I had two days with Bevan, taking me along two very technical trails in the Cape. A great experience and a lot of fun with Bevan. I’ll be back soon! And highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys mountain biking.
Hi Andrew Thank you for taking the time to give us the feedback on your Mountain Bike Private Tour with AWOL guide , Bevan . So glad that the trails that he selected for you lived up to your expectations and that you had 2 great half days of riding in the Cape Town surrounds . Look forward to having you back again soon!
I had fabulous ride with Bevan, who is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about MTB biking. He made my day while I discovered the beauty of the Cape region.
I had a fantastic half day mountain ride in the Botterlary Hills with Bevan. Beautiful views to the mountains behind Stellenbosch and across to False Bay. Bevan got the level just right for me and my slightly dodgy back, so not very technical, but I still had to do some work up and down the switchbacks :) We had a good laugh too, Bevan is a proper expert in all aspects of mountain biking, but carries it lightly, offers advice gently and quietly attentive - you barely notice he's looking out for you. His love of the ride is contagious and I found myself doing things I wouldn't have done on my own (but no wheelies yet :D ). Also the office team (thank you!) are responsive, lovely and sort everything out effortlessly. Loved it, and will be a staple for every future visit to Cape Town.
Dear Sam, Thank you for taking the time to review and recommend your AWOL Tours half day mountain bike adventure with AWOL Guide Bevan. Our mountain biking guides love sharing their favourite trails with our guests. Private tours allows for more flexibility so that our team can really customize the experience according to the client's cycling preference; we can offer more technical trails for experienced riders, flowing down hills with breath taking views, and easy beginner trails. We also have full day and half day mountain biking adventures ( or early morning rides). All our mountain biking adventures end with an excellent coffee or an award winning tasting depending on location. Thank you for trusting AWOL Tours with your holiday and thank you again for this very much appreciated recommendation. Kind regards, Helen for AWOL Tours.
We really enjoyed this wine tour! Bevan, our guide, was very interesting (he has in-depth knowledge of wines and vineyards), forward-looking (he had provided us with electric bikes to facilitate our visit and the necessary water), and above all, very friendly. I recommend !

We contacted AWOL asking for an enduro oriented experience near Cape Town and they nailded it! Our guide Oliver picked us at our appartment and we picked some really specialized turbo levos sl at a bike shop and went to Jonkershoek. The trails there offer a lot of different options; flowy and rocky ones are very enjoyable regardless of the level. After Jonkershoek we had lunch at a very nice restaurant for a very decent price and afterwards we headed to Banhoek and it was exellent, it can hardly get better. Worth mentioning Oliver is more than just an mtb guide, talking with him is a pleasure. He explained us some history about the region and the country and he also gave us some great recommendations. Couldn’t have gone better

I had a truly fabulous time mountain biking with my guide Bevan in the Stellenbosch area. It truly was the highlight of my 10-day trip to Cape Town (though kayaking among the penguins and hiking Table Mountain were also pretty cool!). Everything about the experience was top notch: AWOL was responsive and flexible to design a trip for me on a quick timeline; they were attentive to my interests and needs; they provided just the right amount of information to allow me to work with them to design a great day of biking; the quality of the trails, terrain, etc. were spot on; the conversation was amazing -- I learned a ton that day about all sorts of topics related to South African history and culture. I can't say enough positive things. I would use AWOL again in a second!

We had a blast riding all over the Franschoek backroads with our amazing guide Peter K. Not only was the scenery absolutely stunning (surrounded by burgeoning vineyards) but the wine stops were a refreshing pit stop, gearing us up for our next ride. We loved it, recommend it to others, and can’t wait to do it again on our next visit.
