Damian was a great guide - he caters the tour to his guests - if you want to cycle far he will take you, if you want to focus on the sights then that's what he'll do. He is chatty, funny and full of honest tips. Make sure you do the bike tour with him.

Extremely poor!!! We would not recommend this tour to anyone!!!! Look at other options!!!
My partner had gear trouble with her bike and the tour guide rushed off leaving us with no idea where we were in the park after the first stop!! We eventually found our way back to the shop and they were not helpful at all.
