A wonderful way to acclimate yourself to the city and get some exercise. I wish the bikes were in better shape. On one, the hand brakes didn't work and the pedal brakes were very shoddy. The guide was great in telling us things and showing us little off the beaten track places, as well as getting us to all the museums and sights. The following week was easy after this. The 3 hours we spent on the bikes was fun except for the condition of the bikes.

We lucked out in being between the cruise ships and the conventions, so it was such a wonderful experience. I would recommend it to everyone.

The tour guide was informative, solicitous, personable, and charming. Only two people on the tour, so you know we lucked out and had a personal tour. What a treat.

If I had not spent a week in the park a couple of years ago I would have been furious over the 'stop, shoot a picture, get back in' pace of the over-crowded van that needed new shocks. The inability to hear the guide's remarks would not have been cool if I did not already know of the park.

My Review
The bus was clean, and it was great that there was a restroom on board. That alleviated any concerns I had about consuming wine. I would have liked to have some munchies with the first winery rather than at the third one. All in all, it was quite pleasurable.
