Mountain bike ride

The route was interesting, challenging and had incredible scenery. The guide was a very knowledgable individual and made the ride a good deal of fun as well.

I really had a good time. I would do this again. Poor guide though... I was really slow. That was probably the slowest tour he'd ever done. But thankfully, I was the only one and he was infinitely patient.

Aruba mountain bike adventure

A great way to see the island. Our guide was knowledgeable and informative, the pace was appropriate for average riders not acclimated to warmer island temperatures. 5 star recommendation for anyone who enjoys off road biking.

A great activity and tour of the island

My wife and I were the only two booked for this tour. The tour guide/owner did a great job. He asked about our riding experience and tailored the ride to our skill and experience level. The mountain bikes were in excellent condition and well maintained. Helmets and clean, cold water bottles were provided. Our ride was about 11 or 12 miles and took several hours with the various stops that we made for resting and sight seeing. The only problem was the description of where to meet. Instructions said to meet at the Valero gas station, but it's name has changed to Citgo. It was easy to find but we wondered if it was right until calling. I highly recommend this excursion. (Horseback riding from the same place is also available)

Great Tour

Great tour in Aruba. Intensity of the ride might depend on the people in your group. My husband, son and I loved the terrain but the other couple with us struggled a bit. The guide slowed things down which dragged the tour out a bit longer in the heat than necessary, but overall a great excursion. On time; only small wait times to get organized. Did not cover a huge amount of distance (16km, around the northern tip of the island) but pleasant scenery - if you are looking to get a cross section of the scenery/history/sights that Aruba offers this might not be the tour for you, but if you are looking for some exercise and some great scenery, you will enjoy this one.

Slow start, but a great excursion…

I love cycling and thought it a great choice to explore Aruba. Bad: Directions said to go to a gas station outside the pier that didn't exist (name had changed). Driver showed up 15 minutes late did cause some anxiety. Good: I was the only person signed up for the tour this trip, so course was designed for me. The course was NOT for the faint of heart. I left with quite a few scratches from the brush through which we traveled. The bike provided was somewhat higher-end than I expected. Aruba is largely desert-like with a LOT of loose sand. When we reached the seashore it was quite the pretty spot. The guide was great and apparently mountain bikes at least six days a week. I would recommend the excursion, but certainly some improvements should be made. Also, be up front and honest about your abilities so that he can choose paths to fit your abilities.

A great way to see Aruba!

There were just the 2 of us and our guide as we traveled 18K by mountain bike. We saw the island in its natural state, without all the touristy spots. It was beautiful! It was an adventure, a lot of pedaling, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks to Rancho Notorious for an experience like none other!

Great excursion, Knowledgeable guide. Warm and friendly atmosphere. Stunning scenery. Great mountain bike course. My only regret was that the mountain bike course was not longer. Would you like to have spent more time cycling the island especially the desert.
