Our guide was brilliant!
We had a good laugh with our guide, Les, he is very likeable. More importantly though his group leadership skills were excellent. He managed the two families who cycled at different paces very well. He took safety very seriously and actually drove down to us on difficult parts of the route to check we were ok. Very impressed with Les. The children really liked him too and we all had good banter.
The holiday was quite expensive but but we did receive a lot of support which is what we paid for to have peace of mind, our daily lunches were also great, we did not expect such a spread- great to see that sight and to look out for the van!
