Wir bekamen einen sehr guten Einblick in das Leben im Dorf, sowohl visuell auf der Fahrt wie auch über Erzählungen von "Three" (unserem Guide). Er ging auf alle individuellen Fragen ein. Die Fahrradtour war sehr angenehm, eine gewisse Fitness auf dem Rad ist aber notwendig. Der Wasserfallbesuch am Nachmittag war eine willkommene und erfrischende Abwechslung. Das Mittagessen war der Hammer! Danke an das gesamte Team! Ihr habt uns einen tollen Tag abseits des Massentourismus beschert.

A fantastic combination of country cycling and sticky waterfall with Nonny as super guide made it unforgettable.
We got extensive explanations about plants, fruits and trees and answers to all the questions we asked him. A very good, relaxed and sporty guide. The cycle route was beautiful and challenging for us as experienced Dutch cyclists.
Visited an impressive large and beautiful temple complex during the route.
There was also every opportunity to make photo stops in between.
Not to mention that we were able to enjoy a delicious lunch at noon at the beautiful sports resort from which we departed.
