3 rate this tour with 5.0 stars

I really enjoyed my Johannesburg Bike Tour with ***. He is a professional guide and knows a lot about the area. Maybe to much because he kept on talking for 3 hours:). I visit South-Africa frequently but during this tour I saw Johannesburg from an other side. Which I liked very much. The contact from the beginning up to my return in my hotel, I aranged a transfer with Baja Bike for pick-up and drop-off at the hotel, was outstanding and definately worth the money. So thank you very much for this experience.

We liked the tour very much. *** told us much about the history, culture, religion and so on. The advice we would give inform us in advance that the end of the tour is not the same place as the beginning of the tour.
