3.0Enjoyable but not as much cycling as I would have hoped with lots of stop/starting. Some of the stops felt unnecessary, and the overlong visit to the goat farm was just sad as some of the smaller animals and birds were in tiny cages with little enrichment. Why places like this are included when there are fresh fruit farms in the area is bizarre. I was surprised the tour starts and ends from Audi Dream Farm as was expecting somewhere less visited, maybe more southern. The drive took about 45/55 minutes each way so is half the trip time. When we were cycling in the countryside it was enjoyable!
Biking in rural landscape

3.0It was fun to be on a bike surrounded by a beautiful rural landscape. Our guide was knowledgeable, but the bikes were a little worn out and some of the stops felt unnecessary. I would have preferred a bit more biking as a whole and more scenic stops in nature.
Great riding experience!

5.0Great experience to see the countryside, our tour guide Eddie was informative and the ride was achievable for me as a very rusty rider! One of our highlights from our trip to Penang. As others have mentioned, there are no helmets so if you want one you may want to bring your own, the bikes are basic but worked fine. Would recommend as a great option to see more of the island!
Happy village life

4.0Early morning rise was so worthwhile. Driver arrived promptly and provided useful insight on island life. Bicycles weren't fanciest but good-enough for our flat land excursion. Tour guide was knowledgeable - just recommend he direct his sharing (i.e., his voice/speech) to entire group rather than just a few (scattered) participants. Could be rectified by positioning himself in front of larger group at each stop and asking all to gather bikes around him so we could all hear.
