5.00Johann gave us a great tour. The bikes were top notch. He provided everything we needed including gloves for our cooler ride. He took us to a very quaint restaurant for lunch that had a variety of good options. He was very knowledgeable about the area and was very interesting to talk to. The scenery was beautiful and very peaceful. A great way to experience life beyond the city. Fully recommend.

5.00Johann was our bike guide for the day and we knew when we met him, it was going to be a good day. We stopped a few times along the way at small towns and historic sites. Johann is a local, so he was able to give us the historic info and the interesting local folklore. It was a fun way to learn! The views on the van ride to the Highlands and Trossachs National Park Park were amazing. The bike trip was so much fun. We rode on an old train trail winding along the beautiful countryside. Even a drenching rain didn’t dampen our fun. We stopped at a local restaurant for lunch, warmed up and dried off a bit before starting on the second part of the bike tour which was equally fun. We would highly recommend this trip, especially with Johann!!

5.00Wow I cannot rate this high enough! I was so excited for this tour and it was even better than I expected. Johann stopped along the way to show us local sights and told us about the history of the places we went and then took us on the most beautiful bike ride through the highlands! We had great weather and the food at the lunch resturaunt was amazing (try the soup!) I really can’t reccomend this tour enough and Johann made it such a full and awesome day!!
