★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 14 reviews · from $54

Andrew has provided pickup and one-to-one rides, but confirm the vehicle and guide-led format before booking.

“Fun experience, you need a helmet. I'd say for ages 10 and up. Go in the morning after rush hour, so you can rude on more even trails and not deal with traffic. If you have knee or back pain, this is not for you. The guide is paying attention, careful and the view on the beachfront is amazing.”
