I had a great time and really enjoyed the trip. My only comment is that the Intermediate level required more experience than the tour description suggested. this was fine for me but mean that the route had to be altered to accommodate the needs of others in our group. Maybe the tour description should explain a bit more about the expectations of riders at Intermediate level and note that there will be challenging sections to ride.
It was great. However it would be good to know what clients want in advance. We had a mixed group some wanting off road, some not wanting rough stuff. This made it difficult for the leader.
Also some more clarity about roads in the blurb would be good.
The only issue I had was that we were not aware of the level of off road sections, I consider my self to be an experienced rider however I had not done any off road riding.
I think this information should be made clear before the tour is even booked.
The descriptions need some work. I’ve come back a better rider but I wasn’t expecting to be completing significant sections off road.
Even intermediate riders (in the UK) would not ordinarily have experienced off road conditions previously.
The trip was described as being for intermediate level riders, which I consider myself to be. However, that is on tarmac, I had not expected the off-road sections, nor the state of some of the lesser used tracks, which totally disappeared at times. Had I known how much riding was not on proper surfaced roads, I probably wouldn't have booked to go. Also, I was expecting more time for photo stops, interaction with the locals etc.
The only part that was a waste of time was the safari. It was clear so after leaving that it highly unlikely to see a tiger and we had seen more wildlife enroute. An afternoon by the pool would have been a better option!
I felt the trip was more intense than described. For example, there was no off road mentioned or river crossing, had I known I would not have booked it. I found the trip very "full on" and couldn't enjoy the scenery.
