Great way to end a vacation - Our guide, Antonio, did a terrific job. He was informative, fun to be with, patient with our pace of biking (about 17 miles of easy/moderate hilly roads). The countryside was beautiful and the cave was, to me, the highlight. It was so interesting and unique. We've been in several caves, however, this one had some unique features that will make you glad you went.

Wonderful biking experience - Antonio is a wonderful and very knowledgeable guide. We all enjoyed biking with him. Very attentive to the group, he never hesitated to stop and help some of us in the steepest hills. The visit of the cave was also a great experience for all of us. And the surroundings an other point of views of the country side are simply gorgeous. I warmly recommend his tour, whether you're a biking pro or an occasional amateur like me.

Sporty and nice way to get away from the crowds - Had a very nice ‘day’ on good mountain bikes crossing through the country side around lake Pletvice. Was nice to get away from the crowds. Antonio was a good guide and support and kept a watchful eye on us. Eventhough you don’t bike that much it was a sporty day. It isn’t all flat terrain and there is definitely some climbing, but not that much. We visited the ruins of the castle, the river banks (river was dry because it is midsummer) and the cave were we ate the lunch Antonio provided. A sandwich, an apple and a bottle of water. We started at 10:30 and were back at 16:00. But how long it takes also depends on your condition. Ours was average

Bike rental & guided tour - Our personal guide Antonio was very friendly and experienced, with a lot of good tips and stories about the area. As a local he knows all the hidden spots and is very well informed about the history of the places we visited. Fair price (bikes & helmets, a visit of the barac caves, lunch box and drinks after the trip were included). We had a awesome and fun day. Thank you Antonio. J&L

Beautiful and Enjoyable Bike Tour - We had a nice ride and great conversation with our guide Antonio. He was very informative about the history of the area and a pleasure to visit with. We did the longer bike tour which allowed us to get off the main roads and experience the beautiful, peaceful landscape.

Awesome Adventure! - This is an amazing trip. Antonio really knows the area, the history, and the best spot to take a group of bike-adventurers. Truly a one of a kind experience with a motivated person who wants you to have a great time. He made sure we got a nice ride in, while it was not challenging, it was some work. Perfect amount of effort to make you feel like you earned a nice beer when you get back. We did the bike tour after a day at plitvice, which was also absolutely incredible. The combination of two adventures made us feel like we really learned a lot about the area; both in terms of the tourism, and the people and life there.
