Cancellation Policy

24 hrs or less prior to booking date
- 100% cancellation fee

Do I need to be able to ride a bicycle?

Not at all, there is no balance involved as the bicycle is hard mounted to the carriage, you can ride hands free while you take photos.  You are in control of the forward movement but the steering is taken care of by being attached to the tram line.  We have taken many people who have never ridden a bicycle in their lives!

What does 'Electric Assisted Bicycles' mean?

You have an accelerator which you use to get started, once moving you can start pedalling and the electrics kick in at this point to make pedalling very easy. You can use as much or as little energy as you choose.

Can I bring gifts for the village children?

Yes!
There is no expectation by the villagers that they will be given anything, however if you would like to donate a gift please tell us when you arrive.  
We do not allow guests to gift cash or throw sweets to the children as some tours do as we see this as demeaning and unhealthy.  
Great gift ideas are books, school supplies, toys, sports gear etc.
