What other customers have to say!
"The views were amazing travelling through the Zona Cafetera. The climbs were challenging and the descents thrilling. Organizing a trip like this in Colombia is challenging logistically to say the least and Cyclota did a great job. We were provided with good quality hire bikes.”
