“We had a great time with Constantine! He was so relaxed and willing to go at our pace and stop at places we were interested in, and he provided interesting information about the area along the way. We were very grateful they provided rear attachments that we used for our kids who weren't as confident biking the 20 or so kilometers of the trip.”
