Arturo was sensitive to our skill levels and spent time making minor adjustments on the bikes. He never rushed us while riding and made sure we all stayed together. He also gave us lots of information about the places we saw and the people who live here. Finally, at the end of the day, he took us to the local Celtic Festival, which we really enjoyed. We could have spent the entire day there, but we had to end the journey. Thank you, Arturo and good luck!
