No gears. It is flat terrain. We came away with lots of British history and, moreover, an understanding of London from day one. Enjoyed the stop at the Grafitti Tunnel and the chance to do some spray painting. The pub visit changed my standards on ales for good. We highly recommend this tour!”

I could not believe how fun it was and how many challenges he presented us with! This is a great break from your vacation of visiting castles and such. We actually went to Warwick castle first and drove just ten minutes to the Adventure center to give the kids a fun reward while on holiday.”

Guide was nice but difficult to understand, spoke way too fast even after being asked to slow down. There was very little information given about the grounds, history & sites we passed along the way.”
