We initially booked the standard Brighton Bike Tour as the main activity for our weekend trip to Brighton. Initially we were sceptical given the weather forecast, leading up to the date of the tour in early November, but were pleasantly surprised for a number of reasons.
Firstly, it was just the two of us, so our tour turned out to be private, enabling Carlo the tour guide to give us an informative; punctual; witty; and safe tour of the city and coast in two and a half hours.
