Our three children; 13, 10 and 3 all thoroughly enjoyed their experience riding with Star, Bucks and Bo. Mandy was fantastic catering to all three ages so that the kids could ride together, ride confidently and have fun at their own pace. Definitely one of the highlights of our Port Douglas holiday. We will be back for sure and will have a longer ride next time. Thanks Mandy!
