Pedal along 12 miles of unspoiled beauty, exploring Bonaire's wildlife and lush landscape, as well as its first settlement. Your tour begins as you board your transportation for a short drive to the starting location outside town, where you'll be equipped with a mountain/tour bike and helmet and will receive a briefing. Your professional naturalist guide will escort you north on Bonaire's most scenic paved roads, stopping to chat about Bonaire's flora, fauna and natural history. Along the way, you'll witness the blush of the pink flamingos reflected off Goto Lake. Next on your itinerary is Dos Pos (Two Wells), a drinking well for animals, where you too will stop for complimentary water or soft drinks. The next leg of your ride is Rincon Valley. After 2.5 hours of cycling, your tour concludes in Rincon Valley with a relaxing drive back by bus to the pier.

In the village of Rincon bicycles get loaded onto a trailer and your return trip to the cruise ship is by bus. The minimum height required to participate is 54 inches.
