Wish a little more has been available about this trip - was significantly more challenging than what we expected. (POV: 2 intermediate bikers, accustomed to 20-30mi rides, *not* MBT however.) The bikes were great and clearly superior over anyone suffering in a hybrid - but the roads were 50% soft sand and rather challenging to maintain any speed on. Seeing most of the northern part required getting off roads which then led to true mountain biking on narrow and occasionally steep trails. We ‘survived’ the upper circuit but never had time to see the southern part, sadly. Also, would advise to bring lunch and plenty of water. The ferry was great and overall organization very smooth. Guided app tour was helpful.

Absolutely fascinating

The old fortress guntower underground turning mechanism is truly amazing to see, as well the majestic buildings themselves captured in time and overgrown by forest. Really should spend more time there. Lighthouse observation deck provides marvellous views, quite exhausting 207 steps though. Ride with old military vehicle is fun.

A special island with a special history. It is absolutely not touristy and that provides a very original experience. I thought the Tour was a bit on the short side; that could have been a bit more elaborate.

Great day out. A little bit more informative on how the day’s supposed to go and what’s next would of been appreciated but aside from that a great day.

Great tour into the past. We really enjoyed the truck ride and the lunch was really nice
