We were out with Ciclo a last month and a girl joined us part way through the week. She had originally booked with another company, I'm not 100% sure but the facts seem to fit with it being BikingAndalucia. She had been the only person on the holiday and had had a bad experience, seems like the guide wasn't keen on women and pushed her too hard. Anyway she had a much better time with Ciclo.

Been out with bikingandalucia a few times. Good area and trails and had the Mrs with me no problems. And unlike enmac I'm 100% sure of the facts Davids not anti women. Good value trips to be had.

Going back out next month will be 3 times this year. Last time out Dec/ Jan holidays and March.
We like being just outside town , good bars and places to eat.
Dave is a good guide, people are ace . Last time left my Garmin 810 in a bar after a run and they gave me it back later that night . ๐Ÿ™‚

I'm booked for a week in Nov. going to be road riding with my wife, though I have also mountain biked therein the past as well. We have both been several times previously and its a brilliant area for doing both. Bikingandalucia are a very friendly small operator with great local knowledge and cater well to all abilities in what I've seen on previous trips. I've seen mostly mixed groups when on hols there & good times been had.
The local town Orgiva is a very laid back place for post ride beers & food in the evenings, it has an authentic feel of real Spain whilst catering for most needs just 5 mins walk from the accomodation. Obviously a recommend from me, i haven't tried any of the other operators in the area to compare.
