“ATV acrivity is always fun. Always!! But the booking clashing causes a lot of people to complain because agencies don't communicate in time with the owners or the bikes. I booked for a 1pm activity & the agency moved my booking to 2pm without informing me. As far as I'm concerned I think the bike owners should book clients directly & discontinue agency bookings. If it's not the wrong timings it's the wrong prices!!”
