I had a day trip to Melaka on 4May. Since it's General Election weekend, Melaka is abnormally quite. After eating the chicken rice and touring around the tourist attractions near Jonker Street, Alias picked us up for a bike ride in the countryside. Around 30mins by car to his house and then 3 hrs of biking. Alias led us through... More

We enjoyed this excursion. It is rather expensive by local standards, but when else are you going to go mountain biking around the plantations? Alias is an amusing guide, who knows a great deal about his local environment, and also a genuine mountain bike enthusiast. In contrast to some reviews we rode a solid 3 hours, and we're happy to...

An enjoyable ride through the countryside near Melaka. (2 hours for the cycling and an additional 45 minutes to get to the bike starting point). Mr Alias explained about rubber, palm oil, but also different plants and flowers along the route. We saw monkeys and the odd traditional Malay house. After, we recognised the rubber trees all over Malaysia. It... More

Booked a countryside ride and started mid-afternoon. Varied terrain n scenery with nice riverside trails. We saw orchards, cash corps, herbs, villages, mix of tarmac and dirt trails. Having a support team also helped when some riders had to take a break. Best part was at the end or finish. Lovely lake with kayaks and boating on a lovely lake.... More

We chose to go on the bike tour in the morning for fear of afternoon showers. Alias provided helmets and water. Good to have a bandana to wear with helmet. The journey was interesting as we went through the rubber and oil palm plantations. Stopped to try our hand at rubber tapping. Alias made us a rubber ball from the... More

After reading the below reviews we had to give this tour a go. With very late notice, due to lack of planning on our part, Alias communicated with us via email and organised to come pick us up from our guesthouse the next morning at 9am. Alias showed us around all the local farms stopping along the way to share... More

We travelled in a group of 4 families, comprising of parents and children ranging from 3 to 17 years old. Mr. Alias, the owner and guide of the tour, had a few additional guides for the large group. The bicycles were adequate and good condition overall. We were picked up from our hotel, travelled 15min to his home at the... More

In a small group of 4 we took a leisurely tour through the interesting countryside around Melaka. Alias collected us from our hotel in the city and took us out to the start of a 3 hour ride. The riding was well paced and Alias, our guide, gave us a very well informed and interesting commentary of the local vegetation... More

Alias does a great job of combining a decent bike-ride in rubber and palm oil plantations with practical knowledge of various fruits, herbs etc. He's a very a lively and energetic person and it was a joy to do this 2-3 hour ride with him. Just make sure to bring insect repellent with you
