We are delighted to announce that for the second year running (and only our second full year of trading) Hike + Bike has been awarded the 2015 Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence for our Day Tours. We would like to thank all our past guests who have taken the time to complete a review for us on TripAdvisor - we appreciate every comment. We love taking our guests hiking and biking in the countryside around Ronda and are delighted that they enjoy their experiences with us so much too. This is a beautiful and unspoilt area of Spain and it is a pleasure for us to be able to share it with our guests from around the world.

Commenting on the award, Marc Charron President, TripAdvisor for Business, said "TripAdvisor is pleased to honour exceptional hospitality businesses that have received consistent praise and recognition by travellers on the site,”By putting a spotlight on businesses that are focused on delivering great service to customers, TripAdvisor not only helps drive increasing hospitality standards around the world, it also gives businesses both large and small the ability to shine and stand out from the competition.”

Note: Now in its fifth year, the award celebrates excellence in hospitality and is given only to establishments that consistently achieve great reviews on TripAdvisor. Certificate of Excellence winners include accommodations, eateries and attractions located all over the world that have continually delivered a superior customer experience.  

When selecting Certificate of Excellence winners, TripAdvisor uses a proprietary algorithm to determine the honourees that takes into account the quality, quantity and recency of reviews and opinions submitted by travellers on TripAdvisor over a 12-month period as well as business’s tenure and ranking on the Popularity Index on the site.  To qualify, a business must maintain an overall TripAdvisor bubble rating of at least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.
