Was there anything you should have known and were not told?     (X) NO     (   ) YES Please give more details to explain your response What could we do to improve this ride? Maybe smaller groups How would you rate the difficulty of this ride out of 10 where 1 is very easy and 10 is very advanced? 6 Please explain why you scored it as you did There was a varied mixture of riders in the group and the leader Vitaly kept everybody happy. If you didn;t want to gallop there was always an alternative, so you could opt out whenever. Would you recommend Unicorn Trails to your friends?     (   ) NO     (X) YES Please give more details to explain your response I have already asked for 2008 brochures to be sent to other people May we use you as a reference for other people wishing to go on this ride?     (   ) NO     (X) YES Any other comments An excellent holiday and would recommend anyone even if they were on there own to try it. There was a mixture of groups and individuals and everybody looked after everyone. Can;t wait until next year. Unicorn comments
