Testimonials
An absolutely fabulous adventure!
This was an absolutely fabulous adventure – the location, the lodging, the meals (!), the riding, the scenery and all the details made it perfect!
Starting from the pre-trip communication all the way through the departure back home, the team at Ayres handled everything perfectly. The guides (Claus and Axel) were wonderful, providing daily information and handled all the details seamlessly. The small group size (10 bikes) allowed the riders to interact and get to know each other. I’ve had lots of good days in my life but the day that started in Ingeli Forest lodge and finished in Kruger Park with an evening safari and sundowner cocktails in a dried riverbed was one of the best ever!
South Africa is a great place to visit and this is a fabulous way to visit. Thanks, Ayres Adventures !!
Peter's Adventures include:
Africa Southern Cross Adventure
Clayton, California
Ayres Adventures you have done it again!

My bucket list motorcycle tour to the European Alps with Ayres Adventures was indeed the trip of a lifetime. Great riding, great food, great hotel and great fun.

Switchback Challenge - The Alps
Africa Panorama Tour
Middleburg, FL
After this fantastic tour, I am afraid I can never do a "normal" vacation again!
Even though I had high expectations, I was not prepared for how heart achingly beautiful New Zealand is. Every day on the tour another stunning ride unfolded, each completely unique and full of surprises. The accommodations were equally unique and in prime spots, with nice meals in a variety of restaurants. Both tour leaders had a deep knowledge about the places we visited and taught us a lot. After this fantastic tour, I am afraid I can never do a "normal" vacation again!
Cordelia's Adventures include:

Getting a photo at the Arctic Circle sign and completing the Haul Road all the way to Deadhorse has been on my wish-list for some time
A hearty thank-you to you, and to your team, for all your efforts during the inaugural Prudhoe Bay Excursion. It was the most challenging ride I have ever been on.
Getting a photo at the Arctic Circle sign and completing the Haul Road all the way to Deadhorse has been on my wish-list for some time. Thanks to your professional and customer focused organization I was able to complete that goal.
I hope to see you, John, and Nuno on another one of your tours. Next time on a different continent. Best wishes to you as you travel the world.
Jack's Adventures include:
