One of the best trips of our lives!
Ayres Adventures took us on one of the best trips of our lives. With 13 friends we rode for a week through Patagonia.

One of the best trips of our lives. Thank you!

Thanks for making our 10th wedding anniversary vacation a memorable one.
Ron,
We would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for allowing us to be part of the tour, and also the opportunity to experience a wonderful bike trip. I proudly wear my Stelvio Pass T-shirt.
The choice of hotels and restaurants were great, exceeding our expectations many times. Mauricio's and John's ability to make everyone comfortable and part of the team is amazing. Most importantly, we made good friends and we are proud to be associated with your company.
Thanks again for making our 10th wedding anniversary vacation a memorable one.

Once you travel with Ayres Adventures there is no going back!
First class all the way! Awesome roads and amazing lodging. Staff brings the group together and makes everyone feel welcome and at ease. Gives us plenty of time on the bikes and off the bikes to enjoy our new friends. Does a great job dealing with the unexpected and last minute changes which are bound to happen with any event. Why go with any other group - once you travel with Ayres Adventures there is no going back - they are top notch. This is my 4th trip and saving my money for the next one.
John and Heidi's Adventures include:
New Zealand Top Down Adventure
Ushuaia and Antarctica
Africa Call of the Wild
Iron Butt Viking Run
Once again, we came away thrilled...
"The Antarctica trip was our fifth tour (or 6th if you count Hyder) with Ayres Adventures and once again we came away thrilled with the experience.
The Antarctica portion was a life changing event, much the same as our three trips in Africa with Ayres forever changed our view of the world. Having now toured on all 7 continents, we can say that while the trip to Antarctica is costly and can be difficult at times, it is worth every cent if you enjoy adventure travel to new places. It will change your perspective of our planet and all it entails in a way that is impossible to explain unless you have made the voyage!

The tour was much more than I expected
I left for the African Panorama anticipating a great time. I'd say the tour was much more than I expected.
John and Rob did a super job of organization. They were obviously in control at all times, which gave all of us riders a sense of security. They're also a couple of great guys who made everyone feel comfortable in strange surroundings.
The over-night stops were excellent, and the food was outstanding.
I think all of us agreed the trip to Kruger NP was the high-light of the trip.
This ride was truly an "adventure".
Mike's Adventures include:
African Panorama Adventure
The cruise to Antarctica will be an unforgettable time in our lives
Heidi and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on the recent Escape to Antarctica/Ushuaia tour. This was our first tour of this sort and any expectations we had were met and far exceeded. Your tour staff was excellent and helpful, as well as our traveling companions.
The cruise to Antarctica will be an unforgettable time in our lives. The ship and crew were all first class. The sights and wildlife in Antarctica are indescribable, and need to be experienced first hand to grasp the magnitude of the seventh continent. Walking amongst the penguins and the seals was a kick. This is an experience enjoyed by few, due to the limited numbers allowed to this truly wild place.
We thank you for the opportunity of a life time to have joined you on this tour, and hopefully we can join another Ayres Adventures tour in the future.
Bob and Heidi's Adventures include:
Ushuaia and Antarctica
Norwegian Viking Run
Yuma, Arizona
You won't be disappointed!
"I've taken two Ayres Adventures motorcycle tours, two years apart, on two continents - they were both topnotch! I don't normally treat myself to the finest things, but Ayres Adventures did treat us to the finest things, and they did it humbly, with knowing smiles on their faces. They knew the next site, the next route, or the next hotel, was going to knock our socks off. And, sure enough, it did!
I encourage anyone considering an overseas motorcycle trip to choose Ayres Adventures as your host. You won't be disappointed"
