Helen Francis, Lively, Canada

This was the first organized trip that both my partner and I have made that involved biking in a part of the world we had never been to. Going into the vacation we were excited and also nervous - would we be able to keep up, were we ready, would we enjoy the group and the locations we visited? I am happy to say that we loved every moment of it. The preparation materials and the quick response to our questions and concerns ahead of the trip were tremendously helpful and reassuring. The hotel transfer was perfectly on time and again built our confidence that the trip we were about to embark upon would be well organised and it certainly was. We received able but not intrusive assistance from our 3 fine guides, German, Diego and Marcello. They were able to identify what we required and helped us with what ever our need was. Even when the support bus broke down their plan B plan was executed quickly and well. And of course the scenery and culture we experienced in Chile and Argentina was superb...

AJ Smith, London, England

Really great trip, every single day had incredible views. Crystal clear lakes and snow capped mountains and met some great people along the way. We couldn't climb the volcano unfortunately for the weather that day (though we had great views most days of volcanoes), but white water rafting was a great alternative. The guides were good fun, and they did a great job at altering the itinerary when needed. One of the best days was having fun locally on some dirt tracks in the hills when we had to spend an extra night in one town. The food and wine, everywhere, was so good. Argentina especially. A steak will never taste the same again!

Catherine Wyse, Vancouver, Canada

Stuart and I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The scenery was stunning and apparently we experienced the best weather of the season - if not a tad too hot at times! Rodrigo, John and Gustavo were excellent and made everyone feel part of the team regardless of level

Katje Stille, Hackney, London

Great trip again. The landscape in Patagonia is as I imagined it to be “ barren, wide, open, empty “ beautiful! Thank you for a fantastic experience. Everyone got along and it was a great group of people.

Ian and Lynne Hewitt, Asheville, NC, USA

For the two of us, although there were several things we were initially uncomfortable with, the tour turned into an unforgettable experience and an adventure of a lifetime. We saw and experienced things we would not have, had we tried to do it solo.

Peter Wilkinson, Leicester, England

Another superb trip and wonderful as an introduction to a continent I had not visited before.

John Blyth, Shipley, England, UK

This inaugural trip provided an insight into the fantastic scenery of this magnificent area and affording us close contact with local people and their way of life. The guides and support were outstanding leading us to some remote areas and arranging an unmissable opportunity to climb the active volcano on our 'rest day' in Pucon. As the team continues to strive for improvements, the friendships made and lessons learnt on this first trip will no doubt make future trips even more enjoyable, if that's possible!!

Vik Lomax, Edinburgh, Scotland

 I'm glad we bought a new camera for this trip as the scenery was stunning right from day one, with volcanoes, mountains and turquoise lakes aplenty. Dermot also brought that redspokes flavour to the tour, getting off the beaten track, meeting and staying with local families and listening to their stories (and sitting in their hot springs!). A great tour!

John Lingford, London, England, UK

Not quite the end of the world, but a long way south, redspokes Chile/ Argentina tour takes you through quite European looking farmland, round perfectly cone-shaped, snow covered volcanoes (extinct, mostly), and through groves of monkey puzzle trees as you cycle back into Chile from Argentina. Plenty of time to take it all in, even to climb a volcano if you wish! As varied as one comes to expect from a redspokes tour, something for everyone.

Richard Garlick, Bushey,England, UK

On this tour you see a lot of different scenery such as volcanoes, lakes, the pacific coastline and a huge variety of trees and plants. The treats in the cycling are timed well, the accommodation at the end of the day is sometimes charming, sometimes in a stunning location, but always comfortable. Do climb Villarica as it is an unforgettable adventure. The food and wine are so good you could find yourself putting on weight which is unusual for a cycling holiday.
