Melipeuco Explorer Tours 2024/2025

“Its a bit difficult to describe this without using the usual clichs; this must be one of the most beautiful places in the World - at least when the sun shines! Massive mountains, huge lakes, amazing snow capped volcanoes. Its odd no one in the UK has heard of it. For the most part it is sparsely populated and there is a wonderful feeling of emptiness.As with similar trips by this tour operator the itinerary was interesting, fast paced and expertly delivered. We had a great time with a super bunch of people. We came away with a sense of awe.The cycling was good along quiet roads. The ride over the Andes was challenging (700m ascent in 7km) and a bit technical - we managed it by stopping every mile and survived”

“If you enjoy your scenery,and a good variation in your cycling ( mix of road and off-road ) then this trip is for you. It is quite challenging in parts,but is well within the abilities of a reasonably fit and competent cyclist ( I am 67 years old but reasonably fit,and I managed without much difficulty,although generally at back end of a very fit group of good cyclists ! ). We were exceptionally fortunate with the weather-dry,sunny,warm-unusual in an area noted for rainfall.”

“This trip surpassed my previous bike trips with this tour operator by a country mile. The scenery was truly outstanding, the cycling manageable while challenging and it was organised and supported in the most exceptional way by the local team. I could not recommend it too highly.”
