After finishing my fourth tour with Compass Expeditions over the last 5 years, it is an understatement to say that I enjoyed myself on this latest tour through Spain, Portugal, and Morocco. Riding along rolling hills and twisting back roads through the Andalusia region of Spain, the Algarve region of Portugal, and the Atlas Mountains of Morocco was sublime. Three weeks of great riding, unique and interesting accommodation, scenery to die for, delicious food, and a top notch Compass Team, made this adventure one that I didn’t want to end!
As with my previous Compass Expedition tours to South America (Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina) and Kyrgyzstan, the organization, planning, and execution of Compass tours is excellent. The old saying that “if everything goes to plan, then it’s not an adventure” is true for most Adventure tours. Unexpected things can happen on an extended motorcycle tour, including weather delays, civil unrest, mechanical issues, and sometimes accidents. But the Compass team are cool, calm, and collect, with an innate ability to problem solve and get the group back on track, always with a smile and easy going nature.
One special feature with Compass Expeditions is the nearly all-inclusive nature of the Tours. Petrol, tolls, accommodation, all breakfasts, lunches on riding days (scrumptious picnic lunches!), and a good number of the dinners, are included in the tour price, which makes for easy budgeting for the tour. Just throw in your spending money and you’re good to go. Transparent tour costs, excellent home office support before, during and after the tours, and tour guides passionate about adventure riding, makes for a fantastic combination in a Tour Company. How much do I recommend Compass Expeditions? Well, I just booked my 5th tour for next year!
Cheers Jerry and the Compass Team, keep up the great tours! - via
