"Getting on down in Australia - Alpine Way and landing vying the dream!" – thank you for this one Billy – last month's Tasmania and the High Country tour was AWESOME @biketruck @charleyboorman
While Compass Expeditions has a long history of running extraordinary motorcycle rides around the world, our driving adventure tours are not simply a mirror reflection of what we do on the motorbikes.
Each tour has been carefully researched, in a 4WD, despite us having operated in these regions since 2007 and knowing these regions intimately. Our driving adventure tours are completely different from our motorbike tours. Each tour has been handpicked for their compatibility with awesome small vehicle adventures, awe-inspiring scenery and amazing activities. Our mission is to unlock the best experiences in the world – we extensively research every tour, stay in the hotels, eat in every restaurant and take every excursion – all so we can share it with you. It is this forensic research that sets our tours apart and guarantees the best tour experience possible for our valued guests.
We’re not here to impress you with our motoring skills either – we’re here to furnish you with lifelong memories while experiencing the most incredible remote locations. Our 4WD tours are not extreme and you don’t need to be Bear Grylls to join one of our tours. We have access to an extensive range of excellent 4WD vehicles for our driving adventure tours, with vehicles ranging from the Toyota Hilux and Ford Rangers to Nissan Patrols Y61 and Landcruiser series 79 and 100s. These choose these vehicles solely for their ability to venture further off the beaten track than the crowded overland trucks and tour buses. We are going to the most remote locations on earth, but this is not extreme off-roading action adventure – these unique luxury experiences are built around safety and comfort. Likewise, we build our itineraries around short drives and amazing activities – there’s never a dull moment on a Compass tour.
We won’t be fording raging torrents or winching up cliff faces – all our 4WD adventure tours are suitable for families, including children, be it self-drive wher
On tour with Compass Expeditions – a compilation of footage taken an many of our short tours and Major Expeditions over the past few years it will give you a taste of the adventures that we at Compass Expeditions can offer motorcyclists all around the globe.

“102 days later we arrived in Magadan, becoming the first ever commercial tour company to complete The Road of Bones".
Compass Expeditions was the first Motorcycle Tour company to offer the London to Magadan Road of Bones tour back in 2007; here's an excerpt from our DVD about it.
One of life's most incredible adventures, this tour passes through the United Kingdom, France, Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia & Russia and covering some 28,500 kilometres. A true adventure taking some 105 days and up to 25 days of camping.
Geopolitical considerations means that this one is off limits for the moment, but if you're up for a major expedition, check out our offerings here, ranging from 40-100 days in the saddle:

"BEST BLOODY SCENERY ON EARTH – KYRGYZSTAN!"
Many people we speak to about our tours see our Kyrgyzstan Explorer tour and look at us quizzically. They know little or nothing about this, somewhat forgotten, ex-soviet state and have no idea of what to expect from a motorcycle tour of the fascinating country.
We think that this short video will give you a better idea of the epic scale and diverse nature of the landscape and the excellent riding opportunity that it affords the adventurous rider. Kyrgyzstan is off the well-trodden (and ridden) tourist route but may not be for too long, book your place on our tour there and beat the rush to what we believe will soon be on every adventure rider hit list.

It's not all hi-octane adventures! One of the most common pieces of feedback we receive from our guests is how incredible our excursions are, such as meeting this little fella in Kakadu National Park on our Australia Encompassed tour earlier this month.

My Patagonia by Richard Dwyer – "I wanted an experience, in particular South America. With my love of motorcycles I thought I could combine the two, and do an adventure through Patagonia. The adventure started in Santiago..."
