BikeHike Adventures

In our 32 years operating BikeHike we have seen annual trends to where people want to go and this year it is Norway. And it's not hard to see why, it's one of the most dramatically beautiful countries that I've ever visited and there is every kind of adventure sport you can imagine in Norway.

The best season to visit is July and August.

There are so many reasons to get to Bolivia before the crowds discover it. Bolivia is known for having the world's largest salt flat, the Salar de Uyuni, the highest navigable lake in the world, Lake Titicaca, the high-altitude capital city of La Paz, a unique cable car system called Mi Teleférico, the notoriously dangerous "Death Road" (North Yungas Road), a diverse indigenous culture with 37 official languages, and the practice of "Cholita wrestling" where indigenous women participate in wrestling matches while wearing traditional attire.

If Peru is on your radar than I highly recommend going and seeing Paddington in Peru.  I saw it yesterday and it’s a wonderful film, with great cinematography. It will leave you with the biggest smile and lots of inspiration for visiting this beautiful country.

Paddington is a white spectacle bear which can be found in the Peruvian Andes and rainforests.  I actually saw one in Machu Picchu, which is a rare occurrence, but what an absolute blessing.

Who wants to go to Peru?

More adventure than any bear can bear.Paddington gets lost in the jungle in – coming exclusively to theatres February 14.Follow Us on Socia...

Colombia comes to Vancouver to give us as taste of the flavours this upcoming destination has to offer, and let me share, there is an abundance of things to do and see in Colombia. Firstly, there are more bird species in Colombia than any other country on the planet. There are university towns, coffee farms, turquoise seas and whitesand beaches, quaint colourful villages, beautiful people, and it is one of the top biking destinations on the planet. Trish has cycled up to the summit of Letres, an 80km, 3220 metre climb, and the longest bike climb in the world.

Romania, one of our hidden gems of a destination, is on the verge of becoming a bigger tourist attraction this year. Both Vogue Magazine and CNN Travel have recommended Romania as a stellar destination to visit.

We recommend going before it changes. It's still one of the few places left on earth that hasn't been changed by mass tourism.

Plus Ramona, our Romanian guide, is another BikeHike favourite. She gives our traveller’s the insiders perspective. Expect to experience Romania as a local with her by your side.

We are soon entering the season for beautiful Peru. Inca Trail tickets are now on sale and many dates are selling out quickly. Late April to November is the best time to visit this wonderful destination. And if you go, the Amazon region of Porto Maldonado is highly recommended.

New York Times has chosen the Galapagos Islands as the second best place to visit in 2025. We are already seeing an increase in demand. We highly recommend it as a bucklist destination, plus it's led by Jorgen, one of our top BikeHike guides.

For those of you that follow your leader Jorgen, we just confirmed our June departure for Bolivia with him and October is likely going to confirm as well.

This trip is one of our best wildlife trips for those among you that love animals and also for those who want to travel away from the crowds and experience a country before tourism has changed it.

I love receiving pics from past groups that I've led. This was a custom adventure race that we put together in Costa Rica 20 years ago and it was the trip of a lifetime. Now that all their kids are grown, this group is back for round two in a different locale.

80% of our trips nowadays are customized for small groups of travellers, so if you have an itch for something specific for your small group (minimum 4 people) we can build your dream vacation.

This short film is an important watch. The Zambezi River is approved to be dammed, and how locals will lose their livelihoods. Please spread the word and maybe we'll help to stop the damages.

While porters on the Zambezi River hone their kayaking skills, a controversial dam threatens to take away their livelihood and vanish a globally renowned river.

What a great idea...at the library in Utrecht, Netherlands. You can recharge your devices while keeping fit. This speaks volumes about the health and wellness of the Dutch.

I am scouting a new adventure in the stunningly beautiful Fijian Islands – an undiscovered gem that absolutely belongs on your travel wishlist.

There are direct flights from Vancouver, Los Angeles, and New York, so getting here is more convenient than ever, especially from the West Coast of North America. But once you arrive, the real magic begins.

The Fijian people are some of the friendliest and most hospitable I’ve ever encountered. Fiji also boasts the third largest reef in the world – making its snorkelling and diving experiences some of the best on the planet. The island's highlands are home to remote indigenous communities who live traditionally off the land and are still preserving their rich cultural ways of life, which is very rare to find nowadays.

Stay tuned for more updates as I dig deeper into this wonderful country.
