We at Compass Expeditions have always prided ourselves on having an intimate knowledge of the regions that we in operate using our own bikes. We have developed a strong network of contacts and friendships over the decades and this all leads to a great ride for our clients.
In the regions we are not so familar with, we could fit a GPS to our bike, go for a ride then come back and offer our clients a new destination. We chose not to, instead we have carefully handpicked a number of first class local operators that themselves have an intimate knowledge of their land, their country.
In Europe we have partnered with Unicorn Adventures and selected a number of their exceptional tours to offer our clients.
When booking one of these tours through Compass Expeditions our clients will recieve a discount off the advertised price advertised on both Unicorn and Compass websites.
