This 10-day off-road expedition is designed for riders seeking rugged terrain, cultural immersion, and true exploration.
The route takes you deep into the wild heart of Santander and parts of Boyacá, where compacted red-clay roads wind through emerald mining towns, remote pueblos, and colonial villages. Famous for its fast, flowing dirt tracks, Santander offers some of the best off-road riding in Colombia. But be prepared: just a little rain can transform these roads into slick, muddy challenges that test both skill and endurance. Along the way, you’ll pass through historic towns like Guadalupe, Socorro, and Barichara, each with its own charm, history, and welcoming small-town spirit.
A highlight of the journey is the descent into Chicamocha Canyon, one of Colombia’s most breathtaking natural landscapes, where dramatic cliffs, winding roads, and panoramic views combine for an unforgettable ride. Between rugged trails, waterfalls like Ventanas de Tisquizoque, and cultural experiences in towns such as San Vicente de Chucurí & Guadalupe, this tour is a true rally into Colombia’s wild side, built for adventurous riders eager to discover hidden corners of the eastern Andes.
Highlights: Guatapé Rock, Hacienda Nápoles (Doradal), Emerald country off-road to Otanche, Ventanas de Tisquizoque Waterfall, historic pueblos Vélez, Guadalupe, Socorro, Barichara, Zapatoca, and Los Santos, Las Gachas natural rock pools (near Guadalupe), Chicamocha Canyon National Park descent and views, Cascada Manchego and Cascada de los Caballeros (optional), San Gil (Adventure Capital of Colombia), San Vicente de Chucurí, and a high-speed highway return to Medellín.
Notes: Expect a mix of fast dirt trails, compact red-clay off-road sections, mixed terrain, and high-speed highway stretches. Weather can quickly change conditions, turning dry dust into mud, so riders should be prepared for all off-road scenarios. This is an experienced-level adventure, suitable for riders experienced with dirt, mud, and variable terrain, who also enjoy cultural stops in remote pueblos and historic towns.

Our routes are designed for intermediate riders with some off-road experience. You don’t need to be an expert, but you should feel comfortable riding on different surfaces. About half of the route is on unpaved roads, so basic off-road training before the trip is recommended to improve your safety and riding enjoyment. This tour is not suitable for complete beginners, but we can customize or suggest more advanced routes for experienced riders.
You’ll ride on a mix of smooth paved roads, gravel and dirt tracks, dusty washboard surfaces, and rocky sections. The journey also takes you over high mountain passes, but we don’t stay at altitude long enough for altitude sickness to be a concern. Every day offers variety, with plenty of chances to stop, take in the views, and enjoy local sights.
We keep a relaxed and comfortable pace, always prioritizing safety and enjoyment. Expect about five to six hours of actual riding each day, with breaks for lunch, photos, and sightseeing. Including stops, you’ll spend around eight hours out exploring before settling in for the evening to unwind, stroll through town, and enjoy a good meal.
Colombia’s weather depends on altitude rather than seasons, making it an excellent year-round riding destination. Lowlands and coastal areas are warm to hot, with temperatures between 85–100°F (29–38°C), while high mountains can be cool or even near freezing at night. Rain showers can happen any time, especially in the mountains, and fog or snow is possible at higher elevations. Packing both breathable gear for hot days and warm layers for cooler areas will keep you comfortable.
A helmet, protective riding gear, gloves, and sturdy boots or shoes are required. Because northern regions can be hot year-round, we recommend lightweight gear with good ventilation, paired with warmer clothing for the mountains. Rain gear and an open dual-sport helmet with goggles for dusty conditions will make your ride much more enjoyable.
Your safety is our highest priority. Guided tours follow carefully planned routes within “green zones,” which are considered safe and stable. For rentals, we provide clear route recommendations and mark areas to avoid. With our guidance, you’ll find Colombia to be a safe, welcoming country where locals are friendly and always willing to help.
You’ll need a valid passport with at least six months’ validity, a motorcycle driver’s license, and an International Driver’s Permit. Visa requirements vary by nationality, so check with your local embassy or consulate before traveling. We also recommend consulting a travel doctor well in advance for immunization advice. If you are not a U.S. passport holder and are transiting through the United States, you may need an ESTA travel authorization.
All motorcycles come with basic medical insurance that covers injury to you and to third parties. This does not include coverage for material damage to third parties or damage to the motorcycle itself. Any damage to the motorcycle during your rental or tour is your responsibility.
Our tours include reliable, easy-to-ride fully equipped motorcycles, a personal bilingual guide with basic mechanical skills and tools, medical insurance, riding gear, rain jackets . Our tours take you deep into remote landscapes or vibrant towns for an authentic taste of Colombia few ever see.
You just need to pack smart. Bring one solid pair of riding boots (plus sandals if you want), lightweight and versatile clothing, and stick to merino wool for comfort in all climates. Keep luggage small and avoid overpacking, laundry is easy to arrange on the road. Skip heavy or bulky items, extra shoes, and anything you can’t afford to lose. The lighter you travel, the better your ride.

We had such a great experience! We needed a bike rental last minute, and he was super helpful and made the whole process really easy. We were visiting from the USA, so it was also a big plus that he speaks English. Communication was great from the beginning and we felt very well taken care of. He also gave us some really good recommendations on places to check out and how to get around the area, which we really appreciated. Overall, great service, friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. We’ll definitely be renting from him again when we come back to Colombia for our next vacation in December. Highly recommend! 🇨🇴🙌Posted on Google![]()

These guys provide the perfect bikes for Colombia. They aren’t the overweight BMW GS models that might fall on you on a dirt road, leaving you unable to pick them up. Instead, these are the ideal bikes for the conditions you will encounter while riding through the Colombian mountains. This team not only provides bikes in excellent condition with high-quality tires, but they also help you map out routes and destinations you might never have considered. I highly recommend renting from them and working with them on your planned route to ensure an amazing experience in Colombia. I have now rented from them four or five times, and every experience has been perfect.Posted on Google![]()

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Colombia Motorcycle Rental & Tour Co.! I rented a Honda XRE 300 and followed a route recommended by Tom, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip to Colombia. The route was incredible amazing roads, beautiful landscapes, small towns, mountains, and places I probably would never have discovered on my own. Tom was fantastic from the very beginning. We first got in touch through WhatsApp, and from that moment on he was always available whenever I needed anything. He gave me all the details about the route, great recommendations for places to visit, where to stay overnight, and things worth seeing along the way. It honestly felt like having personal support throughout the entire trip. He is a true professional, extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in making sure you have the best possible experience. The Honda XRE 300 was also in perfect condition, reliable, and a great choice for exploring Colombia. I had complete confidence in the bike throughout the trip. A huge thank you to Tom and Colombia Motorcycle Rental & Tour Co. for everything. The whole experience exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely rent from them again when I come back to Colombia. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to experience Colombia by motorcycle! 🇨🇴🏍️Posted on Google![]()

We couldn’t be happier with our experience and had an absolutely unforgettable motorcycle adventure in Colombia! Tom took the time to sit down with us beforehand, understand exactly what we were looking for, and tailor the entire route perfectly to our needs. He also gave us so many great tips and recommendations along the way. We spent two weeks on the road and had the perfect mix of paved roads and off-road riding. The Hero Xpulse bikes were fantastic — reliable, comfortable, and capable enough to take us through every kind of terrain we encountered. What really made the experience special was that Tom was always available throughout the entire trip whenever we had questions or needed advice. You could really tell that he cared about us having the best possible experience. Thank you, Tom, for an incredible tour and an unforgettable adventure! We will definitely be back! 🇨🇴🏍️Posted on Google![]()

Seriously, the coolest adventure imaginable! Colombia Motorcycle Rental & Tour Co exceeded our expectations in every way. Tom was incredibly helpful and attentive to all of our questions and put us on the perfect bike for our trip to Jardín and Fredonia. He gave us expert guidance and made the trip that much better! Santhiago delivered the bike right to us, and gave us clear instructions concerning the laws in Colombia for riding. He was very kind and added to our peace of mind. Even after the rental, Tom was very kind and helpful with the closure process, and made us feel very comfortable with everything. He also recommended future rides and destinations, as well as giving us helpful tips as foreigners to experience a smoother time in Colombia. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to experience a trip like none other! Tom and his crew are 10 out of 10! We will be back!!Posted on Google![]()

Excellent experience. I booked a self-guided tour and the service was great from before I even arrived in Colombia, answering all my questions in advance. On the day of the tour, I got a full briefing on the routes and stops, which really helped me navigate with confidence. 100% recommended for anyone looking to explore by motorcycle with the flexibility of a self-guided tour, backed by solid support. I’ll definitely book with them again!
