    Amber

    Asked on December 2nd, 2025

    Is this trip available beginning April 5? Can I catch an outgoing flight on 4/14 at 18:00? Do you have daily distances and elevation gain available?

    Tour Details
    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten December 2025

      Yes, you can absolutely catch an outgoing flight on April 14 at 18:00. The program is designed to finish with enough time for a comfortable transfer to the airport that day. Here are the daily distances and elevation gain for the trip.

      Amber

      TravelerWritten December 2025

      I asked about comparing the difficulty of the two trips. Did you respond to that (or was that someone else)?

    Diane

    Asked on November 18th, 2025

    You show starting elevation and ending elevation. You don't show elevation gain per day. Those two parameters are different from one another

      TravelerWritten November 2025

      Now that makes more sense; thank you. (Although I wonder why the gain is a range, normally it's a specific number). Anyhow, could you do the same for the 7 -day ride in Ecuador as well. Thank you

    • Responsible Travel South AmericaOperatorWritten November 2025

      Total Elevation Gain for 10-day tour: Day 2: 520 m, Day 3: 650 m, Day 4: 580 m, Day 5: 530 m, Day 7: 380 m, Day 8: 420 m, Day 9: 820 m
