overall, would recommend it, but with some caveats Here are the pros… The guides are terrific The bikes are in good condition, even though we had one break. I think generally speaking, they’re well maintained The support vehicles, the “superjeeps“that can go anywhere, are certainly useful to have access to when they’re needed, especially if somebody needs a “rescue“ or a “bike swap“ Iceland is great, but not sure the operator gets credit for that other than figuring out some pretty good routes, and certainly the beauty of the riding is pretty terrific caveats for people booking to consider Some of accommodations are mediocre at best and vary quite significantly. for what you’re paying, as a group at least, it feels below standards. sure, sometimes you’re in remote locations and maybe it’s the best that could be found, and that’s okay, but be aware Be sure you know exactly what you’re getting yourself into lodging wise. Set your expectations and perhaps have some conversation with the operator about where you’re going to be staying and making sure it’s up to your standards or understanding when it’s not going to be Speaking of, booking accommodations that they have not personally laid eyes on is just not acceptable. we ran into a total snafu at what can only be described as a youth hostel and we had to basically ride in the middle of the night to find somewhere else to stay. to their credit, they fixed it when we described it as unacceptable. But it would’ve been better to have avoided it in the first place. when a rider has an injury and has to be taken to a hospital, you would just sort of expect some sort of follow-up messaging to ask if they’re OK. There was none.

The 6 Day Iceland Motorcycle Adventure with Ride With Locals was one of the best trips of my life. The organization was flawless and the support truck carried our luggage from hut to hut so all we had to think about was riding. Every day was well planned, and there were backups and procedures ready if something went wrong. The food was a big surprise. After long days in the highlands, arriving at the mountain huts to hearty, delicious dinners was a real highlight. Most of all, I want to thank the guides: Brittany, Gareth, Toggi and Tristan. Their patience and care made all the difference. They read the group well, gave each rider the time and support they needed, and never made anyone feel rushed or out of place. They were always attentive to safety without taking away any of the fun. Highly recommended. I hope to ride with you again!

Ride with Locals was top notch. The staff was outstanding, going above and beyond at every turn. They made sure each rider was having a great time, safe and comfortable. The bikes were in great shape as well. My wife and I highly recommend this trip . If we get the opportunity we will be back. -Erik and Shelley, Southern California USA

The Ride With Locals staff are over the top wonderful and their knowledge, experience and professionalism was incredible. The Iceland West Fjords experience was perfect. This trip way over shot my expectations!

I had a great trip. Chris and Thor were, professional and extremely knowledgeable. The terrain was stunning. The food was exceptional. I will be back for the highlands trip next year. Thanks for a great time.
