Welcome to Patagonia, a land of breathtaking contrasts. Here, wide open spaces meet enchanting rainforests, bright blue glacier-fed lakes, roaring whitewater rivers, sprawling archipelagos, and the majestic Andes Mountains. Split between southern Argentina and Chile, this mysterious territory is where RIDE Adventures was born in 2010, and for many, it offers the ultimate riding experience.
Despite the gradual increase in paved routes—about 10% each year—the allure of Patagonia’s rugged beauty remains untouched.
Our pre-packaged options are just the beginning. Whether you prefer riding solo, with a group, or simply want to RIDE, we are here to craft your perfect motorcycle adventure. Use our Contact Form to share your vision, and we’ll help you choose from our curated options or create a custom trip tailored to your specific desires.

Motorcycle trips in Patagonia will typically involve flying into Santiago, Chile (SCL) and possibly another regional flight within Chile to your adventure departure point.
Duration: Patagonia tours are typically 10-18 days, depending on whether you'll enjoy some non-riding activities like world class rafting on the Futaleufu River, fly-fishing on the River Baker, or any of the other great outdoor sporting activities that make Patagonia so special. Also, including a finish in Ushuaia at that "End of the World" typically adds 2-4 days to your trip.
Dates: From late-September through April (in South American summertime, don't forget the seasons are opposite from the northern hemisphere!)
Motorcycle Options: Honda Africa Twin, BMW F700GS, F800GS, R1200GS, and R1200GS Adventure
Weather: Be prepared for anything, as Patagonia is ever-changing. In the same day, you could experience freezing temperatures, sunshine and warmth, and of course rain, depending on what area of Patagonia you're in. If your trip goes all the way to Ushuaia, you can end up seeing snow even in the middle of South American summer as it's only 700 miles from Antarctica at the "End of the World!"
Tour Formats: Self-Guided "Fly & RIDE" packages, Guided Group Motorcycle Tours, and Self-Guided, Truck Supported trips. (Each tour page will explain "Inclusions" per package.) We also have 4x4 adventure travel packages in the Patagonia region too (as well as Chile, Argentina, and Bolivia), so you can bring your non-riding friends and family along!
Begin your adventure with airport transfers to your starting hotel and a welcome dinner. Get ready to experience some of the most precious, raw nature and incredible scenery in the world! As you cross the Andes mountains and the Argentine border multiple times, you'll immediately witness the rugged beauty of Patagonia's open spaces. The combination of vast plains, known as "pampas," and intimate rainforest canopies, coupled with diverse weather conditions, creates a unique riding experience. Properly packed for the adventure, riders often find exhilaration in enduring Patagonia's tough winds and climate. This deep connection with nature keeps riders coming back again and again.
As you seep into Patagonia’s endless display of bright blue lakes and rivers, year-round snow-capped mountains, awe-inspiring glaciers, and lush green rainforests, you'll feel like you're in a motorcycle rider's paradise. Iconic sites like Torres del Paine, The Perito Moreno Glacier, The Carretera Austral, and Mount Fitz Roy are typically included in our tour routes. If your goal is to reach Ushuaia, known as “The End of the World,” that can be the ultimate highlight of your adventure!
