Route planning was the strong point — long days, but the stops were in the right places. No hesitation recommending them.

One of the bikes had problems from day two and the spare took a while to arrive.

Machines were well maintained and the daily briefings were short and useful. Good value for what's included.

Days were longer than advertised and we arrived after dark more than once. Crew were professional without being stiff about it.

Gorno-Badakhshan on two wheels is the way to see it. No complaints about the organisation.

7 days of proper riding. The support vehicle was never far when someone needed it. Worth every rupee.
