I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Martin at Andes Adventure Bikes. I found him very professional. Not only did he help with purchasing a bike but also had useful advice and was quick to offer solutions if problems arose.

I cannot recommend going through Andes Adventure Bikes more highly.
Martin helped navigate the bureaucracy of Chile and sorted out all the paperwork needed to buy a new motorcycle, and further made sure that I had all of the paperwork needed to cross borders without an issue with the motorcycle.

Throughout, he was transparent about costs, highly organised and got everything done quickly so I didn’t have to spend too long in Santiago waiting for paperwork to process. As a traveller, he assisted with making the process of buying and later selling the motorcycle simple, helped organise motorcycle insurance in Chile and Argentina, and other necessities I wasn’t aware of.

Overall an excellent experience going through Andes Adventure Bikes, it was a far cheaper option than renting, and made my trip through Patagonia possible.

On my recent trip to South America, I had a very good experience with Andes Adventure Bikes. Without Martin Gerhardt, I would not have managed all the formalities surrounding purchasing a bike in Chile. As I didn’t know him beforehand, I didn’t want to agree to the remote authorization procedure in advance. At first, I thought I might be able to do it myself. In Santiago, I quickly realized that the registration process is very complicated and time-consuming. He finally helped me to get the Voge 300 Rally authorized and ready to travel. I could have saved myself a hell of a lot of time with the remote procedure offered. I have come to know Martin as a very reliable motorbike companion and a competent business partner with integrity. Should I plan another South American tour, I will certainly contact him again.

I have been dreaming of riding a motorcycle on a foreign continent for the past seven years. It was very meaningful for my life to be able to carry out this trip across six South American countries, touring the majestic scenery on a motorcycle that I cannot see in my home country, and to speak different languages and experience foreign cultures. I was able to spend exciting days. For various reasons, I was unable to bring my motorcycle with me and had to buy one locally, but Andes Adventure Bikes supported me at that time. Martin, who was in charge, was a gentleman and patiently explained things to me until I understood. Thanks to their support, I was able to finish the trip comfortably. If I have the opportunity to ride a motorcycle in Chile, I would like to use them again.

I had such an incredible time on a bike trip of a lifetime through Patagonia with my best mate, there is no way we could have pulled it off without the help from Martin. From the first contact Martin was responsive, knowledgeable and above everything else passionate. He went above and beyond to help us buy the bikes and then supported us throughout our travels with border crossings and eventually with selling the bikes. I could not recommend Martin and Andes Adventure Bikes more highly!

Thank you for your help and support! Your professionalism allowed us to fully enjoy and get the most out of our South American trip.

From remotely purchasing the bikes and handling the registration paperwork to route planning and the final sale of the motorcycles, you provided excellent backup and advice in a calm, flexible, and reliable manner.

Our trip became one of the best experiences we’ve had worldwide, thanks to your guidance. We’re happy to recommend your organization to anyone considering your services!

Without Martin, I probably would not have done my South America motorcycle trip. With his help, I experienced a very smooth and transparent purchasing process for my new motorcycle, as well as for the selling process. During my three-month trip, I had a very trustworthy companion in Martin, as well as helpful support for all my travel-related issues. I enjoyed significant support through Martin during my solo travel through South America and always valued his advice.

Thank you, Martin, for your professional and trustworthy relationship. Thank you, Martin, for making this possible!
