7day New Zealand bicycle venture on Alps2Ocean Cycle Trail was Spectacular‼️❤️Mark, owner of our host, Cycle Ventures, was very helpful and personally joined us for our beginning and ending meals, and at other times. Our trip guide, Harry, was AMAZING and so personable. 💯💯💯‼️‼️‼️ This cycle trip exceeded my expectations. The New Zealand environment we biked was full of incredible beauty. The trip was perfectly planned with on-trail stops to regroup and have breaks and lunch together; and very nice accommodations and evening meals together and activities. Rental bikes were very good quality and Harrry conducted daily maintenance checkups on the bikes. I had an E bike and I think that is definitely the way to go. It allows you to spend more time looking around and less time trying to figure out which gear to be in to climb the next hill. Just WOW‼️ dale from South Carolina, USA

The team at 57hours were very helpful and kind. And they were just as excited as I was, when it was time for an amazing trip. It’s definitely worth booking through 57hours. Thank you once again.

I have traveled a lot with different upscale travel groups, mostly active hiking or biking. This was my first experience with 57 hrs. It was fabulous. Small group of jovial international folks, individual attention, great guide, a fun experience. I will definitely travel with 57 hours again.

Sensational. The ride route was spectacular - the bridges ride at the start and rural Shikoku all stunning.. Some challenging bits, but manageable with the help and guidance provided. My wife and I were pleased we chose E-bikes, and I'd recommend them to anyone who is not a fairly strong rider. With E-bikes most riders would be fine. Great scenery and conditions. Sam has found many back roads/trails to largely avoid busy roads. The accommodation and food (dinners often multi-course banquets) were a real culinary and cultural experience. The level of organization, helpfulness and enthusiasm of the guides was first rate.

This was our first time using 57hours and we were pleasantly surprised. Incredible hospitality, expert cycling leadership and guidance and an experienced mechanic in support as well, this adventure was over the top. The accommodations were excellent and we enjoyed some of the best seafood dinners we have ever had in Japan. Shikoku is the road less traveled and we would highly recommend this trip. Hidden Japan Travels is a team worth using for Shikoku Japan.

Wonderful trip to experience with my daughter. The hike challenged me in so many ways, but the feeling of accomplishment when we reached the summit of Mt Salkantay will stay with me forever. The pre-trek acclimation activities were awesome, we loved every minute. Except maybe the 6 hours downhill - my knees didn't love that lol. Our guide Yaritza is local from Cusco, and so knowledgeable and passionate about Peru. I can't imagine doing this experience without a local guide. Our chef Modesto kept us well nourished with amazing meals on trail - I still can't believe the things he prepared for us! Damian, our horseman, transported our gear to each camp and helped Modesto in the camp kitchen. Everyone on this team was so supportive and kind, and really helped us experience Peru like a local. Being able to share this journey with my daughter made it a trip I will never forget. Thank you Crossover Peru and 57hours. I highly recommend, and look forward to booking more travel through 57hours.

If you are at all considering this company's trips, just do it. Our 6-day Shimanami Kaido/Shikoku trip was a fabulous ride and an even more fabulous gastronomic experience. Immerse yourself in local Japanese cuisine. Seiji was an extremely conscientious and careful guide. He did everything possible to ensure our safety and comfort. He was in communication with Miho in a support vehicle, receiving and relaying info on traffic, where to pull over, etc. and Abe followed us to make sure we we safe from traffic and took care of all our bikes' needs. We look forward to another trip with Hidden Japan Travel

10/10 would do this trip again. We arranged it as a private tour to ensure we had a unique experience. It was a truly customized trip which was an adventure of a lifetime. As we are all on similar bikes / speed it was so easy to be flexible to change routes if needed. The guides truly went above and beyond to make it a unique experience for us - from local food stops, plenty of on road snack stops and great viewing stops.
