Once in a lifetime experience - We had an amazing time! The guides are very knowledgeable, provide super cool photos, food and equipment. They make sure to check in with the clients to see... read more how they are doing.

August 18, 2024Best tour provider in La Paz best tour! - The Death Road tour is a must in La Paz. It's so much fun! I am glad I chose Gravity to do it among all the options you pass by... read more in downtown La Paz and in the internet. The itinerary was perfect, starting with a nice breakfast while our guide Noel gave us instructions about how the tour would happen. Then we got on a van that carried us (we were a group of five that day) along with the bikes up to the starting point. They provided us with all the necessary gear including mandatory helmets and gloves, and optional pads. Also, we got to use jackets and overpants, which saved us from getting our clodes muddy! They also provide you with camera mounts if you request it.
For the first part we went down an asphalt road, always with one guide in the front and one in the back of the group. If anyone was not so confident and wanted to lag behind, they would support us, same as for confident riders up front. Always looking for our safety and giving instructions to prevent accidents. This was good to get used to the bikes and the gear, which were all top class.
Then we got back on the van (the bikes were carried on top) and finally started the Death Road downhill. The road itself is a little bit rocky and winding but nothing too hard even for people who don't usually mountain bike. It is so much fun! The view is amazing and the guides take a lot of pictures and provide us with information along the way.
In the end we reached a river where you can take pictures with a nice Death Road sign, and then we had lunch in an animal sanctuary where we could optionally go on a small tour and see a lot of animals including bears and jaguars! This is a Gravity exclusive, so you will not get it on other tour providers. Also, we got a nice "I survived the death road" tshirt as a souvenir. 🙂
A huge shout out to Noel and Omar, our biking guides, and also to Don Guille, our driver. You guys were amazing!

January 19, 2023What A Day | Thank you to Kenneth & Christian for the memories! - Kenneth and Christian did an outstanding job. Excellent briefing on bike handling pre tour and before each section of the downhill tour.
Kenneth is the encyclopedia of Yungas /... read more Camino de la Muerte. Starting with the Paraguayan POW from Chaco War that had to build the road Kenneth took us vividly through history and provided background on the road and its development to one of the greatest tourist attractions in La Paz area. Also great tips on how and where to travel the road.
Christian was the lead cyclist, photographer, mechanic and bike fitter. In team with the driver of the support vehicle they did an amazing job regarding pleasure, safety, knowledge transfer, riding skills and well professional First Aid. Last but not least Kenneth and also Christian have excellent English skills in order to assess requirements, explain and share.
For the team it is daily business. For us on the receiving end it was an exclusive experience. Like we owned the road. 😉

January 11, 2023By far the best company doing the Death Road - Gravity already has so many 5 star reviews I don't think it needs another, but I had such a good experience I felt obliged to write one. This company is... read more BY FAR the best and most professional agency doing the Death Road -- the difference was immediately noticeable when I saw some of the other groups, in terms of the quality of the bikes and gear, the group size, and the level of attention. Gravity carries safety gear other groups don't carry, and when accidents happen the other companies often end up relying on Gravity. My guide Noel was fantastic -- combining great technical knowledge with a fantastic personality. I would go another tour with him anytime! Thanks for a 5 star experience!!
