  While I ride my bike daily through the city, my husband has not cycled in years, so before doing the Death Road we wanted to do an easier trail to... read more get familiar with the bikes, and a bit with downhill riding. We found Gravity who also offer the Soul Trail, a half-day excursion right outside La Paz. It was the best choice we could have made. Noel the guide and Guillermo the diver were amazing people, and great fun. Noel made sure we learned to handle the bikes well to prepare for the Death Road so the next day on the Death Road we were riding quite confidently.
And the scenery on Soul Trail is just breathtaking - stunning Palca Canyon with Mt. Illimani in the background and condors circling above us.
As many people have already commented on Death Road just briefly: It is perfectly doable even if you are not an experienced mountain biker, and are afraid of heights. Just take it slowly and enjoy the scenery. I was continuously the last one in our group and not once felt rushed. The equipment is very good and our guide Gustavo and was very knowledgable and kind, making sure to brief us in detail at every stop about the road conditions ahead. And lunch (yummy!) and the guided tour to the animals at Senda Verde were excellent.
To sum up: do the amazing Soul Trail tour, you will not regret it.
And if you have time, do the Death Road too.

  Amazing tour to death road. Our guides noel and Marco were outstanding. They made sure everyone was safe throughout the whole experience. We also had a small group which was... read more great as some of the other tour groups had way too many people and it was obvious that they couldn't provide adequate safety with such big numbers. I would say this is the best laid out tour we have done on our travels. It also finishes up in a sanctuary for animals which is amazing!

  We did the MTB Tour of the Death Road on the 15th of October. We booked a group trip but another couple cancelled their booking so we had Kenny (our... read more guide) just for ourselves. The Trip was really good and Kenny always took good care of us. He was very attentive and gave a lot of important instructions.

The mountainbikes were in a good condition and riding with them was a lot of fun. Even if i do not like mountainbiking that much it has been a great experience and we got many nice photos from Kenny as well.

We can highly recommend this tour operator.

  What a fantastic tour. Kenny and Marco were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and patient. We stopped throughout the ride to know what was coming next and rest. Kenny explained everything, took the... read more safety very seriously, but made sure we always had fun too. The bikes were top quality, and even had additional checks during the tour before the harder parts to make sure they were in perfect condition. The ride was exhilarating but I never felt unsafe - the road is wide enough for a bus. The snacks were perfect and a really good amount of food. And the absolute highlight was finishing at the animal refuge - La Senda Verde. I won't spoil it but it was absolutely amazing.

  It was a great adventure with amazing scenery, very good bikes and equipment and great guides - Kenneth and Marco did a very good job, made sure everyone felt safe,... read more checked the bikes regularly and took great photos.

  My experience with Gravity was amazing! Kenny is a masterful guide throughout the ride, and finishing at Senda Verde refuge was a huge plus.

  Super pro and super fun instructors. The safety training was great, the bikes are in great condition, and they know every corner of the road.
I highly recommend them !

  If safety is your main concern riding the worlds most dangerous road, ride with gravity!
Gravity is one of the safest operators with the best equipment and they also... read more give back to the community as a portion of what you pay to ride also goes to an animal refuge where we ended our journey and had a delicious lunch.
The ride itself was an amazing experience
Kenny, Alba and Jonny kept us safe on the worlds deadliest road.
