    We meet at 7:30am to begin our once in a lifetime journey. We hop aboard our private transport en route to La Cumbre at 4700m. Once there, we get all our gear (helmets, gloves, knee/elbow pads, pants/jacket) and our top of the line bikes (Kona Full Suspension bikes with hydraulic disk brakes). Our bikes are maintained after every ride and we have over 100 bikes in our shop, ensuring you will get a bike that has been serviced and is adequate to your height. Also, the brakes are on the side you want them (different countries use different sides for the front/rear brake and you wouldn't want to grab the wrong brake because it's not set for your country). Our guides have an average of 10 years experience guiding on this incredible road. They give you detailed instructions before we start the ride to help keep you safe and comfortable on our descent. After our safety induction, we begin our ride. The first 24km of the ride are on the tarmac, this is a great chance for you to get a feel for your bike and the brakes and if you're up for it get some speed. The incredible andes show their splendor as we wind our way through this spectacular valley, taking small stops to catch the views and so the guides can explain upcoming sections. Eventually we arrive at Unduavi where every rider has to pay a road tax. Here we load up our bikes and do a big uphill on the bus.   The bus arrives to the top of the old road, known as Death Road. Your guides will give you a safety briefing and check all the bikes. The barren snow capped mountains we have passed by are long gone and we are now in the incredible cloud forest. We literally start above the clouds, then ride through and out of them into the lush jungle.  The last 40km of our ride are out of this world, as we curve our way down an incredible road carved out of the side of the andes, passing through waterfalls, rivers, small communities, down, down, down to the steaming jungle. The views of the valley are breathtaking and the rush of adrenaline and pure fun are incomparable. We have several stops along the way to take in the views and for our safety briefings.This is important so that you know about any corners or tricky sections of the road before you arrive and so that the guides can answer any questions, tell some jokes and give you some of the fascinating history of this road. We stop twice to refresh ourselves with a well earned snack and there is unlimited water provided during the ride. We end the ride at our jungle refuge where we enjoy a delicious buffet, a dip in the pool and relaxation. There are also hot showers and soap/shampoo/towels for you. After relaxing and celebrating our amazing ride, we hop in the bus for our 3.5 hour ride back to La Paz, where we will be dropped off near our hotels.   Many people say this is the best experience of their south America trip, make sure you do it safely with a reputable company who focuses on giving you an amazing ride.

The whole experience was great - I'd highly recommend using Barracuda if you're thinking of doing Death Road. Guides are really communicative with great English and will really let you fly down some sections of the road if you want to. Bikes were also in perfect condition - tyres had full grip, bikes had full suspension, brakes were very sharp. I saw other tour groups at the start of the day and their bikes were in nowhere near as good condition. Also great food at the end of the day.

I originally booked the Death Route but the night before Miguel contacted me and said he heard there was a protest roadblock scheduled for the day of the tour. He suggested to avoid that area and do the Chacaltaya Zongo tour instead so that is what we did. The next morning, our guide Remy Conde, explained the situation about the protest and roadblocks. None of the other tour agencies were able to get through and had to abandon the tour and return to La Paz. We were fortunate that Barracuda wanted us to have an experience and provided this for us. There was 11 of us on the tour. Both Remy and Alvaro, our guides were fantastic as was our bus driver Alex. All gear was supplied, jacket, pants, rain jacket, full face helmet, gloves, elbow and knees pads. The Kona bikes had dual suspension and were easy to handle. Remy was very attentive and forthcoming with information. Highly recommend using Barracuda. Affordable and very professional from start to finish. Safety was the number one priority and they genuinely went out of their way to ensure that we all had a great experience.

Excellent one day tour to death road - over 12 hours of guidance from our cycle gurus Chelo and Freddy, with Miguel our driver doing an equally excellent job. Safety was central to the trip but more importantly the guys were patient, entertaining and great to be around. It was a great experience. Highly recommend!
