Our Philosophy

Trek, Cycle, Climb, Explore

At Clermont Expeditions, the journey truly is the destination. We share your passion for adventure. We want to share with you our appreciation for the beauty and culture of some of the most unique corners of the world. We specialize in trekking, mountain biking, and cycling expeditions. We offer flexible itineraries for small groups tailored to the needs of our guests. We mix structured touring with an open mind to offer you an original and captivating travel experience.

Your Adventure, Your Itinerary

At Clermont Expeditions, we work with you to plan your adventure. We can build on pre-designed itineraries or we can develop a unique adventure to meet your personal goals. You can choose a combination of trekking, cycling, or climbing! We also offer voyages for women only. We can meet your needs in English, French, or Spanish.

Small Groups, More Flexibility

Our excursions are designed for small groups to ensure that our clients enjoy a safe, flexible, and exciting travel experience. Our group may encounter an interesting detour, a community festival, a celebration, or even be asked to join a wedding. Traveling in a small group allows us to take advantage of these spontaneous events while traveling. We take care of our clients, even if it means birthday cake and candles at 12,000 feet!

Immerse Yourself in the Culture

At Clermont Expeditions, we want you to share our love of South America. We want you to experience both the physical and cultural beauty of our destinations. And we get close to the locals! Past voyages have included the transport of donated books and school supplies to remote villages accessible only by foot. We engage local support, including guides, cooks, and porters, ensuring that your experience will be a memorable one.

Have your own group?

We will arrange a customized trip for you designed to suit your preferences for the dates and destinations that are convenient for you. Contact us to arrange a personalized trip for yourself or to join a group.

Personalized attention

Because you deal directly with the owner of the company, you can be assured of the success of your trip. All of our adventures are personally planned by our guide. Each participant will receive personalized attention, from the planning stage to each phase of the expedition. Contact us to learn more, arrange a personalized trip for yourself, or to join a group.

Adventure, Comfort and Level of Difficulty

Because we love to combine adventure with comfort, all our trips are fully supported by a 4×4 vehicle for cycling, and with porters or mules for trekking and climbing. We tailor your itinerary to your goals and your physical ability. The level of difficulty of our trips is gauged not only on physical fitness, but also on adaptation to altitude, extreme weather conditions, comfort, food, and isolation. Therefore we ask you to carefully read each trip description to decide whether the trip is appropriate for you.
