Rave reviews on New Zealand Bicycle Cruise It’s our second time cruising with Santana. Impossible to believe but it rivaled or was even better than the first. A sampling of culture, history, scenery and some amazing rides. The tour staff provided solid service and support. The ship provided great accommodation and food. We’re grateful to owners/host Bill and Jan for a meaningful experience. Something my wife Fei, daughter Ellen, friend Greg and myself will talk about for years. We’re already signed up for two more cruises in 2025.

Japan Cruise by Santana Adventures The Japan Cruise was a great experience. Santana Adventures provided all of the necessary information in a timely manner. All of the details were taken care of. Bill and his staff were there every day to answer any questions. The pre and post tour hotels were wonderful. The M S Star Breeze is an excellent cruise ship. The choice of sightseeing locations was all encompassing. This is truly a vacation that I will long remember.

A great way to taste both the North and South Islands of NZ Well organized, great cycling options each day, terrific stops on both islands. This is my fourth Santana Adventure and I'm looking forward to two more that I've already happily booked.

We have done two Santana Adventures We have done two Santana Adventures, one to Tahiti and the second to New Zealand. We love riding our tandem, we love seeing the world through our biking experience, and being on a ship with a couple of hundred people who share this love as well. We love vacations full of action and activity, where we are tired at the end of the day from being out and seeing the world together and with friends. The people we meet on these tours are so wonderful and share similar values and interests. Bill always has a variety of rides to meet all levels of interest and ability so that no one feels left out; and he also has great activities for non-riders. We will definitely go again.

Our latest trip with Santana from Barcelona to Lisbon Our latest trip with Santana from Barcelona to Lisbon was fantastic. The rides were ones we would have never put together on our own and each day was laced with magical moments whether it be breathtaking vistas, historical awe or cultural learning. The ship was world class - including our brilliant chef, and it was (as always) a great time to meet new friends and hang with old. If you have never done a trip with Santana, please know that this is tour created for avid cyclists and not an adventure vacation where you have a chance to go on bike rides. These trips require realistic expectations, a good attitude and a willingness to go with the flow. We have done more than 10 now, and have never regretted a single one.
