Adventurers Wanted!
“Dream Your Ride” is all about helping people take the
motorcycle adventure of their dreams.
This year my friend Paul Opp from Peru VolunTours will help me take one
of my dream adventures of riding dual sport motorcycles for 10 days in the
Peruvian Andes. Paul is looking
for a few more riders to join us on this fantastic ride.
I first met Paul in high school where he was a “rookie”
teacher and while he may not remember, he played a big role in a contest that
won me a date with a girl I eventually married me. Anyway, Paul can best describe who he is and what Peru
VolunTours is all about.
"My
name is Paul Opp, 13 years ago I made my first journey to Peru and fell
in love with the culture, the people and the country. Fours years later
I moved here, adopted two Peruvian daughters and started a nonprofit
called People of Peru Project.
Since then we have opened a crisis center for abused girls, a free
medical and dental clinic and an educational support program for poor
children
in the Iquitos area. We also provide humanitarian services for people
all over the country from high in the Andes above Cusco to the Amazon
River basin. I have worked with hundreds of groups planning trips to
this amazing country, from luxury vacations to working in the slums of
Belen. If you really want to meet and
get to know the people and culture then Peru VolunTours
is the place for you. Each trip is customized for you. If you want the
standard cookie cutter tour, I would suggest you use one of the rubber
stamp tour operators. If you want a life changing experience that will
impact an impoverished family......join us.


I am happy to provide all the references you would like and I guarantee that you will have an experience you will never forget. "
The “life changing experience that will impact an impoverished family” refers to the financial impact that a tour will have on Paul’s humanitarian programs in Iquitos as the proceeds from the tours go directly these programs.
Information on the ride can be found at Peru VolunTours Andes Motorcycle Tour and if you would
