About us

Our employees and associates have never met each other and probably never will. Most of us live in Europe, but there are also Kyrgyz, Argentineans, Chileans, Indians, Mongols, and Americans. The members of Advfactory family speak different languages and come from different cultures. They are doctors, scuba divers, blacksmiths, journalists, musicians and shooting instructors. We all, however, have one thing in common – we love to travel. This project would not have been possible without true passion. Advfactory.com is more than just a business – it’s our way of life.

PHILOSOPHY

The name Advfactory is a combination of two words: adventure and factory. It came naturally, as we have always been passionate about creating experiences. We believe adventure starts the moment you hit off-road and we always try to go off the beaten track. We have been traveling for so many years, we have become wanderers – always curious, always exploring.

This attitude drove us to visit six out of seven continents. It also allowed Advfactory to offer trips to the most stunning places in the world; Pangong Tso, Bartangu Valley, Song Kul, Salar de Uyuni. Even the names are a promise of something unusual and unforgettable. In our quest to organise trips as best as we can, we never take you to places we had not visited and checked before. The destinations are the result of our careful choices. We reject what is less attractive to show you what we consider to be the BEST …

The expeditions we offer are unique and require detailed preparation, years of experience and knowledge of the terrain – it’s rather unlikely you’d reach these places on your own. When traveling with us, you will not be an ordinary tourist bypassed by a route tour bus somewhere on the road. Our goal is to let you encounter the authentic culture and history of the country we visit. You will sleep in yurts, try real Argentinian steaks, drink Himalayan masala tea and taste kumis. To ensure the real experience all our trips are accompanied by local associates.

We also want to make sure an emergency such as vehicle failure or an injury does not spoil the trip for rest of the participants. Therefore, a support car is always there to guarantee maximum comfort and safety.

As most of our routes lead through high mountains: Himalayas, Andes, Pamir, Tien Shan, Hindukush, every trip is planned in the tiniest detail, so as to provide the best possible service in those demanding conditions. The weather is always a very unpredictable yet crucial factor when travelling, so we are prepared for different scenarios and know alternative routes.

Years of experience have taught us not to fight nature but to adapt to it. Just accept what the road gives you. We know that is how the most unforgetable adventures happen.

OUR TEAM

Krzysztof Samborski

The Boss

Journalist, motorcyclist, traveller. In 1993, he visited Central Asia for the first time, fell head over heels in love with it, and hasn’t left ever since. He worked for newspapers, radio, internet portals and even for television, but always felt out of place. When he organised his first motorcycle trip in 2006 he immediately knew that was it. And although he feels better in a yurt than in an air-conditioned room, he insists, that he is a stay-at-home guy at heart.

Krzysztof Fijak

Capo di tutti clienti

Mechanical Engineer, he works for General Motors, in Turin. Until he was 35, he had never ridden a motorbike, then, for love (Lisa) he climbed up on the 2 wheels and now he is not able to get down…even if he still has a lot to learn. He travelled by motorbike to Europe, Central Asia, USA and Morocco. A living GPS: instead of the most sophisticated navigators, it prefers to use road maps. He has been living in Italy for more than 20 years and he speaks fluently Italian, English and Polish. Krzysztof is our contact for Italian customers.

Paweł Rubach

The Impossible Cases Ninja

Lecturer at the Warsaw School of Economics. Fluent in several languages (although claims Java is his mother tongue). A frequent visitor to Peru. An enthusiast of 4 × 4 expeditions, with extensive field experience. Has been through some hard times on two wheels as well. Recently in Iceland. An active scout instructor.

Przemek Osuchowski

Globetrotter

The first laureate of the Polish Pulitzer Prize, who used to travel the world as a reporter. Then, for a decade, he produced television programs, worked on six continents. Now, he wanders with his camera, always trying to reach places you’ll never find in any travel agency offer. An occasional writer, mostly when he needs an outlet for his thoughts and experiences. Went backpacking in over 80 countries, and spent at least four weeks in each one. He just believes that shorter trips (not to be confused with holidays) don’t make any sense at all. Altogether, he spent 12 years on the road, almost three of which were in the former Soviet Union. No wonder then that Przemek specialises in extreme car trips. In 2015, he led the first edition of the Venice – Beijing Rally, where enthusiasts of exceptional journeys followed the route of Marco Polo. He rarely rides a motorcycle because it’s “kinda hard to smoke wearing a helmet”. Admits to loving three things in life – women, bridge and fruit distillates. Usually in this order. On those rare occasions when he doesn’t travel you can meet him in Kraków or Toronto.

„A gdy już tam w tych zacnych a obyczajnych krajoch będziesz, nie rośćże jako krzywa sosna w boru, która nic więcej nie umie, jedno, iż się zieleni, a przedsię kole a szyszki śmierdzące rodzi, które się ni nacz inszego nie przygodzą, jedno najeżywszy się, na ziemi darmo leżą; ale rość jako drzewko oliwne, którego i…

Wyjazd do Bhutanu to było dla mnie ogromne przeżycie. To naprawdę cudowne miejsce wciśnięte między Indie i Chiny, ale diametralnie od nich różne. Oszałamiająca przyroda, piękne zabytki i przemili, przyjaźni ludzie. Jeżeli zwiedza się Bhutan tak jak my na motocyklach to wówczas możliwość dogłębnego poznania tego kraju jest jeszcze większa. Wszyscy, którzy uprawiają turystykę motocyklową…

V roku 2013 sme absolvovali expedíciu so šiestimi štvorkolkami v krajinách centrálnej Ázie, v Kyrgyzstane a Tajikistane. Transport štvorkoliek nám realizoval Krystof Samborski z firmy ADVfactory.com. Obojstranný transport prebehol bez problémov a týmto sa ešte raz chcem poďakovať realizačnému týmu ADVfactory. Určite sme nevyužili služby tejto firmy posledný krát!

Chi viaggia in moto ha sempre un mezzo incubo rappresentato dalle spedizioni della moto, agenzie di spedizione, operazioni doganali, preparazione casse, fumigazioni, calcolo il più esatto possibile per la data di arrivo, noleggi container ecc.ecc. Quest’anno grazie a un paio di simpatici motociclisti che hanno fatto da organizzatori (Lupo ed Ermanno) mi sono aggregato ad…
