Motorcycle Tours

 

In this section we have put together our favourite rides in Italy and neighbouring countries, such as France, Switzerland, Austria, Tunisia.
The rides are the fruit of our growing specialisation and passion for riding our homeland in all directions and at all times, combined with the continuous feedback we get from you.

Our aim is to produce "care free" fun motorcycle holidays, where you enjoy a weeks riding without exhausting yourself, meet new and interesting people from all over the world, and get involved with Italian life not as a tourist, but as a motorcycle traveller.

 

Our formula to put something like this into life is a combination of the following elements:

a small group of participants (min 10 - max 14 people - not bikes)
quality miles (scenery and road type)
best time of the year to ride itineraries
fresh touring bikes (BMW & Ducati)
quality "in town" family run hotels
quality local cuisine and wines
riding guide at all times
support vehicle for luggage and assistance
local GSM phone per bike to keep in touch with least hassle
