Our specialty is providing "Own Bike" guided motorcycle tours in Ireland, we aim to show you the real Ireland by taking you through some wonderful countryside using less well used roads which provide a superb motorcycling experience and usually have much lighter traffic, there will always be a tractor or two wherever you go though. The emphasis of our tours is MOTORCYCLING.
We are located in County Down, Northern Ireland, but most of our tours start and finish in the Dublin area to facilitate people crossing from Great Britain by ferry. We can also accommodate anyone wishing to start from Northern Ireland.
Our tours normally include Bed & Breakfast in sensibly priced, biker friendly, quality accommodation in pleasant locations, full daily travel itinerary and the services of an experienced motorcyclist/guide. Our tour leaders are advanced riders (RoSPA and/or IAM). Your evenings are free to explore but rest assured that all the places we stay will be close to restaurants and pubs - usually on site in most cases.
We have specialist knowledge of Northern Ireland, somewhere many travellers have avoided in the past. There are many places to see with much of historic interest, both from the recent past, and further back in time. New for 2008 is a 5 day tour based entirely in Northern Ireland, travelling through many areas which have featured in the news in recent years.
We welcome touring novices, couples and single riders, daily mileages are generally not excessive and we can cater for most riding styles with our "Drop off" and "Back marker" system. This allows faster riders to make good progress whilst those who wish to enjoy the scenery at a more leisurely pace can do so, the group meeting up at the next stop.
Group size is typically 12 - 15 riders and we aim for about 5 hours riding time each day, which with time for various stops usually means about 8 hours on the road.
We plan interesting routes on great biking roads, you don't need to worry about maps or getting lost as our guide will lead the way. We'll stop for refreshments at various places and there are always opportunities for photos. Our guides are touring veterans with a wealth of experience gained over many years of travel.
