Our services

We don’t just organisemotorcycle tours.We make dreams come true.

Our mission

You ride.
We take care of the rest.

“Motoexplora doesn’t make trips, it makes dreams come true!”

Our motto

We are an authorised tour operator specialising in motorcycle tours: since 2005 we have been guiding riders along the most beautiful roads in the world, across Europe, Africa and Asia. But a journey is not just kilometres: it is the breathtaking landscapes, the flavours you never forget and the people you meet along the way that make it unforgettable.

Our mission is to take care of every detail, before, during and after the trip, so that you can live only the best part: the road, the freedom and the emotions you will carry with you for the rest of your life.

Before the trip

The perfect trip begins long before departure.

Behind every Motoexplora tour there is a team that works for months: planning the routes, booking ferries and hotels, checking every stage and every stop. When you get on your bike, everything is already in place.

  • Advice on choosing the right trip

    We help you find the trip that suits you, based on your bike, your experience and the roads you love. Don’t hesitate to get in touch: let’s have a chat and work out together everything you need.

  • Ferries and hotels: we take care of it

    We book ferries with reserved cabins, hotels and every service on the trip. You don’t have to worry about a thing.

  • Places tested for years

    We know the places we go extremely well: we chose and tried the hotels and restaurants ourselves, over more than a thousand trips in twenty years.

  • Insurance included

    Medical and luggage insurance is already included in the price. Trip cancellation insurance is available on request.

New to motorcycle touring?

No problem: every rider started with a first trip. Call us and we will choose together the route that suits you, with all the support you need. Doubts, questions, curiosity: no question is too small.

During the trip

You ride. We take care of everything else.

The motorcycle guide

A guide who knows the soul of the road

At the head of the group there is always our motorcycle guide, an experienced tour leader riding with you from the first to the last bend. They know the most beautiful roads, the ones you won’t find on maps, and the traditions of the places you ride through: the trattoria where food tastes like it used to, the view that suddenly opens up after a hairpin, the story hidden behind a small village. This is how the trip goes beyond the usual tourist spots and becomes a collection of unforgettable moments.

Small groups

You leave as strangers, you come back as friends

We travel in small, close-knit groups of 10–12 bikes: enough to make friends, few enough never to get lost. A few days of shared road, stops and laughter over dinner are all it takes for a stranger to become a travel companion. In twenty years we have seen countless friendships born on the road, and many still last today, long after the last kilometre.

The support van

By your side for whatever you need

The support van follows the group along the whole route and carries the luggage, so you ride light. It provides mechanical assistance for minor issues, carrying essential spare parts and an emergency kit. And there is Wi‑Fi, handy when crossing different countries, from Morocco to the Balkans, where finding a connection is not always easy and often costs extra. Plus a fridge always stocked with refreshing drinks for more comfortable stops.

  • 4-star hotels and above

    High-quality hotels, chosen and checked by us: often with a pool or spa, sometimes a typical, characteristic local place. Always with reserved and guarded parking for your bike.

  • Breakfasts and dinners included

    The day starts with a good breakfast and ends with a dinner of local flavours.

  • Excursions and special visits

    Guided visits, excursions and special dinners change from trip to trip, depending on the place. Contact us to find out which are included in your trip.

  • Solo or as a couple

    Whether you travel solo, as a couple or with a pillion, you will feel at home in the group straight away. A single room is available on request.

  • 24/7 assistance

    A contact person always available, day and night, for the whole trip. Whatever you need, however small, there is always someone ready to take care of it: you just enjoy the road.

  • Motoexplora gear

    High-quality T-shirts and jackets our travellers love and wear with pride, even back home.

And then, always a surprise

Every Motoexplora trip has a special moment you won’t find in the programme: a surprise planned just for you. What is it? We won’t tell you, it would spoil the fun!

After the trip

We say goodbye.
But it’s not farewell.

At the end of every trip we say goodbye, but we are sure we will see each other again soon: for the wonderful experience you have lived and for the friends you found along the road.

Our promise: at the end of the trip

  • you will go home with memories that last a lifetime;
  • you will have new friends to share the next road with;
  • you will have seen places through the eyes of people who truly know them;
  • and you will already want to set off again.
