Why choose Ride Europe Tours for your next adventure?
-
Our guides are first aid trained ex-servicemen and mechanics with a passion for knowing what they do and doing it well. We have a desire for perfection, our informal touring style makes our tours as organised as possible behind the scenes and as fun as it gets on the scene!
-
Whether it's a 4* all inclusive hotel in the Canaries or a mountain lodge in the Swiss Alps with its own heated pool, you can be sure you will be well rested and ready to take on the next days challenge.
Our team spare no expense on the amazing accommodation ...we have to stay there too you know!
We also have to keep our bikes at the same place too. That is why we painstakingly handpick our accommodation to make sure they feature either a garage/locked car park or at least a nice tuck away out of sight. We always take the necessary precautions to ensure that our guests bikes are safe over night but that being said, it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure your bike is locked, alarmed and even possibly covered if you wish.

We are more than just a tour provider here at Ride Europe, we are cultivators of lifelong friendships and bonds.
The Tour that you choose and the people you meet along the way, are going to hold a special place close to you for years to come.
Our informal and creative approach to our tours make it easy for our groups to become great friends.
-
Our Tours are designed so that everybody can feel comfortable, no one is expected to break the speed limit or race to the destination.
At the beginning of each day, all of our guests will be given the destination for that night. Our guides will set a steady riding pace and we encourage all our guests to ride their own ride, but not at the expense of the safety of themselves or the group.
(These are Tours not track days)

We operate a ‘2nd man drop off’ system. If you’re a seasoned rider, then you’ll know this system well. We use it as it keeps the group moving and there’s no waiting around for riders to catch the group up.
When riding in larger groups on main roads we like to have everyone in a more staggered formation so you’re not flicking stones directly at the person behind you bike or their visor.
On our riding days, we can either split the group down into a faster and slower group or we can all go out together.
We will still operate the same ‘2nd man drop off system’ however, on the longer stretches of roads we will allow for riders to ‘stretch their legs’ if they so wish to. No-one overtakes the lead rider unless signaled to.
Everyone will be added to a Whats-app group so if for and reason you get split up from the group you can let us know you are safe. You will all have the route given to you each day and we will give you all GPX files for the riding days if you have a GPX supporting device.
You do not need to stay in the group to enjoy your riding holiday, if you prefer to go off on your own and meet up at the accommodation each night, that is absolutely fine by us…. its your holiday after all.

About the founders
We have known each other since our school days. As is the norm with many friendships, we both ended up leading very different lives after high school, which ultimately led to a significant lapse in our contact. I moved away to pursue my career and joined the army, and in a parallel turn of events, so did Josh. Josh, who is on the left in the photo, joined right after high school, while I came in from college. Despite our diverging paths, we both share a profound passion for motorbikes, a thirst for adventure, and an overall love for adrenaline-fueled experiences.
Fast forward a few years to when I moved back into the area, and we reconnected. At that time, Josh was successfully running his own groundworks firm, while I had taken on a role teaching security. Soon after our reunion, I found myself working for Josh, which helped to strengthen our bond even further. The photo on the left captures a memorable moment from 2022 when I convinced Josh to try out my sport of paramotoring, despite his well-known fear of heights. Remarkably, this week of him experimenting with my sport was a pivotal moment that laid the groundwork for Ride Europe Tours.
For a long time, I had the burning desire to share the joys of motorcycle touring with others. One day, while we were sitting in my van, I pitched my idea to Josh, and he was immediately enthusiastic about it. We essentially created a mini business plan on the spot. Since that day, we've been bouncing ideas off each other, collaborating to form what you see now. I have been riding abroad for many years, and so has Josh, which enriched our experiences. I have always had a deep love for traveling, but touring on a motorbike stands out as one of the best adventures I have ever undertaken. It embodies sheer freedom, just you, your friends, and the open road stretching before you. The roads abroad are something else entirely—full of twists and turns, as though they were designed by a racing driver. To top it all off, the breathtaking scenery is unparalleled, and the added bonus is that it's usually much warmer.
For both me and Josh, Ride Europe Tours is a way for us to share our profound passion for motorcycle touring with you. Our aim is to make each and every tour an unforgettable experience filled with excitement and camaraderie.
