THE POST-TRIP BLUES
You’ve just experienced an extraordinary motorcycle adventure, ridden along legendary roads, met fascinating people, and felt that exhilarating freedom unique to great journeys. But now, the road trip is over. Routine takes over again, bringing with it a sense of emptiness. What we call the "post-trip blues" affects many adventurers, a feeling of having left behind something greater than everyday life. How can you extend the spirit of travel, keep that energy alive, and avoid slipping back into a monotonous routine?

Leather Jacket vs. Modern Riding Gear: What’s the Best Choice for a Motorcycle Trip?
The leather jacket is one of the strongest symbols in the motorcycling world. For decades, it has embodied the spirit of freedom, adventure, and rebellion on the road. However, when it comes to setting off on a motorcycle tour, or even perfecting your riding skills at a motorcycle training course, this icon faces real limitations: weight, breathability, adaptability to weather conditions... In response to these challenges, a new generation of jackets designed for long distances and varied conditions has emerged. Among them, La Baroudeuse, developed with and for motorcycle travelers, stands out as a modern alternative.

Embracing the Unknown with Vintage Rides

Adventure is about broadening your horizons by delving into the unknown. This is the “raison d'être” of Vintage Rides, a premium agency for distinctive motorcycle adventures, created to encourage as many people as possible to embark on an adventure.

Thirsty for adventure? Vintage Rides is ready to provide you with an extraordinary motorcycle tour experience on any of the 4 continents where we operate.

Explore wild trails of the world on a Vintage Rides motorcycle tour

Our concept is simple: Embark on a motorcycle trip astride a Royal Enfield to discover new exotic places, far from the main tourist routes. Travelling off the beaten path will undoubtedly provide new experiences and unforgettable panoramas. One thing is certain: you’ll return home with plenty of long-lasting memories! Whether you want to travel alone on your motorcycle road trip or with a group, you’ll be sure to meet other bikers on one of our fixed departures. Travelling with a group of up to 12 pilots, you’ll share unique moments with other like-minded motorcycle travel enthusiasts who may be fellow compatriots or from further afield. What could be better than being surrounded by other motorcyclists who love the freedom and adventure of a motorbike tour? You’ll also get to experience the sheer pleasure of riding, meet locals and explore your surroundings, a sure-fire bet that you’ll enjoy every moment intensely. After this authentic motorcycle road trip, you’ll be planning when you’ll next be able to set off behind the handlebars of Royal Enfield.

From Europe to Asia, South America to Africa, we offer classic tours all around the world. Join us on an unparalleled motorcycle trip to discover unspoilt splendor of nature: the Mongolian Steppes, the Himalayan Peaks, the Golden Triangle and many more! Our goal: to make your motorcycle travel dreams a reality! As true travel buffs, our teams are constantly devising new routes so that you can discover the hidden beauty in these regions. With more than 40 different motorcycle tour itineraries to choose from, you can travel across the continents, living a completely unique experience every time. From the get-go, you’ll be astounded by the stunning landscapes that pass before your eyes. Not only will you fulfill your passion for riding, you’ll meet local people and immerse yourself in their culture, such intense experiences that will give you the motorcycle travel bug.

Whether you are an adventurer at heart, always seeking new challenges, or prefer to travel at a slower pace, Vintage Rides has you covered. With such a vast range of destinations and itineraries, you are sure to find a motorbike tour that is perfect for your needs. If you are looking for thrills, our “Adventure Tour” style of motorcycle travel is adrenaline fuelled and ideal for you! If you are planning to take things slower, we recommend the “Luxury Tour” for a relaxed motorcycle road trip getaway with plenty of R&R and special moments. And if you’d prefer to mix it up, you can get the best of both worlds with a “Motorcycle Ramble” style of motorbike tour. No matter which you choose, you can expect a classic motorcycle road trip that combines the pleasure of riding and discovering local culture, always in a breathtaking setting.

Thanks to your Royal Enfield, your motorcycle trip will easily transport you to the more isolated villages where you will have authentic encounters with friendly locals. As a popular means of transport, your motorcycle enables you to create connections and start conversations. In the company of other riders, you bond over the camaraderie of the road. You will live a true human adventure!

Choosing a motorcycle tour with Vintage Rides means stimulating all your senses on a truly incredible journey. Mount up on your Royal Enfield and lose yourself to the purring of the engine. So many beautiful landscapes await! Let yourself be seduced by those new and exciting feelings. Manufactured since 1901, this motorcycle brand is one of the oldest in the world. Emblematic in India, the Royal Enfield is timeless in its beauty and performance. Not only is it affordable for riders of all levels, it is also the perfect bike for getting off the beaten tracks. Authentic and hearty, the Royal Enfield Bullet 500 is ideal for motorcycle travel. At a leisurely cruising speed, you can enjoy every inch of scenery that passes before you on your motorcycle trip. The Himalayan, built for off-road adventure, will no doubt appeal too. Adaptable to all types of terrain, this versatile bike will give you a thrilling motorcycle road trip experience. Difficult to make a choice, isn’t it? Don’t worry, Vintage Rides will give you the model best suited to your motorcycle trip.

Dreaming of an India motorcycle tour? Has a Marocco motorcyle tour been calling your name? Or perhaps another continent that has captured your imagination? Our motorcycle tour options have been created to suit your personal taste. We offer many kinds of itineraries, depending on your level of experience and holiday goals. Whether you’re looking for a rugged off-road motorbike tour or more relaxing luxury experience, we’ve got you covered! You can also choose to travel alone or with a group of people, whichever best suits you! We offer three different motorcycle tour options to meet the needs and wants of every rider. The first one, called “Fixed Departure”, lets you be part of a group of 12 people maximum. This will be the opportunity to share a motorcycle trip off the beaten tracks with passionate bikers. If you already have a group of rider friends with whom you want to plan an adventure, that’s possible too! With the “Tailor-Made” formula, you can arrange a motorcycle road trip in line with your expectations with a departure date that will suit everyone. If you prefer, you can fully customise your trip with the “A la carte” solution.

Whether you’re exploring the wilds on an Himalaya motorbike tour or unearthing hidden gems a little closer to home on a Europe motorcycle tour, our riders’ comfort and safety is paramount for Vintage Rides. Our team of passionate motorcycle tour professionals will accompany you every step of the way, from the initial designing of your motorcycle trip to the tour itself. Worried you may have a query or an unexpected problem? Fear not! You’ll be supported by experienced staff both on the tour and at Vintage Rides offices around the world. Throughout your motorbike tour, our teams are on hand to look after you. Our goal? We want to make sure you feel safe and comfortable at all times. That’s why an English motorcycle tour guide or an English speaker will always be available. We also have mechanics on staff so if you experience a breakdown, help is never far away. A support vehicle also transports your group’s luggage and carries tools as well as spare mechanical parts. It’s pretty simple: you focus on enjoying your motorcycle road trip and we take care of the rest!

We have shared our passion for pure motorcycling adventure with you for nearly two decades. From our very first India motorcycle tour to today, offering dozens of unique itineraries on four continents, our goal has remained the same: we want you to discover the roads of the world differently.
