France motorcycle tours

Born from a passion for adventure travel and Royal Enfield motorcycles, Vintage Rides organizes France motorcycle tours across Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America. Our mission? To help you travel by motorcycle safely, combining the pleasure of new encounters and the discovery of new horizons.

No need to go to the ends of the earth to feel the thrill of adventure! Europe motorcycle tours show that you don’t have to travel far to enjoy an unforgettable journey. France is full of treasures just waiting to be explored on a motorcycle. With the same passion that has driven us for years to design motorcycle trips around the world, we now offer you France motorcycle tours.

Departing from Lyon, join our off-road motorcycle training courses and France motorcycle tours freely. Specialists in motorcycle road trip organization since 2006, we have decided to help you (re)discover France by motorcycle. So, are you ready to follow us?

France, which we think we know so well, is full of wonders and has no shortage of landscapes, atmospheres, and traditions. Let yourself be surprised by its roads and paths, picturesque villages, and way of life during a France motorcycle tour. There’s no question of settling for the most well-known spots. We’ll take you down the roads of a more intimate France to “experience” a region in all its authenticity on your Royal Enfield.

Join our Rhône Alpes motorcycle tour and embark on a true off-road adventure. Set out to conquer secret roads and rocky mountain trails. The Alps offer an ideal playground for motorcycle enthusiasts.

Do you have a burning desire to hit the trails on your motorcycle and ride the tracks of Europe and the world? To set off on your adventure with complete peace of mind, book an off-road motorcycle course in France at the Vintage Rides Academy, just a few kilometers from Lyon.

On our France motorcycle tours, you’ll experience a real immersion in the heart of the regions we offer, surrounded by nature. Whether you’ve already traveled with us or simply want to join a trip with friends, come along at the right time of year for a motorcycle tour in France.

France offers a wide variety of landscapes that are ideal for motorcyclists: winding roads in the Alps, Mediterranean cliffs, green valleys in the Massif Central, peaceful countryside in the southwest, or a motorcycle tour in Île-de-France. To fully enjoy these itineraries, the best time to visit is from April to October.

Spring (April-June) is perfect for a motorcycle trip in France, avoiding the summer crowds, with mild temperatures and quieter roads. The blossoming landscapes make the journeys particularly enjoyable. Summer (July-August) guarantees warm, sunny weather throughout the country, but tourist roads can be very busy, especially near the coast. Fall (September-October) is an excellent time to visit: temperatures remain mild and the golden light enhances the landscapes. In contrast, in winter, due to the cold, ice, or snow, motorcycles are stored in garages and people take the opportunity to travel to sunnier destinations around the world.

France boasts great geographical diversity. Bordered by the North Sea, the English Channel, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Mediterranean Sea, France offers a wealth of landscapes and climates. Join us for a three-day motorcycle road trip in France. Take the Grandes Alpes route. From Lake Geneva to the French Riviera, you will cross 16 mountain passes by motorcycle and four large natural parks: Vanoise, Écrins, Queyras, and Mercantour.

This geographical diversity translates into a cultural, gastronomic and natural richness that is unique in Europe, to be discovered during a France motorcycle tour. Among the main mountain ranges, the Alps occupy a central place in our trips. The French Alps attract motorcyclists on sunny days who discover the joys of an off-road motorcycle trip in France. The Alps combine spectacular beauty and local traditions.

From prehistory to the Renaissance, France’s history has been rich and eventful. This heritage is still deeply present across the country, and during your France motorcycle tours, you’ll have the chance to explore remarkable remains of this endless legacy.

The French Revolution of 1789 marked the beginning of the contemporary era and the rise of several republics. Since the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen in 1789, France has often been called “the land of human rights” and is also known for its Republican motto: “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.”

The 20th century was shaped by two world wars. As a founding member of the European Union after World War II, France has enjoyed peaceful relations with its neighboring countries.

Thanks to its exceptional cultural heritage and diverse natural landscapes, France remains the most visited country in the world. Among its most iconic landmarks are Paris and the Eiffel Tower, the Loire Valley châteaux, Mont Saint-Michel, the Aiguille du Midi, and the wine routes of Burgundy and Bordeaux.

The legendary French charm and art de vivre are renowned worldwide, offering an unmatched backdrop for your motorcycle journey through France.
