Europe for motorcyclists is much more than just Italy, southern France, and Andalusia: the southeast of the continent is a real paradise for traveling on two wheels and wants to be discovered on small, very low-traffic roads.
This tour starts in unique Vienna, one of Europe's top city destinations, but along our route, there are many unknown gems such as Košice, Timișoara, and Pécs to discover - as well as fantastic roads in the eastern foothills of the Alps, around the High Tatras and in the Carpathians.
On this motorcycle tour, we visit up to eight countries with seven different languages and five different currencies, so variety is guaranteed. The Transfogarasch High Road and the lesser-known but no less beautiful Transalpina alone are worth the trip. There is also plenty of time for sightseeing and exploring the regional culture and cuisine, and it is worth trying the up-and-coming wines and countless types of beer from these countries.
Make new friends, enjoy the beautiful landscapes, and immerse yourself in centuries of history. See where Dracula lived, where Schwarzenegger grew up, and where Hungary's famous sweet wine comes from.
Leave the beaten track behind and experience a part of Europe that has been inaccessible and neglected for decades - and rediscover it for yourself!
