Premium Guided Motorcycle Tours
Our Premium Guided Tours have set a standard that few competitors approach. The standard encompasses pre-trip support, the experience and professionalism of our tour leaders, the quality of accommodatons and meals, itineraries and included activities, and overall organization and delivery.
We are proud of the accolades we've received from riders who have traveled with us. View these testimonials by clicking the Testimonials button at the top of the page.
Features of our Premium Guided Tours include:
- Comprehensive pre-trip assistance, including maps, GPS routes and waypoints, and our trip booklet, The Plan Ahead. For many trips, The Plan Ahead has more than 100 pages of valuable information to help you plan and enjoy your trip.
|
- Airport transfers. Upon arrival at the starting location of the trip we'll meet your flight and will accompany you to the hotel. On the departure date, we'll accompany you to the airport for your flight home.
|
- A minimum of two tour leaders - one riding a motorcycle and the other driving a comfortable support vehicle with trailer for transporting luggage and non-riding (or occasional riding) companions. For large groups, we provide additional support staff and when traveling in remote areas (Africa, South America and Canada/Alaska) we take a spare motorcycle in case of mechanical problems.
|
- Daily ride briefings. Each morning a tour leader will conduct a briefing, including a discussion of the day's ride, alternate routes, and options for a lunch stop as well as attractions along the way.
|
- Flexibility. There is no requirement to ride with a tour leader. Riders may either ride with a tour leader or may travel on their own or with friends.
|
- Leisurely Itineraries. Riders arrive at the destination hotel well before dark so there is time to relax before dinner. There is time for a leisurely lunch, comfort stops and sightseeing.
|
- Group activities. Most trips include one or more activities that are appropriate to the character of the trip. Africa trips include game drives in open safari vehicles and, on selected trips, hot air baloon flights and river cruises. In New Zealand, trips include Maori cultural shows, jet boat rides, or a cruise of Milford Sound.
|
- Premium accommodations. Trips include many 4 and 5 star hotels, or upscale boutique hotels and lodges. We avoid large hotels that are frequented by tour buses and large groups.
|
- Premium dining. Most dinners (and all breakfasts and the occasional lunch) are included. Non-alcoholic beverages are included with meals, which are usually á la carte and often include fine dining in upscale restaurants. Ayres Adventures never negotiates "set menu" meals with hotels or restaurants.
|
A deposit of $400/person is required to secure a spot on one of our trips. Most costs are included in the tour price (motorycle rental, accommodations, breakfast and most dinners, selected group activities, and airport transfers).
