One thing is certain; the pace will not be too fast. Although the days are long and busy, we ride safely. These are rides, not races. We are also aware that not all participants have the same experience and ride at the same speed. We know how to adapt to the situation and we will make sure that everyone rides at a pace that suits them.
For each day of motorcycle travel, riding times are indicated in hours, within the circuits’ section. Normally, we ride between 4 and 6 hours per day. To this time expect to add coffee breaks, meals and site visits.
To find out what is and isn’t included, see the calendar section.
After breakfast, there is a short briefing of the day. Departure is usually between 8:00 and 9:00 am. Usually we stop (coffee breaks) every 60-90 minutes. We have lunch at a place specifically chosen by your guide. You will be back at your accommodation between 5:00 and 7:00 pm. The evening meal is up to you. If you like to cook, you can do so on site. If you prefer, your guide can make a reservation at a local restaurant and take you there. There is also the option of having a meal prepared and delivered to you at home. Arrangements must be made in advance.

For any motorcycle rental (scooter excluded) of 5 days or more or tours of 3 days or more, we do offer the transfer from Lisbon airport . A member of our team will be waiting for you at the airport to take you to our office. For any other situation, please contact us to know the possibilities.
The scooter models we offer can go anywhere. This is an option for people who do not have a motorcycle license. However, be aware that these scooters do not offer the performance of larger motorcycles. This is a solution that allows you to spend the day with your friends and visit the same places.
In rental mode, scooters are a great way to get around and visit many places. They are comfortable, agile and versatile.
