Motorcycle tour around Andalucia, rev up your motor

Whoever said holidays were only for summertime?

You too can join our “bikers” (to coin a phrase) because taking a break is a brave thing to do.

Let’s on a Tour around Andalucia, the Land of Art in order to re-charge and then go back to daily life with more energy and a new perspective on things. Let nothing stop you!

When we start a new route, we live it with enthusiasm, but the intensity of day to day can overwhelm us. Although things might not always go perfectly according to plan, those of us with an adventurous spirit won’t go backwards, even to gain momentum.

Fans of riding really know that when you’re on a bike, you see everything better. That’s why we’ve created this authentic and passionate tour around Andalucia during autumn, so that you can balance out the year and finish it with more energy.

Live our tour around Andalucia, Land of Art

Get on a BMW to ride the roads that will take us through the most famous towns of this wonderful region. This trip has everything you love: great roads, amazing landscapes, superb gastronomy and a fantastic environment for experiencing it all in good company.

Andalucia is the Spanish region with the best climate and historic patrimony, one of the reasons it’s the preferred destination of the tourists that come to visit. It also stands out for its kilometres of coastline and coastal cities and towns that are well known internationally.

ARCHITECTURE AND PATRIMONY

The architecture is one of the most important attractions. The Moorish details, the typical villas and the white-washed houses that dot villages and mountainsides are very popular with visitors. It’s all the result of cultural mixture that lasted centuries.

TAPAS AND GASTRONOMY

The “art of andalucian tapas”. Small portions of quality cuisine accompanied by good wine or cold beer. In all of Andalucia you’ll enjoy great tapas, local quality products and rather tasty. As well as great fresh produce straight from the garden that make two of the most typical dishes: gazpacho and salmorejo. Exquisite and easy to eat, that go along with the traditional dishes from each region.

ART AND FLAMENCO

Flamenco is all around Andalucia’s towns and streets. The dancers show off their polka dot dresses to sing and dance in the taverns to the rhythm of the Spanish guitar, while the spectator becomes thrilled with so much art and passion.

BEACHES AND NATURE

Another attraction of Andalucia are the beaches, all along the Mediterranean as well as the Atlantic Ocean. The coast has exceptional paradise-like landscapes. From touristy spots full of life to pristine fine-sand beaches, there are amazing sights that you’ll never forget.

PEOPLE AND CHARACTER

The warmth and friendliness of the residents in the south has become another tourist attraction making visitors feel right at home. A sense of joy permeates the Andalucian streets and this energy is contagious. There is a reason why the south of Europe is the favourite destination of foreigners.

Stages of the tour, 9 days

Ride across Andalucia on a BMW motorcycle in 9 stages, leaving and returning to Malaga.

Day 1 – Reception in Malaga

We’ll pick you up at the airport. There will be a welcome meeting for everyone to get to know each other and to comment on the Tour. The city of Malaga is worth seeing and touring around on the first day. After dinner, you’ll have a good rest in order to start the big adventure that awaits us.
