Italy is a winding paradise for motorcyclists, offering breathtaking landscapes and exciting adventures. Discover the fascinating coastal roads and majestic mountain passes while riding through the wilderness of Sardinia or the impressive Western Alps. Evercoss® motorcycle tours offer unforgettable experiences on the bike. From exploring the Gennargentu massif to the thrilling guided off-road tour through Sardinia: experiences, culture, and culinary highlights await you. Plan your next motorcycle adventure in Italy now!
Our Italy motorcycle tours are both built around Sardinia, but they sit at different skill levels. The guided tour on a rental motorcycle stays mostly on tarmac and easy tracks along the coast and through the Supramonte hills, so solid road riding experience is all you need; no off-road background required. The Offroad Enduro tour pushes further into the Gennargentu massif on gravel, loose rock and sandy stretches, so you should already be confident standing on the pegs and braking on a loose surface before you sign up.
You are welcome to bring your own motorcycle on either tour. We can ship it by ferry between Genoa and Olbia for an extra 200 euros including insurance, or you ride the ferry over yourself. Prefer to travel light? The guided tour also comes with a rental motorcycle waiting for you at the port, so you fly in and start riding without shipping a bike at all.
Every riding day starts with a briefing on the stage ahead. On the guided rental-bike tour, our tour guide rides along in the group once eight or more riders have booked; on the Enduro route, the guide follows in a support vehicle and stays in radio contact once the terrain gets technical. Evenings bring a small hotel, sometimes with a pool, or a night under canvas on the Enduro tour, followed by a traditional Sardinian dinner and a free day to swim before the next stage.
The rental-bike tour needs confident, everyday road riding skills on winding coastal tarmac, no off-road background required. The Offroad Enduro tour is for experienced riders only: you must be comfortable standing on the pegs, braking on loose gravel and handling sandy stretches in the Gennargentu massif.
Yes, on both tours. Bring your own machine and we ship it by ferry between Genoa and Olbia for an extra 200 euros including insurance, or ride the ferry over yourself. The rental-bike tour also offers a motorcycle waiting for you at the port.
Distances vary by tour: the rental-bike route mixes coastal tarmac with easy tracks at a comfortable daily pace, while the Enduro tour is paced by the technical terrain in the Gennargentu massif rather than raw kilometres covered.
Each day opens with a stage briefing. On the rental-bike tour our guide rides in the group once eight or more riders have booked; on the Enduro tour the guide follows in a support vehicle with radio contact. Evenings bring a hotel or a night under canvas, plus dinner and rest days to swim.
Sardinia can be ridden from April through October. Riders heading into the Gennargentu massif for the off-road stages should aim for May to October, when the gravel tracks are driest. Cooler, wetter months bring quieter coast roads but rougher trails inland.
