Asphalt and Curves

After we disembark, we will pick up the participants who flew in from the hotel. Our first destination is the world-famous Costa Smeralda - a true highlight in the northeast of Sardinia. Here we can expect breathtaking views of the crystal-clear water and elegant yachts lining the coast. While we are in Palau, we must not miss Bear Rock - an impressive rock formation shaped by wind and weather in the form of a bear, which represents a true natural wonder. Afterwards, we will find a cozy bar to start the day with a relaxed breakfast. Today, we first drive along winding roads, enjoying the first portion of off-road feeling, but the rest of the way will take us on the highway so that we arrive at our hotel on time. The first day ends in a relaxed manner: over a shared dinner, we get to know each other better, exchange our first impressions, and get in the mood for the upcoming week full of exciting motorcycle adventures.

Curves as far as the eye can see

After a hearty breakfast, we hop on our motorcycles and get ready for a fantastic tour. Today, we head north again, where the coast accompanies us along winding roads. We roughly drive along the coast until just before Posada, before we make a detour south, where even more curves await us. Today is not about speed, but about pure riding pleasure - we take our time, enjoy the curve paradise of Sardinia, and the impressive views of the coastal landscape. Our first stop takes us to the legendary bandit town of Orgosolo, where we take a look at the fascinating murals. Here, we can have a coffee or two, maybe a small snack, and we allow ourselves to be enchanted by the history and culture of the village - we have plenty of time to enjoy everything at a leisurely pace. In the afternoon, we leisurely ride back to the hotel. Those who still have energy can take a dip in the refreshing sea or reward themselves at the bar with a cool Ichnusa - the Sardinian beer. In the evening, there’s a delicious dinner where we review the day’s experiences and look forward to the next exciting day.

Detour to the West Coast

Today we drive through the charming Jerzu, the idyllic Ussassai, and the historic Seui. It's steep uphill, winding downhill, and back up again - the winding roads of Sardinia are just waiting to be conquered by us. Each curve reveals new, spectacular views! Once we reach the wild west coast, we treat ourselves to a well-deserved break and enjoy the breathtaking view of the crystal-clear sea. After that, we make a stop at the Torre dei Corsari, (the Pirate Tower), an impressive landmark that marks the beginning of the legendary Costa Verde - a place famous for its unspoiled beauty and secret beaches. After this fascinating excursion, we make our way back and roll down the winding roads to the now familiar east coast, which welcomes us with open arms. The drive will be just as exciting as the arrival - and maybe we'll even experience an unforgettable sunset! In the evening, a special highlight awaits us: a traditional Sardinian dinner with dear friends. In a warm, cozy atmosphere, we will end the day with excellent, homemade food. Don't let the tempting appetizers fill you up too soon, as the main course is guaranteed to catapult you into culinary heaven!

A well-deserved break day

Today we're just going to do exactly what we feel like - no fixed plans, just pure freedom! For some, that probably means even more adventures on two wheels. So grab your machine and take a ride through the countryside - or get some insider tips for exciting excursions in the area to explore new, undiscovered corners. But don’t worry, those who prefer to take it a little easier today can also look forward to a relaxed day. Let the curves be curves and treat yourself to something different. How about a cozy boat tour along the coast, where you can admire the impressive nature from the water? Or just let your soul dangle and enjoy the sun on the beach - no stress, just switch off and relax.

Questions about the tour itinerary?

Our tour guide is happy to answer any questions about the day-by-day route, stops, and details.

We explore the south

Today our motorcycle journey takes us to the sunny south of the island, and as always, the legendary curves are the focus of our adventure. First, we ride through the charming Perdasdefogu, a remote village in the mountains of Salto di Quirra. The place is particularly known for the nearby military training area, and part of the village consists of an impressive barracks complex - an impressive sight that reflects the military heritage of the region. We continue through Dolianova, a true gem for wine lovers. This region boasts numerous excellent cantinas where you can taste the best Sardinian wines. Don't worry if you can't enjoy the wines on site - they are also available in local supermarkets in Sardinia, so you can take a piece of this unique region home with you. After Dolianova, we leave the mountainous inland and slowly head towards the coast. From now on, we have the sea always on our right side and accompany it on our way. We pass the Costa Rei, which is rightly called the "King's Coast." The 8-kilometer long, powdery white sandy beach practically invites a break. Depending on the time of day, we stop here to have lunch in this setting - overlooking the sparkling sea and the vast horizon.

Mountains Supramonte and Gennargentu

Today is already our last day on the motorcycles - one week goes by far too quickly! But don’t worry, we’re making the most of our last day and exploring once again the heart of Sardinia: the wild inland with the majestic mountains of Supramonte and Gennargentu. These landscapes offer us everything we love about curves and nature - from steep mountain passes to breathtaking views. Along the way, we pass through the picturesque Mamoiada, a small, traditional mountain village known for its fascinating Carnival masks. These masks, which are deeply rooted in Sardinian culture, have a mystical quality and are a true symbol of the island. If the mood allows, we’ll take a look at the tiny but incredibly lovingly designed mask museum of the place. Here you learn everything about the history and significance of the masks - a truly unique insight into Sardinian tradition.

To the port or departure

After a relaxed breakfast, we're heading towards the port early today. Of course, we'll take a few last curves to properly enjoy the route, but the view of the destination clearly takes priority today. Those flying back today will be taken directly to the airport, while the others, who are taking the ferry with us, still have a little time to soak up the last impressions of the island. Before we say our final goodbyes, we'll treat ourselves to a culinary delight one last time: In the evening, we'll enjoy the last authentic Sardinian pizza together - an absolute must to properly conclude this trip. After that, it’s “on to the ship” and enjoy the evening in peace as we slowly say goodbye to the island.

Individual journey home from Genoa

This day is entirely dedicated to the individual journey home. After the ferry crossing, our paths will part, but don't worry, the adventure doesn't end here. If we transport your motorcycle for you, we are already looking forward to seeing you in Tübingen when you pick up your bike there. That way, a piece of Sardinia stays with you a little longer - and maybe the memories of this unforgettable trip as well.
