Detailed Itinerary

Arrive at Kochi, Kerala's bustling port city. You will be transferred to your accommodation in the historic Fort Kochi area. The evening is reserved for the essential Tour Briefing, meeting your fellow riders, and the highly anticipated Bike Handover. Take a moment to settle in and soak up the unique atmosphere of this coastal melting pot.

A short, comfortable ride down the Malabar Coast. This gentle introduction to riding in Kerala leads us to Alleppey (Alappuzha), the "Venice of the East." Check in and spend the afternoon on a mesmerizing houseboat cruise (optional) or simply relax by the famous Alleppey Backwaters. Swap the highway rumble for the gentle lap of the water.

The quintessential Kerala ride. The road climbs steadily and beautifully, cutting through endless emerald tea plantations. The air grows cool and fragrant. Munnar sits at a high altitude, providing some of the most spectacular, panoramic views of rolling hills in all of India. This day features winding curves and excellent tarmac, perfect for experienced riders.

A long, full day in the saddle crossing into Tamil Nadu. The ride traverses varied terrain, from deep forest reserves to high mountain passes of the Nilgiri Hills. The final approach to Ooty ("Queen of Hills") is famous for its misty atmosphere and colonial charm. This route is excellent for high-speed cruising combined with technical mountain sections.

A short but intensely thrilling ride. We descend the famous Kalhatti Ghat, navigating its 36 sharp, adrenaline-pumping hairpin bends a mandatory challenge for any serious biker. Once off the Ghats, the ride flattens out, taking us to Mysore, the opulent royal city known for its palaces and sandalwood.

Begin the day with a visit to the magnificent Mysore Palace before mounting up. The ride takes us northwest into the green, rolling hills of Karnataka. This region is the coffee heartland of India. The roads are scenic, well-maintained, and weave through aromatic coffee and pepper estates, leading to the pleasant hill town of Chikmagalur.

This is a focused, long-haul riding day. We leave the cool, fertile hills behind and transition onto the arid plains of the Deccan Plateau. The landscape changes dramatically from lush green to the surreal, boulder-strewn terrain that announces our arrival at the ancient city of Hampi. Requires disciplined riding and endurance.

A vital rest day for you and your machine. We explore the incredible UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hampi, the spectacular former capital of the Vijayanagara Empire. Spend the day wandering through the ruins, marveling at the Virupaksha Temple, the Royal Enclosure, and the famous Stone Chariot at the Vittala Temple complex.

A short, comfortable ride across the flat plains to Badami. This site is renowned for its architectural marvels—magnificent 6th-century rock-cut cave temples carved into red sandstone cliffs. The afternoon is spent exploring the caves and the surrounding lake, offering incredible photo opportunities.

The final decisive riding day. We head due west, descending from the plateau back toward the coast. The final kilometres offer the distinct coastal tropical air as we cross the border into Goa. The sense of arrival is palpable as we transition from the ancient ruins to the lively beaches.

A well-deserved full day of leisure. Choose your own adventure: relax on the golden sand, enjoy some famous Goan seafood, or simply unwind by the resort pool. The bikes are parked, and the celebration begins!

Free day to explore historical sites like the Old Goa Churches (UNESCO World Heritage) or indulge in optional water sports and shopping. The evening features our final Farewell Dinner, celebrating the memories and kilometers conquered.

The tour officially concludes. Bike Handover and transfer to the warehouse. A final group Farewell Dinner is held this evening to celebrate the successful expedition. This also serves as a necessary buffer day.

Enjoy a final breakfast. Depending on your flight schedule, you will be transferred to Goa International Airport for your onward journey, carrying the memories of Kerala's backwaters, Karnataka's ruins, and Goa's beaches. Until the next adventure!
