Vintage Rides has been sharing its passion for extraordinary motorcycle tours in Asia for more than 15 years. In keeping with our original concept, we guide you across Asia on tours to destinations that are exotic and authentic. Our motorbike Asia road trips take you to the heart of eight destinations in Asia: India, Nepal, Bhutan, Mongolia, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Laos and Indonesia.

MOTORBIKE TOURS IN INDIA

The birthplace of the Royal Enfield, India is the Vintage Rides base camp. Depending on the season and your preferences, we can take you from the highest peaks of the Indian Himalayas to authentic rural regions, with a range of motorcycle tours in India to show you the beauty of this immense country. Many riders get excited about Ladakh and the Trans-Himalayan, a once-in-a-lifetime road that brings you to the border of Tibet while crossing the highest motorable pass in the world. While in north India, Rajasthan is a must for anyone who wants to be amazed by the changing scenery. Hedonists usually opt for South India to explore the ancient colonial towns Pondicherry and Fort Kochi. Also, they enjoy the natural beauty of Kerala, its backwaters, spice gardens and tea plantations. Other travellers want different types of motorcycle tours and focus on Madhya Pradesh or Odisha, two regions with timeless charm.

MOTORBIKE TOURS IN NEPAL

The roads of Kathmandu, Lake Pokhara, Kathmandu Valley, thousand-year-old temples and mountain villages. No matter how many times we visit, Nepal has always mesmerised the Vintage Rides team. Consequently, our longing to explore the Himalayas and Annapurna led us to design motorcycle adventure tours to Mustang. These are some of the most amazing Royal Enfield motorbike trips in Asia. For experienced bikers, an off-road tour of Nepal shows off the world’s highest peaks. Nepalese hospitality, unreal landscapes and rocky Himalayan tracks win over every biker!

MOTORBIKE TOURS IN BHUTAN

How about a motorcycle tour of Bhutan? This little kingdom hidden in the heart of the Himalayas guarantees an unforgettable experience. Nicknamed “The Country of Happiness”, Bhutan has made a name for itself worldwide for its Gross National Happiness index. Cruise on some of the most beautiful motorcycle roads on earth, cross high-altitude passes and visit the most traditional villages in the world. Also in Bhutan, religious fervour comes alive during Buddhist festivals. The monks dancing in the immense Dzongs’ courtyards and imposing monasteries amaze onlookers. A motorcycle tour in Bhutan takes you deep into another world, somewhere close to paradise.

MOTORBIKE TOURS IN MONGOLIA

With vast unspoilt regions, free from buildings, roads, fences and farmlands, very few countries offer such a great feeling of freedom. The aim of this journey is to venture into some of the most immense open spaces you will ever experience: the never-ending steppes. Simply put, Mongolia is unlike any other destination. Wild and authentic, its sheer diversity of landscapes and the locals’ hospitality never cease to amaze. Beneath the yurt, every encounter with nomads leaves lasting memories.
