Over the years, the India has steadily itself off its comfort zone and has come to accept that holidaying is not just about getting from A to B and back. This is the reason the outcropping of newer experiential  and adventure tourism.  Maneuver  a rickshaw in the chaotic traffic of Mumbai, haul in a massive tuna with the fisherman in the Arabian Sea or even join a motorcycle gang and ride all the way across the country.


Tour operators are waking up to the fact that holiday packages in India are not what they used to be. Of late, there has been spike in travelers looking for something more from their Indian holiday package. Not anymore are travelers  satisfied being a passive onlooker, instead they seek to plunge right into the middle of the action. While this form of  personalized, participative travel is still in the nascent stages, it is slowly finding traction amongst holidaymakers. Of the customized tours,  motorcycle tours are fast garnering a ardent group of followers.

Motorcycle tours offers are the perfect option for travelers who love to traverse the country on a bike but hate to deal with the hassles that goes into the planning. Tour operators handle everything from supplying a reliable motorcycle, clearing all permits and dealing with logistics like lodging, fuel, spares and repairs. This leaves the traveler with the best part of the journey – riding, exploring places and having fun.


Most of the motorcycle tours  in India are owned and arranged by seasoned riders who have traveled extensively across the country and have sound knowledge of the terrain and culture.  Some opine  that guided motorcycle tours take away from the excitement and freedom elements of the ride. To counter this, motorcycle tour operators have come up with customized tours to counter this. For customized tours, the travelers can opt for minimal intrusion from fellow riders/guides and use their services only in medical or mechanical emergencies.  Motorcycle tourism offers a mix of adventure, opportunity to explore remote areas, and the exhilaration of freedom. All this makes it an attractive holiday package for travelers.
