Italy

 

Milan to the Isle of Man (and the famous TT festival)
Highlights
This is a great experience for any true motorcyclist, an experience that every biker should live at least once.  The whole island is "covered" with bikes, the island lives for the bikes, with the bikes, and for the Bike Road Races. The T.T. from a technical point of view is no longer important, the Race is not in any particular championship calendar, but it still remains an important international meeting for the feeling and the folklore that you can live on the island during the two weeks of the Festival. On top of that our tour takes the enthusiast through  Europe during two incredible weeks of roads, culture, cuisine, monuments, roads and motorcycles, of course.
