If there is a route in Europe that captures the imagination of motorcyclists, it is the North Coast 500 in Scotland. We're going there in June, when conditions for motorcycling are at their most favourable. You'll experience the Scottish Highlands at their best: winding, scenic roads, rugged coastline, lakes and castles, plus a northern climate that makes every day in the saddle memorable.

You'll ride beautiful tarmac routes, winding between moonlit wetlands and whisky distilleries. "You 'll 'pass' the popular Road to the Isles, voted Britain's most beautiful motorbike route. You'll rest in comfortable hotels with breakfast included in the price of the trip, and enjoy tasty local cuisine en route. The date of the trip has been chosen so that the weather for motorcycling is the best of the year.
What you will see:
Moonlit wetlands, whisky distilleries, Scotland's famous castles - Dunrobin Castle, home of the Earl of Sutherland, the Loch Ness Monster and a location made famous by the set of the 'Harry Potter' film.You'll also see Farr Bay, Durness - Britain's most northerly town, the 60-metre cliffs around Old Man Stoer and the 60-metre Kilt Rock waterfall perched on the cliffs.
Additional attractions:
Whisky tasting from local distilleries and tour of Edinburgh, accompanied by a Polish-speaking local guide.
PERFECTLY PLANNED PANORAMIC ROUTES
In our search for the best routes, we decided to call on quiet and peaceful Scotland. The region is famous for its beautiful and majestic views, castles, mysterious lakes, including the famous Loch Ness, and centuries-old whisky distilleries. Of course, there is also what we like best - narrow, winding motorcycle trails winding endlessly through beautiful natural settings.
WHEN DO YOU START? In June, when the weather in this part of the Island is best for riding. We realize that most associate Scotland with rather cloudy, rainy weather. It's no fun to ride in the rain. But not in June! This is the month with the most favorable weather conditions and the least amount of rainfall. You ride a motorcycle to Scotland confident that the weather will be good.
WHAT WILL YOU SEE? You ride on the northern coast of Scotland and in the central part of the country. We have selected and tested for you routes that provide positive experiences in every aspect. They are excitingly winding, tarmac and quiet - not besieged by crowds of drivers, yet they lead through amazing areas where nature still shows who's boss. You'll discover the fascinating history of Scotland along the route, and get a taste of it in the form of original whisky when you put the motorcycle down.
HOLIDAY - CLIMATIC AND COMFORTABLE HOTELS in 4* standard
Getting to know the beautiful face of Scotland, we have planned accommodation on the route in equally atmospheric places. These are boutique hotels reflecting the spirit of the real Scotland and at the same time representing a high standard ****, so that everyone, in dignified conditions, can comfortably rest here. The selected hotels you will visit are often associated with a local whisky distillery, and this means that every evening you will have the opportunity to taste in good company the original Scotch.
