Motorcycle Tours Scotland

We have always offered a broad range of Scottish Tours and 2026 is no exception. We have several bespoke tours already booked; one for just a couple and another for a family group of riders.

Some of these tours focus on parts of the nation's history, one concentrating on locations in Scotland used in the filming of the Outlander TV series, and all traversing great twisty roads.

During recent years two areas in particular have been the most requested.

The Scottish Highlands and Islands, and the North Coast 500

Our Scottish Highland Tour remains one of our most popular and rewarding experiences. Starting near Glasgow, this guided journey takes you deep into the heart of the Highlands, combining dramatic landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and some of the finest riding roads in the UK.

Over the course of seven days, you shall explore iconic locations such as the Isles of Mull and Skye, Glenfinnan, and the Cairngorms, ride legendary routes like the Bealach na Bà, and visit castles, lochs, and historic villages. Each day offers a carefully curated blend of scenic riding, cultural stops, and opportunities to experience authentic Highland hospitality.

This tour is ideal for riders seeking a balance of adventure and comfort. You will stay in quality hotels and inns, enjoy hearty meals, and have the option to hire a well-maintained motorcycle from our trusted fleet. Whether you're travelling solo or with a pillion, this tour offers a rich and immersive way to experience Scotland’s natural beauty and storied past.

Scotish Islands and Highlands Tour

One of our most popular circuits takes you deep into the Scottish Highlands, incorporating the best stretches of the iconic North Coast 500 while also venturing off the beaten path to include roads that motorcyclists truly love. Starting and ending in Glasgow, this tour crosses the country, passing through famous landmarks and scenic regions, including the breathtaking Isles of Skye and Mull, before returning via the dramatic landscapes of Glencoe.

Riders can expect a thrilling mix of winding roads, sweeping vistas, and unforgettable scenery. From rolling hills and towering mountains to over 30,000 lochs and countless islands, Scotland offers a riding experience like no other. It's no wonder Rough Guide readers voted it the most beautiful country in the world.
Scottish Highlands Motorcycle Tour

Some riders prefer the freedom to chart their own course, and we fully support that spirit of adventure. When our bikes are not in use on guided tours, they are available for hire. So, if you are planning a self-guided motorcycle tour in Scotland, you can rent a quality, well-maintained bike directly from us. Whether you are exploring the Highlands, the Borders, or the rugged west coast, having the right bike makes all the difference. We offer a range of models to suit different riding styles, and we are happy to provide route suggestions if you would like a little inspiration. Learn more here:

Alpine Motorcycle Tours

In June 2026, McTours returns to the majestic Alps, one of Europe's most iconic motorcycling destinations. We first introduced an Alpine tour to our itinerary in 2009, and since then, this region has remained a firm favourite among our riders. Over the years, we have explored all of the great mountain passes and scenic routes that make the Alps a must-ride for any serious motorcyclist.

This particular tour focuses on the Western Alps, a region beloved by many of our past clients. From the sparkling waters of Lake Geneva to the dramatic peaks to the east in the Dolomites and South Tyrol, this area offers a perfect blend of thrilling roads, breathtaking scenery, and authentic local charm.

The route begins and ends in Geneva, offering a convenient gateway into the heart of Europe. Over ten days, you shall ride through a carefully curated selection of alpine passes and valleys, experiencing the best of Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Germany and France. Each day brings a new adventure, whether it is carving through hairpin bends, cruising along lakeside roads, or pausing to take in panoramic mountain views.

As always, our tours are fully guided and supported, with quality accommodation, great food, and well-maintained motorcycles available for hire. Whether you're a returning guest or joining us for the first time, this Alpine motorcycle adventure promises an unforgettable riding experience.

Motorcycle Tours Spain and Portugal

We return to Northern Spain and Portugal in May 2026, regions we have come to know well through years of careful research and exploration. Spain was added to our tour portfolio in 2015, followed by Portugal in 2016, after extensive route planning to ensure we offered only the most rewarding riding experiences.

We quickly discovered the exceptional quality of Spanish roads, particularly in regions like Andalucía, the Pyrenees, and along the Spanish-Portuguese border. In 2016, we expanded into the the Algarve and later that year the Douro Valley and ended that year exploring the stunning Picos de Europa.

This tour takes riders through a series of spectacular national parks—including Picos de Europa, Redes, Las Ubinas-La Mesa, and Somiedo, while passing through the diverse landscapes of Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia, and Castilla y Leon in northwestern Spain, before continuing into northern Portugal. Riders joining this motorcycle tour can expect twisty, technical roads that challenge and delight, all set against a backdrop of breathtaking scenery.

Visiting many national parks including Picos de Europa, Redes, Las Ubiñas-La Mesa, Somiedo and passing through Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia, Castilla and Leon in Northwestern Spain and onwards into Northern Portugal, riders will find the roads twisty and at times quite technical but always scenic.

Motorcycle Tours England

Northumberland, Yorkshire and the Lake District have always been popular areas for us because these offer a change from Glasgow and are easily reached. With a growing number of our UK based clients looking for a staycation we added The Cotswolds, Devon and Cornwall and have updated two of our former tours that embrace our favoured routes in the North of England.

This tour takes you through some of the most scenic and rewarding motorcycling terrain in Northern England, combining dramatic landscapes, historic towns, and winding country roads. Starting in the Lake District and ending in Northumberland, the route explores four iconic regions: Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors, and the Pennines.

Each day offers a new riding experience, from the rugged beauty of the Pennine hills to the serene lakes and mountain passes of Cumbria. You can cruise through the rolling green valleys of the Yorkshire Dales, where dry-stone walls and charming villages line the route, before heading east to the sweeping heather-covered moorlands of North Yorkshire.

This tour is ideal for riders who enjoy varied terrain, moderate daily distances, and the chance to soak in local culture along the way. Expect a mix of technical twisties, scenic sweepers, and relaxed cruising, mostly on tarmacadam roads. As always with McTours, you will stay in quality hotels with private en-suite rooms, enjoy hearty meals, and benefit from expert guidance throughout.

Whether you are drawn by the natural beauty, the historic sites, or simply the joy of riding through some of England's most picturesque regions, this tour offers a perfect blend of comfort, adventure, and discovery.
