Started in 1996 White Rose tours are now one of the leading companies on the UK touring scene. In 2003 at the request of our customers, we started touring on the continent, this as proved so successful that we now split our touring season between the two.
Our tours in the UK are mainly guided and cover what we consider to be the best bike tour areas in the country. Led by our local guide you have no need of maps or route sheets, you can relax and enjoy the views, safe in the knowledge that you are seeing the best scenery, visiting the right places and riding some superb biking roads.
Many people are apprehensive about riding in a group, however we use a simple ‘drop-off’ system which allows people to ride at their own pace. All our tours are at an easy, relaxed pace, catering for riders of all abilities. There are frequent stops for fuel, coffee or just to stretch your legs. These tours are a great introduction to motorcycle touring holidays.
This year there will be a combination of weekend, short break and longer tours covering the following areas:
Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors, Western Dales, English Lake District, Northern Pennines, Hadrian's Wall Country, Dumfries & Galloway, Wales, Scottish Borders , NW200 races and Southern Ireland.
Destinations on our European tours change each year, as we continually search out the best scenery, biking roads and accommodation that Europe has to offer. On European tours we supply maps, suggested routes and all the information you require to make your way to your destination. However you will also be escorted at all times, by an experienced tour guide, who you may ride with should you wish. Once at your tour destination, your time is your own, your guide will be able to advise you on suggested itineraries or you may wish to join one of the many ride-outs.
Our 2008 tours are now fully booked - and we have run out of brochures, however if you would like to be one of the first to get a 2009 brochure - please register here in the normal way and we will put you on our mailing list, alternatively check our website at www.motorcycletours.co.uk.
