View Route & Departures →India offers motorcycle explorers one of the most intoxicating riding contrasts on the planet. In the north, the mighty Himalayas break through the clouds into the trans-Himalayan high plateau of Ladakh and Spiti Valley. Here, glaciers carve through desolate scree slopes, prayer flags crown mountain passes hovering near 18,000 feet, and ancient Tibetan-Buddhist gompas cling precariously to razor-sharp granite needles.
In contrast, our southern expeditions trace the sun-drenched coastal highways of Portuguese-heritage Goa and the Western Ghats. Carve along emerald spice plantation switchbacks, colonial whitewashed church plazas, and endless coconut groves along the Arabian Sea.
From the lunar passes of Ladakh and Spiti to the tropical curves of Goa, compare our signature India motorcycle expeditions.
