SOUTHERN SPAIN - ANDALUSIA (SG)

Discover the Soul of Southern Spain – Andalusia Discovery Ride

Escape the gray winter and kick off your riding season with a one‑week blast through Spain’s sun‑drenched south—where cliff roads, white villages, and mountain passes come together in a rider’s dream. Starting and finishing in Málaga, this 8‑day tour with 6 riding days links the best of the Costa del Sol, the high shoulders of the Sierra Nevada, and the wild curves of the Grazalema mountains—packed with culture, scenery, and roads you’ll talk about for years. Stay in unique historic and boutique 4‑star hotels.

You will warm up over Puerto del León above Málaga before climbing the legendary Carretera de la Cabra toward Granada. From there it’s olive‑grove country around Jaén, the sweeping bends of the Sierras Subbéticas, and turquoise views over the Iznájar Reservoir. The route swings past El Chorro’s dramatic gorge and the Caminito del Rey, then into balcony roads and condor country around Zahara de la Sierra, Puerto del Boyar, and Puerto de las Palomas. You cap it with the A‑397 into Marbella—followed by a final ride into the mountains for a money‑shot view of the Mediterranean.

Expect a perfect mix of flowing twisties, a few tight hairpins, and photo‑worthy stops in places like Ronda, Setenil de las Bodegas, Antequera, and Granada’s old quarters. Evenings are for tapas, local wines, and sunset walks—think big riding days balanced with authentic Andalusian vibes.

Bring your own bike or choose a premium BMW rental with panniers, top case, GPS, and full insurance. Routes are fully scouted and hotels are handpicked. This tour is for riders who want more than just great roads—it’s for those chasing that feeling of freedom, the buzz of a well‑paced group, and the magic of Southern Spain.

Get ready for the ultimate Andalusia motorcycle week—where every day brings a new highlight and every ridge line opens to sea and sky.

"I've had the pleasure of going on a trip with Oliver for the second time now, and his trips do not disappoint. I can't imagine how much work he puts into all the little things that really make an impression—route choices, local knowledge, everything. Good conversations and laughter on the road and in the evenings, and the community you build on these trips is something special. I'm left with good memories and a smile on my face from this Andalusia trip. The next trip for 2026 is already booked and I can hardly wait. If you're considering a trip with Oliver, you will not be disappointed!"

Every day was packed with adventure and excitement!"
