Scotland Self-Drive Road Trip 2018

Scotland is the most beautiful part of Britain. The mountains, the meadows, the lochs and the stunning skies in the Scottish countryside create spectacular landscapes and the cliffed coastline offers dramatic views.

The country has some of the best riding roads in the world and MotoRover is offering you the chance to explore them on BMW motorcycles! There are five motorcycle options to select from and the small group size will ensure a personalised experience.

MotoRover’s guide on the lead bike will look after the navigation, speed limits, re-fuelling stops and breakdown assistance, while a sweep car will follow the group to ensure none of the riders lose their way. The sweep car will also have a few empty seats, a first-aid kit, a photographer and the rider’s luggage.

This weeklong motorcycle tour will start and end in Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh. Highlights of the route include the Scottish Highlands, the famous North Coast 500 circuit and the stunning Isle of Skye. Enjoy Scottish music, discover the whisky heritage, taste the local food and try to pick up the brogue Scottish accent when you interact with the locals.
