ARRIVAL DAY (DAY 1 – OPATIJA)
Welcome to Croatia! Your adventure begins in the elegant coastal town of Opatija, famed for its stunning Adriatic vistas, fine cuisine, and charming promenades.
Upon arrival, you'll check into a comfortable hotel—your base for the duration of the tour.
While there’s no riding scheduled today, feel free to soak up the relaxed seaside ambiance. Stroll along Opatija’s waterfront, enjoy a leisurely coffee, or let the gentle sea breeze usher you into vacation mode.
RIDING DAY 1
After a hearty breakfast, we'll gather for a detailed morning briefing. The guides will review the route for the day, discuss safety protocols, and answer any last-minute questions. With the briefing complete, the moment you've been waiting for arrives!
We'll head out to the parking area, where your assigned scooter will be waiting for you, prepped and ready to go.
Standard Route (206 km / 128 miles)
Today we ride west, across the Istrian peninsula. The ride combines beautiful, twisty roads and breathtaking views along the coastline. Crossing the peninsula in the morning to Poreč will give you firsthand insights into Croatian culture. Our destination will be the Limski Ria, or Limski Canal in English. It is 11 km long and winds its way from the coast to the Croatian hinterland. The nature reserve offers numerous beautiful viewpoints.
A visit to the picturesque old town of Porec should not be missed during a holiday or visit to Istria. In the old town, the Roman town planning has been preserved to this day.
We will head back to Opatija in the afternoon trying to arrive early enough to be able to go for a swim!
RIDING DAY 2
Standard Route (180 km / 112 miles)
Today's journey takes us to Slovenia, also known as "green Slovenia", as 60% of the country is covered with forest. Due to its geographical location, Slovenia offers a dreamlike mixture of impressive mountains, idyllic valleys, highlands and lowlands, and the Mediterranean coast. We ride through this unspoiled landscape, stopping for a short coffee break in between, before reaching our destination for the day, the Postojna Caves.
In the afternoon, on our way back to Croatia, we take side roads to the area around Buzet. Another short coffee break and soon we return to Opatija.
RIDING DAY 3
Standard Route (170 km / 106 miles)
Are you ready to explore the islands? Another great day awaits us: we start early to take the ferry from Brestova to the island of Cres. The freshwater lake Vrana is a crypto depression whose lake bottom lies at a depth of 74 m below the sea surface, while the surface of the lake is higher than that of the surrounding sea.
After exploring half of the island, we continue to the second ferry of the day, which takes us to the neighboring island of Krk. The island of Krk itself is unique - be it because of its long history, its valuable cultural heritage, its nature, or its beautiful bathing bays. There are 60 small villages, towns, and municipalities on Krk with about 18,000 inhabitants. In the high season, the number of inhabitants rises to about 100,000 due to holidaymakers - a sign of how popular the island is with people from all over Europe.
To get back to the mainland, we will use the spectacular bridge, from where it is a short but beautiful drive back to Opatija. Opatija, Lim canal and its majestic flair
RIDING DAY 4
Standard Route (140 km / 87 miles)
A beautiful ride awaits us as we visit the Risnjak National Park, simply breathtaking.
The Risnjak National Park, located in the hinterland of Rijeka, covers an area of approximately 64 km². The park forms a barrier between the coast and the continental part of Croatia. The distance to the coast is about 15 km and the highest mountain is the peak of Risnjak at 1528 m. Risnjak is the geological crossover in age and size between the Alps to the Balkan Mountains - the Alps being the youngest and highest, the Istrian range somewhat older lower, and the Balkans the oldest and lowest. In 1953, the region was declared a national park by the Croatian government. The national park was named after the lynx (Croatian "ris") living there. Lynxes and other wild animals such as bears, wolves, and eagles live in this beautiful nature reserve. There are also deer, chamois, wild boar, and over 110 different species of birds. There are two observation stations in the park: the Lazac Hut and the Leski Observatory.
You may be surprised to see that for most of the day, we will be the only ones on these small but good quality roads of this mountainous area, although it may seem a short ride, the road is twisty and the scenery outstanding. While in the park, why not go for a short hike? Make sure you have some comfy shoes on board!
RIDING DAY 5
Standard Route (200 km / 124 miles)
Our route takes us to the most southern part of the Istrian Peninsula, to Pula. A town full of history, dating back as far as the year 6000 BC! It possesses a huge amount of Roman ruins, between them, the best preserved Roman arena, the Pula Arena. Since we are taking the coastal road we will stop every now and then to enjoy many of the beautiful viewpoints. One of them will also serve us as an afternoon coffee stop and reward us with a superb panoramic view in the direction of Cres Island.
As you arrive back at your hotel, you will park the bikes for the last time. Your trusty motorcycle, which has been your partner on this incredible journey, will be handed over back, marking the official end of our riding portion of the tour. The engines fall silent, but the memories will continue to hum long after.
This is your moment to reflect on the adventures.
DEPARTURE DAY (DAY 7 – OPATIJA)
