About this tour
A 5–6 hour guided motorcycle tour on a Ducati around Lake Como and into the Italian and Swiss Alps. You'll ride scenic alpine passes and lakeside roads with Mauro, a local guide, stopping for photography, coffee, and lunch at spots most visitors miss. Bike, helmet, jacket and gloves are provided; you need a valid passport and valid motorcycle licence. Suits confident riders aged 18+ who want to experience the region on two wheels rather than by car or bus.

What to expect
You'll meet your guide and be fitted with a helmet, jacket and gloves, then brief on the day's route and riding style. From there, you follow Mauro on a combination of alpine switchbacks and lakeside roads, typically stopping three to four times over the five to six hours—once for coffee, once for lunch, and one or more for photographs or a swim (summer only). You'll cover around 100–150 km at a steady pace that suits the group's confidence level. The ride wraps with a return to the starting point.
