ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE 10-DAY BEST OF RUSSIA MOTORCYCLE TOUR

Russia is huge and Russia has thousands of years of history. A melting pot of local tribes and native Clans mixed with people descending from the Chinese, Mongols, European, and Nordic people. So to try and pretend we’d cover Russia completely on a 10-day best of Russia Motorcycle Tour would be nonsense. Instead, we have chosen to focus our Russia tour on the ride between the impressive and important cultural and historic centers – Moscow and Saint Petersburg – as they are the perfect introduction to Russia.
