Bonjour,
Nous aimerions faire un circuit à moto en Sardaigne la première quinzaine d'août prochain. Nous faisons de l'itinérant sans réserver, est ce qu'à cette période c'est réalisable en camping?
Merci

Itinérant à moto en Sardaigne?

This discussion is in French, the community’s main language.
Août est le mois le plus chargé en Italie, car en plus des Européens, les Italiens eux-mêmes sont en vacances 🤪
Je ne suis pas une experte des campings mais je ne crois pas qu'ils échappent à la règle malheureusement...

Merci pour la réponse.
Peut-être que dans les terres c'est moins chargé.
Si quelqu'un a l'expérience...

Le mois d'août est très chargé en Sardaigne, ils sont envahis de tous les côtés !
Une amie y est allée seule en moto et même pour sa petite tente igloo, impossible de trouver un emplacement dans les campings au bord de mer ! Par contre à l'intérieur, cétait très tranquille mais bon vu la température qu'il y fait, on n'a qu'une envie, c'est d'aller se baigner
Nous avons fait le tour de Sardaigne + intérieur la première quinzaine d'avril, nous étions souvent seuls, les autochtones adorables et serviables, le paradis !

Merci Mireille,
Nous n'avons pas le choix dans les dates de vacances hélas.
Mais nous sommes plus intéressés par l'intérieur des terres que par la côte. C'est moins touristique et il y a plus de belles choses à découvrir. C'était le cas quand nous avons découvert la Corse.
Y a t-il suffisamment de camping dans les terres? Est ce que les routes sont similaires à l'intérieur de la Corse ou moins en épingle à cheveux?

A notre grande surprise, le revêtement des routes était nickel, un beau ruban de bitume qui permet d'enrouler les virages successifs sans appréhension
C'est beaucoup moins tortueux qu'en Corse et pour cause, il y a nettement moins de dénivellés mais c'est magnifique La carte Michelin a du être faite par des fainéants parce-que très souvent, les tracés ne correspondaient pas avec la réalité (grandes lignes droites annoncées alors que ça tournicotait dans tous les sens pour notre plus grand bonheur)
Pour ce qui est des campings, nous avons souvent campé au bord de mer et la seule fois où nous avons dormi "à l'intérieur" nous avons du prendre un hôtel, pas de camping dans les parages... Le routard a enfin sorti un guide en 2012, faudrait aller y voir de plus près 😉
On y retournera un jour, c'est évident 🙂

Hola Guycalvados !! 😉
Pays magnifique, surtout les côtes, beaucoup, vraiment beaucoup de monde en été, les sardes des gens adorables, mais au risque de te décevoir je ne vais pas te parler camping puisque j'y étais en bateau 😛 Etant motard moi-même, je voulais juste évoquer la conduite en Sardaigne !! J'y ai loué à plusieurs reprises des voitures, et je dirais que les sardes ont une conduite "suprenante" 😏 Les lignes continues sont souvent là pour le simple décor, dans les virages la tendance est de prendre toute la place et en arrivant en face ça "fait drôle", quand aux limitations de vitesse en dehors de certaines (rares) sorties de villes ou villages plus spécialement surveillés par la maréchaussée locale, la fonction des panneaux semble essentiellement destinée à servir de perchoirs aux piafs 😄 Rarement vu des uniformes sur la route, ou alors juste à l'entrée des villes, notamment Cagliari sur la route de l'aéroport, Sassari en direction d'Alghero, et sortie de l'aéroport d'Alghero vers la petite ville de Fertilia. L'usage du téléphone en conduisant est la règle, même pour les chauffeurs de bus de passagers ... mais pas de problèmes quand on est "prévenu" et que l'on se met au diapason de la conduite locale. Mais je me répète, j'ai fait le tour de l'île avec mon bateau qui est resté là bas une année entière, je n'y ai rencontré que des gens souriants, disponibles pour aider ou renseigner, patients avec les touristes, faisant l'effort de parler même si l'interlocuteur ne parle pas italien ...etc, tout le contraire d'une autre île de la région 😕 Hasta luego 😎

Bonjour
nous allons tous les ans en moto en au mois de mai et cette année nous avons voulu innover en allant en sardaigne
Contrairement aux autres avis nous n'avons pas du tout aimé. Si les sardes sont charmants , les paysages et les routes n'ont vraiment rien a voir avec la corse. pas de routes en bord de mer car tout est cloturé et reservé aux hotels de luxe et aux agriturismos. En plus 5 jours de pluie sur 7 . Nous avons adoré revenirr les 3 derniers jours en corse....
je ne sais pas de quel côté vous êtes allés rouler pour ne pas voir la mer de près 😮
Pour n'en citer que deux, il y a la route fabuleuse et viroleuse de Alghero à Bosa (côte ouest) qui longe et surplombe la mer sur près de 50kms sans aucune habitation
sans oublier celle qui mène à Cagliari par le sud (environ 60kms), certainement une des plus belles routes côtières d'europe 😉

Merci à tous pour vos infos! 😉
Désolé pour la pluie de mai (1 année sur 3 en moyenne), tant mieux en juillet, tout était très vert au regard des autres années (sauf 2010)
quant aux route de bords de mer, avec une bonne carte, tant sur macadam, terrre, sable, un tiers de l'ile peut être parcouru en longeant le bord de mer... comme la Costa Verde, juste au-dessus des falaises (Sinis, Tharros, Oristano) ou la route en balcon de Muravera à Pula en passant par le bord de mer (Poetto) dans Cagliari !
La Sardaigne est le paradis du 4x4, chaque année, j'emmène des équipages et mon RB approche à cet instant les 3 000 km avec combien de bivouacs en bord de mer et dans la nature avec la mer à 20 non disons 30 m !
Par contre, en août, il ne faut pas compter être en sauvage sur le bord de mer, tandis que dans un peu plus d'un mois, je serai au calme avec la tranquilité garantie.
Pour les bivouacs, chercher les San ...... ou Santa ...... chapelle, sanctuaire, etc. ou les maisons forestières des Corpo Forestale, il y a quasiment à 95 % des lieux aménagés par leurs soins, avec BBC, tables et bancs en marbre, pierre ou bois, avec de l'eau potable prsque partout !
sur la route, ne pas hésiter à utiliser le klaxon, surtout sur les toutes petites routes avec très peu de visibilité..... un avantage, les sardes ne roulent pas vite en général !
bonne balade

Hi there,
With two friends, we just got back from a two-week trip across Sri Lanka on a Royal Enfield 350cc Classic, without going through a specialized agency.
I organized everything myself.
If you need any info, I’ve written a trip report and put together a financial breakdown of our adventure.

Hello everyone.
I'm looking for campsites around BOLZANO (South Tyrol) for early September.
I'll be on my motorcycle with a small tent.
I've noticed that some campsites have exorbitant prices.
If you've traveled through the Dolomites by motorcycle or otherwise and camped there, I'd love any tips on places and prices where I can stay for one night or several.
Thanks to all of you, and happy travels.
Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,
I’m starting to think about a trip that’s really close to my heart: Algeria by motorcycle, specifically the southern part of the country. It’d be for January 2025, and I’ve got two main questions:
Is it possible for an individual on a motorcycle to travel freely, outside of any organized tour, or does the regulation require some kind of supervision in the Algerian Sahara region?
Is the Hoggar massif accessible by road or by (rideable) tracks?
Beyond the official recommendations, I’m really looking for your firsthand experiences. Thanks so much for your answers, and sorry if my questions are a bit newbie!
Ride safe! ✌️ Didier

Hello everyone! ✌️
I just realized I’ve been registered on VoyageForum since... March 28, 2012 😊. Yet, I’ve barely participated until now.
August 1, 2026, will mark a somewhat special milestone: 5 years on the road.
We left Switzerland on August 1, 2021 with a simple idea: let chance decide our direction. We placed a bottle of wine on a world map, spun it... and it chose our first destination.
A year later, when we arrived in Morocco, we faced a new choice: continue toward Africa or head to Asia. This time, a tarot card game made the decision. Since then, we’ve tried to keep this journey as open to the unexpected as possible.
Today, that adds up to about 120,000 km, 46 countries, and over 1,800 days on the road—mostly by motorcycle, but also by sailboat, train, bus, hitchhiking, or on foot when adventure calls.
Our guiding thread isn’t just the motorcycle, but service exchanges. Instead of simply passing through countries, we try to stop regularly to lend a hand to the people we meet. So far, that’s about 600 days of volunteering.
Over the years, we’ve:
renovated a house in Croatia made earth bricks in the Moroccan desert helped sail a boat through the Greek islands looked after houses, dogs, horses, a camel... and lots of other animals worked at a street art festival in Morocco created videos for local associations and projects worked the grape harvest on the Tibetan plateau been accredited as "media" for the World Nomad Games in Central Asia
Some of the moments that have stuck with us the most include six months in China, a night spent on the Great Wall, the Pamir Highway, the Silk Road, three months in Taiwan, and the incredible encounters in the mountains of Central Asia.
We travel on Falkor, our lucky dragon—a 2014 BMW F800GS that’s been with us since the start and is starting to have some great stories of its own.
While we share our adventure on Instagram, Polarsteps, and YouTube, that’s not why we’re here. The forum’s rules about promotion are clear, and I totally get them. If I’m finally taking the time to write, it’s mostly because after five years on the road, I thought our experience might be useful to other travelers.
Happy to chat about:
preparing for a long motorcycle trip visas and borders the Silk Road and Central Asia riding in China (with or without a motorcycle) volunteering and service exchanges while traveling gear, daily life on the road... or just the unexpected moments that make long-term travel so special
Looking forward to swapping stories and hearing about your adventures too! 😊 Greetings from Thailand, and happy to chat! ✌️

Hello, I’m retired and planning a roughly 3-week motorcycle trip (1200gs). The dates aren’t set in stone yet, and everything’s open to discussion—I’m pretty flexible with the planning.
Hi there,
I’d like to ride from Mahajanga to Morondava, sticking as close to the coast as possible—using roads and tracks—in September 2026. If you’ve got any suggestions, let me know! 😉

Hi everyone,
I’m planning a motorcycle road trip to Armenia and Georgia in September 2026 or May 2027. I’m looking for one or more riders (male or female) who’d like to explore these countries with me.
Along the way, we’ll visit Cappadocia, the capitals Yerevan, Tbilisi, Sofia, Skopje, and other cities—we can finalize the route and roadbook later.
This trip requires experience with long motorcycle journeys, as we’ll cover around 7,000 km over 5 or 6 weeks (or more, depending on sightseeing and time spent).
I don’t expect dozens of applicants, since motorcycle riders are few and far between on this forum, but I’m putting this out there anyway.
See you soon

Hi, I’d like to take a 15-day "break" to get away from the surrounding hustle and bustle.
Why not explore the Peloponnese!
I’m not particularly drawn to museums, ruins, or monuments.
I want to experience local life—small villages, seaside spots, beaches, and the interior if the landscapes are extraordinary.
Ideally, coming from Athens, I’d take a bus or train to get as close as possible to a starting point, then rent a scooter (125cc) to explore by taking secondary roads or even coastal paths. I’d stay in 2-3 places for a few days each to discover their surroundings.
Do a loop.
What do you think would be the ideal itinerary?
From Athens, the best option would be to take either a flight or a bus to Kalamata. Rent a scooter and head either west or east. Is there a tertiary road (very lightly trafficked) or a path where I can ride slowly, take it easy, and enjoy the scenery without being bothered by traffic? I’d like to go all the way to Monemvasia, still hugging the coast. I need to find a way to avoid returning to Kalamata to drop off the scooter and catch a flight—maybe a small town where the train stops so I can head back to Athens.
Thanks in advance for your tips.
Hi!
I want to rent an off-road style motorcycle to get around the coast during my trip to Ecuador. I’m only finding options in Quito. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Hi there,
I’m planning a sidecar trip to South America for 4 or 5 months at the end of this year.
I’m looking for info on shipping my vehicle by sea—possibly to Uruguay or another destination, as I haven’t finalized anything yet.
How do you get visas for the countries I’ll be crossing: Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, and Chile? Are they e-Visas, obtained at the border, or through embassies?
Where can I get vehicle insurance?
Lastly, if any bikers want to join us (my partner and me), we’re open to that possibility too.

Hi, I’m planning to head to Morocco in early May on my 1200 RT. I’ll be leaving from Dax to Kenitra—happy to ride together if anyone’s up for it!
Hey everyone,
I’ve got 15 days off in June and I’m pretty undecided about where to go for a motorcycle road trip. Two strong desires are pulling me in different directions: Corsica or Norway.
Corsica has been a dream of mine for a long time: legendary roads, stunning landscapes, a unique vibe, and the perfect mix of sea and mountains. At the same time, I’m wondering if 2 weeks might be *too much* for Corsica—risking feeling like I’ve seen it all too quickly, especially on a bike. Since I also have an extra week free in May, I could use that specifically for Corsica. Maybe splitting it into two trips would make more sense? If so, which routes or regions would be the most interesting to plan for a 7-day trip?
On the other hand, Norway is *super* appealing. The landscapes look incredible, totally different from anything I’ve experienced, and it’d be a real “wow” trip. I know 15 days is still short for such a vast country. Getting all the way to the North Cape seems pretty much impossible in that time, but I’m curious about what realistic routes could be planned.
So I’m wondering: Is it better to save Norway for next year, take 3 weeks off, and do it *properly*? Or are 15 days enough for a first amazing taste of the country?
I’d love to hear about your experiences—whether it’s Corsica (ideal duration, routes) or Norway (what’s realistic in 2 weeks on a bike). Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Hello,
I'm thinking of buying a used small motorcycle to travel around the country for a month and a half.
I've done this in other countries without putting the registration in my name—is that possible in Guinea given the apparently frequent checks, or do I have to go through the paperwork?
Thanks.
Hello,
My dream is to ride Route 66 by motorcycle. I have a disability—while I’m not in a wheelchair, my walking mobility is reduced.
The ideal scenario would be to have a motorcycle driver and ride as their passenger on an organized trip.
Are there any guides or services like this offered by travel agencies?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Hello,
I’ve got a plan with a friend to go on a motorcycle road trip in 2028 or 2029, starting in Santiago de Chile and ending in Ushuaia, for about a month.
Has anyone done a trip like this before, and what’s the best time of year?
I’ve heard there can be quite a bit of wind depending on the season.
Thanks for any tips!
Cheers,

I'm seriously considering heading to Nepal to do some nice motorcycle loops... my goal is also to do the Kailash Yatra round trip from Kathmandu, in a small group with a guide, in May '26... but here's the thing—I'm solo! So if you're up for sharing a similar adventure, hit me up... Cheers, Frankoys
It's all in the title: I'm heading to Krabi soon and want to rent a scooter for a few weeks, but after reading comments about all kinds of scams, I'm reaching out to ask where and how (read: *the right way*) to rent one.
Thanks for your tips and advice.
Hello everyone! Like every year, a winter migration is on the horizon (revised plan): this time, it’ll be Dakar, or even Abidjan, via Morocco, Mauritania, and Senegal.
Looking for an experienced motorcyclist or pillion rider—small build preferred—on a GSA 1250 with a comfy seat and luggage setup, available from early November to late December 2025. I’d like to plan the trip together (important to me) to make sure we’re on the same wavelength.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Hi everyone...
Looking for travel companions to ride from France to Senegal by motorcycle.
I’m Paul, 37, and I’ve already done a bit of riding in Morocco.
For now, I’m solo, riding a 1998 SUZUKI DR 650 with some basic gear to keep things smooth. I’ll have a tent so we can do a few nights under the stars. We’ll need to coordinate departure dates—"ideally in November."
I’m currently checking out routes to take. Any tips would be welcome! :)
Have a great day, everyone!!!!!

Hi there!
I’m heading to Vietnam and Laos with a buddy next week for a month. We’re thinking of renting motorbikes, especially to do the Ha Giang Loop. We don’t have an international license, just our Belgian one. Is that enough? If not, is it risky?
Thanks for the info! !

We’re unsure (still debating) whether we should stay at a hotel on-site and get to the memorial with an Uber (leaving our bikes at the hotel) and book a guided tour, or base ourselves in Kraków and take a tour that includes transport.
One thing’s for sure—we’d prefer a guide in French since we don’t speak English 😅.
Could you share your experiences or advice? I understand we need to book online rather than on-site. Thanks in advance for your replies!

Hi everyone,
I’m planning a road trip in Cuba and was wondering if there are any bike rental places (125/500cc) with reasonable rates—not the Harley rental places!
Thanks for your help. Wave of headlights! !

Hello,
Next October we’re planning to ride the Ruta de la Plata by motorcycle—a historic Spanish route that runs from Gijón to Seville, also known as the N630.
Has anyone here already ridden it?
Unfortunately, I’m worried that parts of the N630 may have disappeared or merged with the A66 motorway, forcing us to ride long stretches of highway, which we’d rather avoid.
Thanks in advance for any tips or details about this route!
Hi there!
I’m currently planning a 9-day route starting from Marrakech with my husband. We land on the morning of June 13th—so soon! 😊
And we’re flying back to France on June 21st at 9 PM!
We’ve rented two Royal Enfield 450s.
This is our first motorcycle trip in Morocco. I got my license two years ago with the dream of taking this kind of trip, and here we are! ✌️😍
In France, we usually ride between 300 to 400 km per day on roadsters. We’re not used to off-road tracks, so we’re looking for easy ones 😅—especially for me 😅.
For Morocco, I’ve planned stages of 200 to 300 km per day. Here’s the idea: Day 1 (departure at noon): Marrakech - Tizi n Test - Tafingoult (165 km - 4h15) Day 2: Tafingoult - Amzarkou - Telouet (200 km - 4h34) Day 3: Telouet - Ait Benhaddou - Ouarzazate - Boumalne (200 km - 3h30) (+ Vallée des Roses maybe) Day 4: Boumalne - Dades Gorges - Agoudal - Todra Gorges - Tinghir - Goulmima (291 km - 6h) Day 5: Goulmima - Midelt - Cirque Jaffar - Agoudim (280 km - 4h45) Day 6: Agoudim - Imilchil - Aghbala - El Ksiba (280 km - 4h45) Day 7: El Ksiba - La Cathédrale - Zaouiat Ahansal (212 km - 4h20) Day 8: Ahansal - Ouzoud Waterfalls via R 302 (188 km - 4h22) Day 9: Ouzoud - Marrakech (160 km - 2h43) End of the trip 😮.
What do you think?
We haven’t booked any hotels—is that a problem? We were thinking of deciding day by day based on our progress.
Can we take our helmets with us in the cabin, or should we pack them in the checked luggage surrounded by clothes to avoid damage?
I’d love any tips! 😊 Thanks!
