If legendary dirt bike routes like Baja, Moab, or the TET are on your radar, or already under your belt, then Cape York is Australia’s answer.
This is a true iconic ride through Australia’s last frontier and sought-after destinations for off-road riders. From World Heritage-listed rainforests, aboriginal rock art sites to the northernmost tip of Australia’s mainland, hitting deep creeks, beach runs, and the rugged Old Telegraph Track, we deliver the kind of soul-stirring ride that dirt bike legends are made of.
Welcome to Cape York Motorcycle Adventures, based just 10 minutes from Cairns International Airport, creators of off-road motorcycle tours in Australia since 1990 and still leading the way. Our fully guided dirt bike tours take a maximum group of 15 riders on an all-inclusive tour. GASGAS EC350f motorcycles, riding gear, meals, fuel, accommodation (from bush camping to beachfront cabins), and even your return flights from the Cape are included.
You’ll be met with warm Aussie hospitality, handed the keys to a top-tier dirt bike, and set off on an off-road trip you’ll talk about for the rest of your life. Private charters are also available if you’re travelling with mates, a partner, or want something tailor-made.
Whether you’re travelling solo, with your mates, or bringing the family along, there’s a treasure trove of unforgettable experiences waiting before, during, and after your motorcycle tour:
Many guests bring their families who explore the region by 4WD, scenic flights, or Cape York guided tours while you tackle the tracks.
From the iconic 6-Day Bucket List Tour to the 7-Day Return Luxury Ride with a touch of comfort, the raw and rugged Cairns to Darwin Rally or the blending Fish’n Ride tour, each ride promises epic terrain and unforgettable moments.
