Motorcycle Tours in Australia: The BucketList Two-Wheel Adventure

If you’ve ever dreamed of riding through a land where rugged outback meets lush rainforest, where endless dirt tracks lead to tropical beaches, and where every day feels like a chapter in a legendary riding story, joining a motorcycle tour in Australia should be at the top of your bucket list.

From the red dust of the outback to the crystal-clear waterfalls of the tropics, Australia offers some of the most epic motorbike trips in the world. And if you want the full experience, the kind that blends remote wilderness, iconic landmarks, and local know-how, nothing beats a guided motorcycle tour from Cairns to Cape York or from Cairns to Darwin.

Why Australia Is a Rider’s Paradise

On a single ride through Far North Queensland and Cape York, you can roll past sweeping savannas, ride deep into UNESCO World Heritage rainforest, cross mighty rivers, and pull up on remote beaches that feel like your own private paradise. This is the only corner of Australia where you’ll see every landscape, except snow.

Adventure bike tours in Australia aren’t just about the destination. They’re about the thrill of the tracks, the camaraderie of the group, and the freedom of being completely off-grid, knowing that everything is taken care of for you.

Cape York: Australia’s Legendary Ride

For off-road riders worldwide, Cape York is the crown jewel of Australian motorcycle tours. It’s the northernmost tip of the continent, wild, remote, and utterly unforgettable.

Riding from Cairns to Cape York takes you through creek crossings, remote bush trails, sandy coastal tracks, and ancient landscapes where few tourists ever go. Each day brings new challenges, whether it’s navigating a legendary section of the Old Telegraph Track or kicking back by a campfire under a million stars.

Why Choose a Guided Motorcycle Tour

Sure, you could tackle the Cape or the Outback solo, but the reality is these regions are remote, unpredictable, and require serious preparation. On our guided motorcycle tours in Australia, we handle the hard stuff so you can focus on the ride.

Here’s what you get:

  • Local expertise: Our crew knows every track, crossing, and hidden gem.
  • Safety first: Fully insured, Remote Area First Aid-certified guides.

More Than a Motorcycle Holiday: perfect for solo, groups, and family

A ride from Cairns to Cape York or Cairns to Darwin isn’t just about riding, it’s a complete motorcycle holiday in Australia. We welcome riders joining with mates, travelling solo, or bringing family along, with a non-rider seat available in the support truck, or the option for family to enjoy Cairns’ reef, rainforest, and adventure activities while you’re out riding. Between rides, you can explore:

  • The Great Barrier Reef: Snorkel or dive one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
  • World Heritage Rainforest: Hike beneath towering trees, spot rare wildlife, and cool off in hidden waterfalls.
  • Scenic Flights: See the reef, rainforest, and outback from the air.
  • Fishing Charters: Chase barramundi, mackerel, or coral trout.
  • 4WD Trips: Take on legendary tracks in a different kind of machine.
  • Cairns Attractions: Ride the Scenic Railway to Kuranda, visit vibrant markets, or relax at beachfront resorts.

Perfect if you want to extend your trip or bring family along for a vacation they’ll never forget.
