It depends on the country: a passport valid for at least 6 months after your return (or an ID card within the EU), a visa (often electronic) and — for drivers and riders — an International Driving Permit. The list is always in the description of each expedition.

Yes. We explain how to apply for an e-visa, and we arrange special permits ourselves (e.g. the GBAO permit in Tajikistan or permits in Pakistan).

Outside the EU, usually yes — it is issued by your local licensing authority, costs little and is ready within a few days.

Not always. Every expedition has a difficulty level on a 1–5 scale. On levels 1–2 a standard licence is enough, and we teach you to drive on sand or gravel on the spot.

Breakfast, a short briefing, 4–7 hours on the road with stops for sightseeing, coffee and photos. Dinner together in the evening. On expedition-level trips the days can be longer.

There is always a plan B: the support vehicle, a tarmac alternative or a rest day. Nobody is left alone.

On European expeditions (e.g. Romania, the Alps) yes. On long-haul expeditions we use the organiser’s motorcycles or local rental fleets.

Off-road 4x4s with four-wheel drive and low range, prepared for the conditions of each route. Models depend on the country.

Yes — in a 4x4 or as a motorcycle pillion (where possible). Passengers have their own option and price.

Travel insurance covering medical and rescue costs, including riding or driving and — where relevant — high altitude. We help you choose a policy.

We know the routes from our own trips, work with local teams, keep the group in radio contact and carry a first-aid kit and a support vehicle. We follow official travel advice continuously.

It depends on the expedition — we send a checklist before departure. Always: layers of clothing (desert nights can be cold), a head torch, sunscreen, a power bank and copies of your documents.

On most routes your main luggage travels in the support vehicle and you only carry a day bag on the bike.

Yes — a helmet, jacket, trousers, gloves and boots with protectors. If you don’t have them, we’ll tell you where to rent.

In hotels, guesthouses, kasbahs, mountain lodges and — on some expeditions — desert camps. Usually in twin rooms.

On request, for a supplement (if available).

Breakfast is usually included, and dinners are often shared in local places. We cater for special diets — mention them in your booking request.

Choose a date and an option, enter the number of people and send your request from your MotoGadabout account. We confirm your place and the terms — only then do you pay the deposit.

Yes. You can book and pay for the whole group, or choose that everyone pays for themselves.

Usually a deposit after your request is confirmed and the balance before departure. Details are shown with each date and in your account.

The programme is being developed centrally for all MotoGadabout brands. We will announce the rules and any points for expeditions once it launches.
