Tour Description
AMERICA from a Different View
An incredible Harley-Davidson® drive across the American West, experiencing the splendid sceneries of;
The Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Sierra Nevada and The Indian territories of The Navajo.
Let us not forget Death Valley, Route 66 and one of the most beautiful roads in the world, the Pacific Coast highway.
3,500km of mountains and desert highlighted with the charm of San Francisco, the diversity of Los Angeles and the decadence and dazzle of Las Vegas.
We wish to share with you our passion, to help you discover America by the most authentic and original style.
Across the Wild West by bike, each moment is a true experience!
Amidst the wind, with the warmth of the sun on your face, you exist in harmony with nature. Far from being only a spectator of the westerns of your youth, you become a part of the wonderful surroundings.
