Turkey is rightly one of the most popular travel destinations in the Mediterranean Area.
However, most tourists spend your their vacation almost exclusively between the beach and hotel castle. They probably do not even know what they're missing, because Turkey is an absolute bikers dreamland with endless trails and numerous scenic and cultural highlights. I have traveled the country in 1980 for the first time as part of a circumnavigation of the Mediterranean for almost 4 months and since then I came back regularly to this fascinating country between Europe and Asia. In 1986 I had the luck to win the overall ranking of the Euphrates Rally, starting near Stuttgart, a total of 13000km up to the Iranian border and back. Since 2011, we organize in close cooperation with BMW, Turkey a motorcycle tour program, which will be expanded steadily over the next years.
