Rider Reviews
Welcoming, knowledgeable and professional team. Well organised dynamic rides trying to avoid inclement weather. Fantastic roads, amazing scenery, great groups, good food/coffee stops. Well managed and well organised rides on well maintained bikes.
The girl on the hotel reception !!🤦🏼♂️ thank you to Joy for all she did, showing me places to eat and picking up and dropping off at the airport. Thanks to Martin and Jose for guiding us round the island and showing us some interesting things and also some lovely twisty roads. I met some other motorcycle enthusiasts and made new friends.
Myself, Sam and Paul had an excellent week with Martin, Joy and Jose at Canary Motorcycle Tours. We had five full day rideing on some fantastic roads throughout the whole of the island, hard day's riding but well worth the effort,.Martin has a number of bikes with a good mixture of engine sizes, that are chosen for their ability to cope with the islands difficult and demanding roads and terrain, the bikes are well maintained, the tour guides have a wealth of knowledge about the island and riding. Would totally recommend Canary Motorcycle Tours to anyone thinking visiting the island, not for a new or little experience riders, as some of the roads are very demanding especially the mountain section s. Finally Joy was fantastic, she met us at the airport then took us to our hotel, making sure we were settled in, she was always on hand to help with travel advice about the island and getting home. Thanks guys we had a great time, hope to see you again very soon.
Bikes were excellent for the job, and well maintained. The team from CMT couldn't have been more flexible, patient and helpful. The tour accommodated different levels of riding experience in our group, and we were in safe hands.
The roads, apart from the motorways I don't think there's a 100 yard stretch of straight road
Everything . Fantastic experience.
Martin and joy are very friendly and made our stay very enjoyable and we saw a lot of the island we would have certainly missed. The riding was spectacular at times the roads were like the mini Alps. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for a biking and sun holiday in Gran Canaria
One is well looked after with collection to & from the Island airport. The days rides cover mostly tight twisty roads with well timed stops for refreshments & lunch. Safety equipments is provided, helmets, jackets along with the bikes which are 600 cc & well suited for the island roads. Martin leads the rides which are over 100 miles a day starting at 09:30 returning early evening, the distance may not seem a lot but on those roads riden you will be working the bike hard.
