Rider Experiences & Independent MotoGreece Reviews

Outstanding trip My wife and I experienced the 10 day self guided tour of Central/Northwest Greece. Everything went like clockwork. John arranged for our airport pickup and we arrived at his shop with our riding gear. Our bike was there prepped and ready to go. After loaded the side cases and completing a little paperwork, John gave us a very comprehensive briefing, provided a GPS with routes and alternates, a guide book with much useful and detailed information, and printed map pages for each day. With that we were on our way. Ten fabulous days. The routes were clearly put together by someone who loves “motorcycle roads” and the lodging was outstanding. The guide book provided a great deal of useful information suggesting when and where to fuel up and where to eat and local sites to visit. Every suggestion we followed was a winner. We’ve taken self-guided, guided, rent and ride and this was one of the best. I highly recommend and have recommended to my NorCal BMW Club members. I’m curious about some of the other areas and suspect we’ll use MotoGreece again. Incidentally, I’ve never felt compelled to rate a tour company before as a few promised more than they delivered. MotoGreece actually exceeded our expectations.

November 14 day self guided. Outstanding! What I expected and more, Moto Greece put together a stress free and complete package. The communication and commitment to the tour both pre ride briefing and at completion is evident of the time these guys put into all aspects , the route supported by both a map and TomTom as well as the pre booked accommodation every where I went the Hotel was expecting me. I did this self guided 14 days throughout the Peloponese at the end of the season I lucked out with the weather the guys know their package with accurate distance timings so you don’t need to worry about about pushing you are supplied with a printed guide for each day of the tour, so if you’re thinking f Greece it is well worth doing and to do it with Moto Greece was an absolute pleasure.

Central & Northwest Greece Self-Guided Tour We did the (slightly modified) 10 day Self-Guided Central & Northwest Greece tour - what a beautiful and overlooked part of the country. The scenery is stunning, made even more so by the autumn colours of October.John & John from MotoGreece have put together a superb package - fantastic roads, great accommodation and a detailed road book providing loads of information regarding the route.Two couples, we hired 2 x GS1300s - almost brand new with full luggage and pre-loaded TomTom GPS units.Altogether a fantastic trip - thanks MotoGreece!

Excellent route, excellent bike, Excellent accomodations, excellent hosts, excellent weather. This was our 7th self-guided trip to different parts of the world and is the best so far. Rob Tomchick - Tobermory, Ontario, Canada.

Fabulous self guided tour We did a self guided 10 days trip with Motogreece and it was a remarkable wonderful journey. We experienced the real life of Greece in small villages deep in the mountains. John did an excellent job mapped out an excellent motorcycle route for 10 fabulous days. My husband and I could not stop talking about how great this trip was. We are considering returning to Greece and ride other part of Greece that John put together. Highly recommend this company without any reservations.

Fantabulous We had one of the best trips we have ever taken! My wife and I took the 19 day self tour and it was arranged perfectly. We were on a 750GS and it was a great size for the small roads and villages. The hotels we stayed at were a perfect match for us. The research that went into coming up with the routes and accommodations was obviously a monumental task and John and John did a great job.

We were 4 guys on a moto trip to Greece. John arranged our itinerary and stay for a 10 day ride. We rented the bikes for a self guided tour. It was a fantastic trip. We were provided late model BMW bikes at a competitive rate. The hotels were nice. Getting in and out of Athens was a little busy, but otherwise one of the best tours I have been on in Europe. Highly recommend!! You should go there!

Awesome 15-day two-up mainland Greece tour Kimmy and I did a two-up 15 day self guided tour of everything west of Athens. An amazing trip that ranged from beaches to quaint villages to towering mountain passes. The route John suggested was phenomenal, with many secondary roads that let us really see the Greek countryside. There is history around every turn, the people are wonderful, and the food is fantastic and inexpensive. The hotels John booked for us were great. We rented an almost new BMW 1250 GS which worked great for the two of us and our luggage. Greece is the most consistently beautiful country either of us has ever traveled in! We are planning to do this again!

We did the 11 day Northwest and Pelion self guided tour in July 2025. Our experience was seamless and exceeded all our expectations. Each day we followed the routes which were carefully planned by John and we also had the freedom to explore our own detours as well. Every night we were greeted at beautiful accommodation. The bike was practically new and performed perfectly. We would strongly recommend MotoGreece without hesitation.

We have travel the world , dealing with multiple Motorcycle rentals companies , Ireland, Equador, Spain , South Africa which was my favorite, New Zealand , UK , France , Germany , Austria, Switzerland and now after a 9 day ride I Greece surpass all my expectation and my number 1 favorite ride now , the mountains , the passes , ocean coast line , the hotel accommodations , curves , switchbacks are endless , beautiful country side , people were very welcoming , John you both have an amazing business, great bikes and one minor incident which was our fault and you treated us fairly making us wanting to return once again in the near future . Thank you again for this unforgettable journey Marc Fortier Northern Ontario Canada

Great Adventure in The Peloponnese Just returned from our first self-guided tour with Motogreece in the Peloponnese. John and John at Motogreece exceeded our expectations - they were friendly, knowledgeable and very patient with all our questions at the pre- tour meeting!The BMW F800 supplied with a 3 box set was practically brand new, handled faultlessly and the ideal bike for the tour. The pre-set routes preset by John and John in the satsav are amazing with breathtaking views all the way. The lovely boutique hotels were in great locations and motorcycle friendly.We would highly recommend Motogreece - definitely First Class all the way.

Mark & I from New Zealand took a chance and contacted John at MotoGreece to enquire about him setting up the 19 day tour for us last year, and he couldn’t have been more helpful. We did this in June just gone on our own and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The roads he set on the TomTom were awesome, Mark enjoyed the Baros Pass as it was a constant flow left to right. The places he arrange for us to stay were a delight, the BMW was a dream to ride two up, the scenery exceptional. The roads were very different from NZ with lots of corners and challenges, we even found time to do the Touristy things. We had A and B routes , but would recommend the A for confident riders. We were given a booklet that covered day to day riding with advice and places to see, which we followed and enjoyed even when you returned on same road you had a different perspective. I found the booklet great to write my own day to day notes in so we could reflect on them when we got home to reminisce on such a great adventure that was so much fun and lots of photos stored away. Would I recommend it - hell yes, go for it you won’t regret it.

I’ve rented bikes all over the world, and this 10-day self-guided central & northern Greece tour was exceptional. The folks at MotoGreece provide excellent bikes, navigation, accommodations and suggestions.

Unforgettable Trip in Greece Unforgettable Ride In Greece Our motorcycle trip through the Peloponnese and Northwest Greece was fantastic. Winding roads, charming villages and amazing landscapes made our trip unforgettable. We did the 16 day self guided tour. John planned our trip and bikes were in great shape with a fully loaded GPS with multiple route options and rest day rides. Great itinerary with all the historic sites marked with time to explore. Unique and conveniently located hotels were outstanding. We were impressed with John’s knowledge and the map books provided with stops and tips for each stop. Food recommendations were incredible (make sure to check them out). Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

Highly recommended Highly professional outfit! I’ve rented bikes in multiple countries, and MotoGreece was one of the best. Helpful staff and quality bikes. Highly recommended and would definitely use them again. All the positive reviews online helped me choose and they were spot-on.

Great company. Great bike. Great ride. Motogreece is John and John. These two owners made the experience excellent from beginning to end.Advance preparation - In the lead up to the trip, they were prompt in their replies, flexible in offering routes, made lodging suggestions that best fit our needs, and were overall efficient in all aspects of the reservation.Their shop and bikes - Upon arrival, it was obvious they run a tight ship and maintain their bikes to the highest standard. Our 2025 R1300GS was prepped and ready to go.The logistics - The route planning was excellent. They provided a Tom Tom, with all routes, lodging, fuel, etc clearly marked. And, for the directionally challenged, they included a number of waypoints along each designated route. In addition, they provided a packet that explained each day’s route, the mileage, time, fuel and food options, route difficulty, etc.The roads - Once you clear Athens and the requisite traffic, the roads empty out and are a joy. Many of the suggested routes had zero traffic. We rode on everything from smooth pavement, to “better pay attention” pavement, to one 10 mile section of challenging gravel and switchbacks. All roads were all great in their own way.The lodging - We requested upgraded lodging where available, and they did not disappoint. Every place fit our needs quite well, with nice accommodations and a good restaurant.The turn in - We dropped the bike off at the scheduled time, and the check-in was a snap. They even arranged a friend to take us to our airport hotel due to a taxi driver strike that had started the previous day.Conclusion - If you are intending to come to Greece for a motorcycle holiday, you could do no better than Motogreece. John and John will take great care of you.

Excellent Self-Guided Motorbiking around Greece with Motogreece Outstanding experience with our self-guided 11-day tour across Athens and Pelion - riding two up. We were impressed with the quality of the motorbike; 2025-1300GS which ran extremely well for the entire 11-days and zero issues. The roads in Greece are in great physical shape and while we have traveled to 67 Countries (and counting), and most by motorbike; Greece offered the most curved roads and hairpin turns than any other country we’ve traveled in. I was honestly surprised but pleasantly pleased! Motogreece, AKA: John & John assembled a great 11-day itinerary with all topnotch hotels reserved for our self-guided tour. Detailed printed booklet and TomTom provide day by day instructions for road navigation, coffee stops, gas stations, highlights of things to do & see and restaurant recommendations. Motorbiking around Greece is a great way to see the Country, visit the many historical sites and experience the culture and history of historical Greece. We highly recommend MotoGreece if you’re planning a motorbike excursion. They offer tours from 2-16 day duration and will provide you with an outstanding experience for a very fair, reasonable, all inclusive price for the motorbike and lodging.

Motorcycle riding bucket list; Greece Our experience of doing the Self-guided 16-day Peloponnese & Central-Northwest tour with friends, in May 2024 booked through MotoGreece, was beyond expectations. From our first email contact to our debriefing at the end of the 16 days, communications and service were excellent. It is clear that the partners John and John, who manage the company, are passionate about motorcycles and making sure their customers have the best riding experiences. The bikes, two BMW 1250 GS's and a BMW F 750 GS were in great shape. The pre-loaded routes took us to places we would never have found by ourselves; seaside towns, mountain routes, ancient sites. Almost every day, the scenery was breathtaking. Accommodations were first class. We appreciated that we stayed in most places for two nights giving the option and alternative routes to explore the area or take a day off and relax. The booklet with maps, mileage breakdown and a lot of other extremely useful information including recommendations for restaurants and interesting places to visit, was a bonus. Greece is definitely a place to add to a motorcycle riding bucket list. In my opinion (I ride pillion) this is the way to explore Greece. And I would highly recommend booking through MotoGreece in Athens.
