Route 66 Motorcycle Tour

The guided Route 66 journey from Chicago to Los Angeles crosses eight states and three time zones, combining historic roadside towns, classic American diners, neon motels, desert highways and the landscapes of the Grand Canyon. The experience can be arranged as a faster mixed-group tour or as a longer private programme exclusively for SET riders.

15-Day Standard Guided Tour

This 14-night programme includes 13 riding days and covers approximately 4,300 kilometres. It operates as a mixed international group tour, with riders divided into smaller riding groups when participation is high.

The schedule is relatively fast-paced and may require more highway riding to complete the full route. Its main operational advantages are the support vehicle, motorcycle trailer, spare motorcycle, luggage transportation and the included Grand Canyon helicopter flight.

Highlights:

• 15 days / 14 nights
• 13 motorcycle riding days
• Approximately 4,300 kilometres
• Mixed international guided group
• Support vehicle, motorcycle trailer and spare motorcycle
• Daily luggage transportation
• Grand Canyon helicopter flight
• Harley-Davidson model selection, subject to availability

Motorcycle options

The following base models are included in the private-tour rate:

• Harley-Davidson Street Glide
• Harley-Davidson Road Glide
• Harley-Davidson Heritage Softail Classic

As luggage is transported in the support vehicle, top boxes are not required. Motorcycle models are confirmed according to availability at the time of booking.
