FAQs
How difficult is this ride?
This is a MotoDiscovery Road Tour Light Adventure. It’s paved all the way and suitable for any experienced motorcycle touring enthusiast.
How is the weather?
MotoDiscovery travels during what we consider to be optimum riding seasons. The route will include high altiplano desert, tropics and forests, presenting a multitude of climate zones. Temperatures are known to vary widely this time of year. Be prepared for anything. Weather updates with temperature ranges are provided in a MotoDiscovery e-mail Communique right before the tour.
Is it safe?
Know that we consider this a priority. Over 30 million travelers come to Mexico on average each year. While we consider the safety question to be overblown, we still take it seriously and recognize that there are territorial criminal elements engaged in drug related activity in many parts of Mexico. These elements rarely bother tourists as this only brings unnecessary attention to them. It is a strange coexistence. We encourage you to contact us if you have any questions or concerns knowing that at any time, anywhere, we feel your security is compromised , we will be honest and respond accordingly.
What about bringing my own motorcycle?
This tour is ideally suited for bringing your personal motorcycle. MotoDiscovery will inform you of reasonable Mexico insurance options and the required documents for your temporary importation. Rentals may also be available. Contact MotoDiscovery for specifics.
What is a good motorcycle for this tour?
This tour is suitable for any road worthy touring, sport touring or dual-purpose adventure motorcycle. Trikes and sidecars are also acceptable.
Can I ship my motorcycle to you?
If the logistics are not favorable for you to ride to the border for the tour rendezvous, many elect to ship their motorcycle. In this case we recommend San Antonio, Texas where we have a cooperative BMW dealership to receive it. We will assist with additional logistics and provide consultation. Federal Motorcycle Transport is but one operation that specializes in such transport services. Contact us for details.

I don’t speak Spanish.
No worries. We have native speakers on all of our tours in Mexico. Many people in Mexico speak English. We encourage you to learn a few words and we will gladly provide some lessons along the way if you wish!

How are the accommodations?
