Fall in the Smokies
Basecamp Tour
(Tennessee - North Carolina)
October 18-22, 2025
(5 days / 4 nights)
What is this tour about?
Our “Fall in the Smokies” Basecamp Tour will fill your senses with the wonders of Autumn. Ride some of the most famous roads in America (Cherohala Skyway, Tail of the Dragon, Great Smoky Mountains Loop, Blue Ridge Parkway) while the trees all around you are covered in a thousand shades of yellows and reds.
Our Basecamp will be right in the forests that make the Smoky Mountains National Park world famous. Every day we will explore the area on our motorcycles, coming back to our luxurious safari style tents for the night.
The tour will be on pavement only, with days of approximately 90-150 miles of riding. A detailed itinerary will be sent in advance to all participants.
Who is this tour for?
This tour is for the motorcyclist who enjoys mountain technical roads as much as majestic landscapes. This will not be a tour about speed (our tours never are), but about taking in the beauty and the history surrounding us.
You can join this tour on your motorcycle, or you can rent one of ours. We can also arrange transportation of your motorcycle.
