Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Do I need a motorcycle licence to ride?

Yes. Every rider needs an unrestricted Category A or A2 motorcycle licence. With an A2 licence, you ride our KTM 250 Freeride, with approximately 22 horsepower. Tell us your licence category when you enquire so we can match you to the right bike.

If your licence was issued abroad, check the current rules for driving in Portugal and whether you need an International Driving Permit.

What do I need to bring?

  • Valid travel documents: check the current entry requirements for Portugal for your nationality.
  • Your motorcycle licence: unrestricted Category A or A2, plus any additional permit required for your licence.
  • Long boot socks and base layers: comfortable clothing to wear under the protective gear.
  • Suitable travel insurance: we strongly recommend cover that explicitly includes off-road motorcycling, medical treatment and repatriation. Confirm the activity and bike with your insurer.
  • Your EHIC or GHIC, if eligible: bring a valid card where applicable. It does not replace travel insurance.

We provide the riding kit: helmet, boots, armour, jersey, trousers and gloves. You are welcome to bring your own gear.

Do you provide a pickup service?

Packages with accommodation include transfers between Faro airport and our base in Rasmalho from 08:00 to 22:00. A surcharge applies outside these hours.

For a single-day ride or a different pickup location, ask us about arrangements and any additional cost before booking.

How do payments work? Can I pay in GBP?

Our prices and invoices are in euros.

Single-day rides: pay the full amount in cash in euros on arrival. No deposit is required.

Multi-day packages: pay 35% at booking and the remaining 65% before the tour, using the payment instructions in your booking confirmation.

If you want to pay from a GBP account or need another payment arrangement, contact us first. Any currency conversion and fees depend on the agreed payment method and your payment provider.

Do you ride all year round?

We ride hard from September through June. July and August with less riding – way too hot and high wildfire risk, plus the trails need a breather. Rest of the year, we’re rolling.

Are your tours set on fixed days or dates?
No fixed schedule here. You tell us when you want to ride, and we’ll do our best to make it happen. Peak months (October–December and February–May) book up fast, so the earlier you shout, the better your odds. Always double-check with us before booking flights—just to be safe.
Can I bring a non-rider(s) along?
Absolutely. Non-riders are welcome at the house—relax by the pool, explore the area, or just take it easy while you hit the trails. Let us know and we’ll sort accommodation and a quote for them.
