"H-C Travel is the longest established international motorcycle tour operator in the UK (founded in 1994). and all of our holidays are covered legally and financially by our TTA membership and ATOL license. All our tours are also licensed or approved in the destination country. Our motorcycles are locally registered and insured, and if you are on a guided tour with us, our guides own the motorcycles, they aren’t hired or borrowed. Our guides are all experienced, and all live locally, so they really do know the area, the roads, the people, and the sights - to help you get the most out of your holiday. And as a professional travel company, we of course arrange flights and travel insurance and can offer you lots more besides – it’s your holiday, so let us do the work for you."
