Simonweir Recensioni 

We have been on two bespoke tours by Simon Weir and have really enjoyed both of them as rider and pillion. First tour was the French alps in 2023. Second tour was Portugal, Picos mountains and northern Spain this year 2026. Simon's tours are an excellent way to take the time out of all the planning of a long holiday. Daily planned routes with suggested stops using the gpx files, pdf document and highlighted maps. On stunning roads that sometimes you would not even think of taking. We highly recommend his services and will be using them again.

What can I say that hasn’t been said! He is the best!!

I've used Simon's books for many years to plan tours and they are excellent.
However, I wanted to plan a long tour for 3-4 weeks in France and Spain with my wife and asked Simon to help with this more complicated trip.
After giving him rough dates and an idea of the areas we were interested in, Simon came up with a rough plan that we could tweak. He then supplied us with the final schedule with digital tour notes, gpx files and paper tour notes in the post. The attention to detail is fantastic.
We had an epic trip over 3,500 miles taking in superb roads and views throughout the Pyrenees and Alps with great places to stay. He even sent us an emergency detour route whilst we were away due to an unexpected pass closure.
Simon's knowledge and level of service cannot be questioned and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him when planning a tour.

As a group we have done 5 tours with Simon, all of them have been well organised with great routes, Simon has become a friend now, purely because of the tours recommendations, tips, and what to see on the tours.back up support before and during trips .

Have used Simon many times to arrange our bike tours and it’s been great from
Start to finish! first class service! Totally recommend!

Simon has been planning our Europe bike tours for years. Every year his routes just get better and better. His knowledge and attention to detail is incredible. Don’t waste your time trying to plan your motorcycle trips, just leave it to the pro you won’t be disappointed. Thanks again Simon for all the great memories you’ve helped us create. Cheers Karl

had a trip to Corsica with simon and its was beautifully planned with amazing roads, fuel and coffee stops already booked for another tour next year

If you are looking for support on a day ride, full holiday route and want the most comprehensive package, Simon is your man!

We entrusted Simon putting x2 bespoke touring packages together for a group of us earlier this year. One for the Pyranees and one for navigating from Spain to Austria. We were very specific about our needs and desires. Communication was fantastic, professional and right on point.

When I say comprehensive, I mean it. Electronic documents were proffesionally done, backed up with paper maps, and if I'm honest, more than we expected for the price.

We had the most wonderfull tour and it took a lot of the 'am I missing the best bits' guess work out of worries we may have had.

We will use Simon again and would recommend his services 100% to anyone considering a tour in unfamilar territories, or to seek out the hidden gems you may other wise just whizz past.

Fantastic!

Simon provided routes for a recent trip to the French Alps. The scenery was magnificent and the roads an absolute delight to ride on. Overall a fantastic trip which surpassed my expectations. I thoroughly recommend using Simon, his knowledge and package provided is exceptional.

Used Simon twice to plot individual routes through France. Excellent routes included all stops, paper map and obviously GPX files. Bought Simon’s European touring book and used it this year for a trip across the Pyrenees.
Would highly recommended Simon’s route planning and books. UK book is on my Christmas list.

I've used Simons vast expertise and knowledge for two separate tours (a bespoke tour dealing with the Picos, the Pyrenees and Western France and the second tour was Simons Croatian Tour).
I can strongly recommend the complete tour packs, including the maps, tour notes and tank bag notes. The level of accuracy and detail that Simon puts into these packs is so worth the money for peace of mind and a totally stress-free travelling adventure. It's not only getting access to the best routes out there but it is the hidden gems, the local knowledge, and the practicalities of fuel, food and accomodation. Definately money very well spent and I'll be doing it again.

The leader of the pack!

Simon is a great tour leader, finding the best roads, great places to stop for refreshments and food, and quality hotels with safe parking. It doesn’t seem to matter where you go with Simon he always has local knowledge!

Keep up the good work…. Look forward to following you on a tour soon 🙂.

My friend and I have used three of Simon's routes now for Europe trips, and they've all been superb. The most recent, Secret France was a particular surprise and we rode on some fantastic roads in some excellent areas. Simon's routes take all the hassle out of organising a big European trip and his hotel recommendations are always spot on from a location and bike security perspective.

We will be doing another Weir route next year without a doubt.

I have used Simon to plan five tours around Europe, taking in the Alps, Pyrenees, Northern Spain and Portugal. His knowledge of great biking roads is second to none, combine this the detail that is provided, recommended stops, hotels etc, you will not go wrong.

Simon is the ultimate motorcycle-route-guru! He already assisted us in preparing custom trips to Portugal, France and the US and all were absolutely amazing and perfectly put together.

I have always wanted to tour Europe on a motorbike but never had the confidence to go; where is it safe to stay? How far can I travel in a day? How do I find rest stops with good food and clean toilets? How can I minimise the risk of my motorbike being stolen overnight? Thankfully Simon provides great help and advice, taking time to understand what I want to see, what mountain roads I might be too afraid to attempt and how do I find safe hotels. He provides full routes, detailed maps, tips and tricks on touring in the EU and recommends known hotels that either he or a trusted source has used. This has enabled me to tour all through Spain and Portugal right down to Faro, a long tour of France, and this year a massive trip taking in France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, andthe Czech Republic. Highly recommended.

Simon provides amazing motorcycle tours tailored to your specific needs. You say where you want to go, how long in the saddle per day, the split between motorway / A&B roads, how adventurous a route and how long you have, and he provides amazingly detailed routes with Michelin maps, GPX files for your sat nav with fuel and coffee stops. He also recommends at least 2 bike safe hotels at each overnight stop. I've done a 14 day tour of the Picos in Spain (2,200 miles). A 20 day tour of France and Italy (3,900 miles), and 17 days in and around the French Alps 2,650 miles. I can only put te most recent date in, but I have been using Simon since 2020.

Nothing but praise for Simon, we have been using his tours for several years now and have never been disapointed.
It takes all the stress out of planning a trip as he recomends hotels, and each day is planned for you with great roads, lunch/coffee stops and even when to fill up with fuel. Highly recomended
Thanks Simon

I have been on several ChickenStrip tours with Simon and I have bought GPX files for a trip I did with my friend.
Simon knows his stuff and the level of detail his tour notes have is second to none. Routes, coffee stops, where to fuel and hotel recommendations are all in there.
Well worth it.

A fantastic way to tour maximum number is 15 people so you get a personal experience. Simon and Bruce make it a fantastic trip were ever you go I’m lucky enough to of been on quite a few trips & I’ve enjoyed everyone
