Emilia-Romagna is the land of slow food and fast cars. There's a culture of craftsmanship that's infused into everything they produce. From the kitchen to the factory floor, they believe in doing things right. 

 

The northern Italian region of Emilia-Romagna is known as the 'breadbasket of Italy'. Their crumbly, delicious Parmigiano Reggiano cheese is world famous. Aged in wooden barrels for decades, balsamic vinegar of Modena is otherworldly. Thin, silky Prosciutto di Parma, dry-cured ham, melts on your tongue. This region is heaven on earth for foodies. 24 Michelin-starred restaurants were listed in Emilia-Romagna in 2025. 

 

Passion for excellence isn't limited to food here. There's a place in the heart of Emilia-Romagna where speed and style are elevated to an art-form. Motoring legends like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Ducati, Maserati and Pagani were born here. Lovers of cars and motorcycles can visit the factories, museums, and private collections. All of this magic happens in the compact area of Motor Valley. Also, the famous Imola grand prix circuit is right here. And not far away are the Monza, Mugello, and Misano grand prix circuits. This is Italy for Motorheads! 

 

Emilia-Romagna isn't tourist-trap Italy. It has culture and history without the huge crowds. Parma has a rich operatic history. Ravenna is famous for its Byzantine mosaics. Bologna has incredible medieval towers and the oldest university in Europe. 

 

I have spent a lot of time in Emilia-Romagna.  It's one of my favorite regions of Italy, and I love helping people experience it.

Amazing Scenic Motorcycle Trip Through Italy
Reviewed By AnnaBanana - SLC, UT | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Trip was incredible! Bryan was fantastic to work with and made the travel plans so easy on our end. Showed up in Italy our Motorcycles were all ready to go, routes all planned out and hotels booked! Bryan was very knowledgeable about all the areas we traveled too and had many suggestions of places to check out and things to see. There is something to be said about booking a trip, showing up and having an amazing time! Will definitely be booking another Motorcycle trip again with Bryan! I highly recommend, not to mention the scenery was absolutely amazing on a Motorcycle, best way to experience Italy!

One of, if not the best trip I’ve ever taken.
Reviewed By Pigpen - Bismarck, North Dakota | Traveled to Italy | Europe
Simply fantastic trip. Brian plans and organizes all the details. Hotels were fabulous, motorcycle routes were amazing, food was awesome. Bike rentals were great. Despite all the planning, there is still a lot of flexibility. Brian is knowledgeable about Italy having g spent a lot of time there. Would definitely recommend this trip for anyone wanting to ride through Italy and the Dolomites. Brian is a fantastic planner and guide. Can’t say enough about how amazing this trip was. Will go back and do it again

Alps by Motorad
Reviewed By Buddymack - UT | Traveled to Italy | Europe
I have been to Europe many times. I’ve traveled through Italy and France and Spain, but never like this. Cruising and cutting and weaving through the high alpine roads of Italy, Austria, Germany, and Switzerland on a Ducati multi V4 was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had! Seriously mind blowing. The majesty and serenity of the alps, the beauty of the orchards and vineyards, and the well manicured alpine farms and villages for hours, over some of the most pristine roads that I’ve ever ridden. The spa/hotel that we came back to each night in Ortisei is a destination in itself. Amazing food. Incredible scenery. Exceeded all my expectations. This ride and week in the Alps will forever be the new benchmark that I will unfortunately compare any other trip I do to anywhere in the future. Bryan is also very well versed in European culture and Italy specifically, having lived there and visited too many times to number. He was an amazing host and a great new friend, and prepared every needful thing. I want to do it again every year!!
