NE FL ADV and Motorcycle Tours: What we're all about.

It started out as a simple idea created during a conversation with my wife while we were walking the dogs one evening.

We've been doing all of this exploring, mapping, and tracking of Jacksonville and it's surrounding areas and we usually prefer to eat at local establishments rather than big chain restaurants, so why not show people around in person but do it in a way that we love; on a motorcycle. Jacksonville goes by many monikers, but "The Bold New City of the South" is one that immediately comes to mind. It's growing faster than it can handle, but with that growth comes new and interesting thing. As with any city, there are things that you can get here that you can get anywhere else and it's vistas are just about as diverse as the people that live here. What we'd like to try and do is help make Jacksonville a city that people don't just pass through, but rather stay and explore.

This especially goes for the motorcycle scene. I can't tell you how often I see groups of riders from elsewhere just passing through town on their way south to Daytona or Orlando, all the while missing what Jacksonville has to offer. It can be more than a little upsetting because there is actually a lot to do here. You just have to know where to look.

So my wife and I took our idea and are now taking steps to make this into something that we both (and hopefully you, too) think can turn into something quite successful. It's going to take some work, but we hope to broaden the market when it comes to motorcycle tourism here in Jacksonville. So without further ado, I present to you Northeast Florida ADV and Motorcycle tours! Please take a moment to visit our website. Click, share, spread the word, and follow us on Instagram @nefl_adv_and_motorcycle_tours! Thanks!

THE BIG PICTURE

Northeast Florida Adventure and Motorcycle Tours is the first of its kind in the region. Our adventure tours showcase the beautiful forested areas of northeast Florida and our street tours highlight both the new and the old of Jacksonville and surrounding areas. Both types of tour include a food or coffee stop with an emphasis on local fare as Jacksonville is one of the fastest growing cities in the southeast and has much to offer. Tours are all inclusive (excluding fuel and alcohol purchases) so you can relax and let our guides show you the way to a good time.

HOW IT WORKS

First, you will need these items in order to go on one of our tours.

1. A valid driver’s license with motorcycle endorsement
2. Proof of insurance (if applicable)
3. Your signed liability release waiver (this will be emailed to you)
4. Your motorcycle
5. Proper gear (helmet, jacket, gloves, boots, and pants. NO EXCEPTIONS!)

Choose the type of tour you would like, the date you would like to take it, and how many people will be in your party (6 motorcycles maximum). Please refer to the “Upcoming Tours” link to view availability.

Once we have this information, we take care of the rest! Before your tour, we will ask you what kind of food or drink you are in the mood for that day so our guides know where to take you. Depending on the size of the group we may call ahead to where you are going, so please refrain from changing your mind during your tour. Everywhere we go is excellent so no need to worry! All tours are led by guides that are Jacksonville natives and are well traveled in the areas you will be visiting. Guides will also be following pre-loaded GPS routes to make things easier (especially for the adventure rides) but since Jacksonville is a living, breathing city, a detour may be necessary here and there. Tours are all inclusive, just follow your guide and enjoy your time on your motorcycle!

OUR GOAL

Jacksonville is a very big place and we would like to try to expose you to just a small piece of what it has to offer. What better way to experience something like that than from behind the controls of a motorcycle! Adventure tours will highlight the dense, protected forest areas that pepper the area that make for some great off road riding suitable for all skill levels. The main idea of these rides is to immerse yourself in nature and enjoy it, not destroy it. Sustainability is key if more people are to enjoy these areas. Street rides will take you through some of the most scenic roads of Jacksonville and surrounding areas, giving you an idea of the diversity this great city has to offer. Since we are strong supporters of local fare, we will do our best to make sure you enjoy some of the best food and drink Jacksonville has to offer. With all that said, we mostly just want you to have fun!

We would greatly appreciate any an all help or feedback concerning our endeavor. If you're up for booking a trip, all tours are 50% off if you book before the end of March! Use the promo code GRANDOPENING at checkout.
