The Manx GP - formerly Isle of Man Classic TT - & the best of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way
The Isle of Man MANX GP CENTENERY YEAR & the best of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way
This very special motorcycle tour combines our Classic Wild Atlantic Way motorcycle tour with the Isle of Man MANX GP on the famous TT course. It’s been designed for riders who want to ride in style, see the best of the West coast of Ireland, and spend a a full week soaking up the atmosphere at the The Isle of Man MANX GP Centenary festival. It’s such a great event – reserved for the purists!
2023 is the Centenary Year for the Manx GP, so this year we are changing our tour from previous years to allocate more days on the island to see more of the racing action.
Start and finish your tour close to Dublin International Airport at our Trim location.
The tour leaves from Dublin port to ferry across to the Isle of Man. Spend 7 nights in a 4 star hotel centrally located on the promenade in Douglas. On your return, you can unwind by riding around Ireland’s famous Wild Atlantic route.
We have selected riding routes with an emphasis on scenery and being off the beaten path. Of course the choice is yours, but you will have an option to shorten the day’s ride should you wish to arrive at your destination earlier.
Upon returning to Ireland, the tour heads west to the coast and brings you northwards along the Wild Atlantic Way, before riding the coastal route in Northern Ireland to Belfast. Finally returning to Trim. Truly a trip to be remembered!
