We just completed the Grand Adventure Tour with one other couple, all of us riding our own bikes, and it was an epic trip of a lifetime! We have never been treated so well with so much attention to detail. The BMW 1250 fleet was all new and we were given tail bags to use to reduce having to bring our own. Everyone with the company has one mission and that is to give the client the best experience they can. They call themselves a boutique tour agency and I can attest to that. The hotels and meals were not only unique and in beautiful places, but they were top notch in every way. I have never eaten so well and so much on any other tour! Our guide and support personnel attended to our every need, but also gave us history of their culture, the countryside and the language. They're all very proud of this region and ready to show it off!
We went through Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, and Montenegro. Our tour guide ensured that all the border crossings went smoothly, along with the two ferry crossings.
Our tour was a combination of dirt, gravel and pavement. The off-road was spectacular, challenging and fun. There were twisty roads in the mountains and beautiful coastal routes. The farmland, mountains and Adriatic were too beautiful to describe.
We are extremely happy with Alkemist and look forward to our next tour with them!

Again, we returned after the pandemic to ride the Alps in style with 7 friends from USA and Mexico. All of us rode the new R1250 or 850 GS and the bikes performed flawlessly and really are the most comfortable bikes for adventure travel.
The Alkemist Team, Marko, "the general", Igor "our Yep Yep Guide", Simon "Akraopvic" and the lovely Dragana "keep the boys in line and planner extraordinaire": Again orchestrated our Adventure Tour Vacation - Life-Time Memorable!
Alkemist took us around the French and Italian Alps through the famous switch backs and little know roads and sights, planning ahead for the best routes in case of rain or detours, day by day on top of every detail to keep us happy, amazed and excited by the landscape, terrain and the adventure.
If you're like me, I really enjoy the ride but need the food and drinks after an amazing day of riding. The Alkemist Team finds the best cafes, hidden lunch spots with amazing views and dinner locations you dream of from such countries as France and Italy. Ohhhh the pastas, the steaks, fries, all the fresh breads and cold cut meats.....
When we finished the day and arrived at the hotel, Dragana would be waiting for us with cold beers and as we gloat about the day's adventures, the Alkemist team would deliver our bags to our rooms and bring us the room key. No waiting around to register at the hotel and no fuss. Arrive, have a cold beer, take a hot shower and ready for an amazing dinner...Repeat x12!!!
Thank you to our Alkemist Friends for making us feel like true friends and taking care of us like if our Mother called , hahahah.
If you want a Moto Adventure of a Life Time, I cannot recommend Alkemist more highly. They will deliver and unbelievable adventure that you will never forget!
Thank you and Thank you Alkemist! We are already planning for 2023.

This was by far the most incredible adventure experience on motorcycle. Alkemist Adventures Group surpassed all expectations. The preparedness, equipments, ride planning, and the staff, were all top notch. We were a group of eight. And at all time, the program leader, a coordinator, and 2 extra support staff were at our service 24/7 for the entire 10 plus days. Every morning, all motorcycles were cleaned, inspected, and ready to start a new day of adventure. Even to the smallest detail such as the drinking water bottles were checked and refilled every morning. At the end of each day, we were greeted at the hotel with ice cold beers, and a plan for a very special dinner. The entire group had an incredible time riding with Alkemist, and I can't wait to come back for the next adventure.

We spent two weeks traveling through Solvenia, Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia.
Short review: we rode new BMW adventure bikes through spectacular countries mostly on "local knowledge" routes, ate delicious local food, drank beer and laughed with new friends and came home with satisfaction and a new warm spot on our hearts.
Longer review: It was the most epic adventure to date. Our adventure was filled with exciting curves on tarmack and better on gravel and dirt roads up and down mountains and plunging down valleys and to coastlines.
The Alkemist Team perfected "service", they take care of everything so you can enjoy your time on the bike. You never wait around in line to check into your hotel and lug your gear to your room. When you arrive at your daily destination hotel, cabin, or glamping tent, you are greeted with a round of cold local beers and handed your room key. All your gear has been delivered to your room and ready for you to relax and prepare for dinner.
I never felt like we were riding with a tour company...It was friends showing what their country had to offer for fellow adventure riders.
There were challenges that were met and deserving an extra cold beer with pat on the back, friendships made that will carry in our hearts and in our homes for their visits in the future, and we came home with better knowledge and local understanding of the cultures, history and beliefs of new lands and people.
Funny how visiting the Baltic States, I learned and observed that Muslims, Jews and Christians can live and prosper together. Started as a bike tour and ended with personal growth and enrichment....
Thank you Team Alkemist: Marko, Tony, Manu, Klem and Dragana.
Thank you to my riding companions: Lalo Rico, Lalo Guapo, Blue "more next time", Robert "You know what I mean?" and "Parrrttttyyy" Martin!

Wat een fantastische trip!
De motoren (BMW GS800 en GS1200) zijn perfect en Marko en Tony doen echt alles om van de motortocht een fantastische ervaring te maken. De Sloveense alpen horen echt bij de mooiste motorbestemmingen van Europa.
Wij deden een customized on-road tour in Slovenië maar de volgende keer wordt het echt de off-road tour. Dit moet iedereen een keer meemaken!
