What’s Not Included
-Meals : No meals included. We take you to great local places, you pay your own bill.
Breakfast Not Included: If you see “breakfast included” from another tour company, that tells you they stay in cheap generic hotels with a small breakfast included. Ride Free stays usually at more interesting places. Interesting places don’t always include breakfast. I personally wouldn’t go on any tour if “breakfast included” is listed. That is not a good thing.
Meals: Optional meal plan available on some tours, meals not normally included.

What’s Included in Riding Light Guided Tours
These are similar to a Fully Guided Tour, but if there is only a very very small group, just a handful of people, so we can still run a tour for you.
Only one tour guide is included so we can run such a small group.
The group chooses either a guide on a bike or a guide driving the support truck leading.
If the guide in on a bike, then everyone carries their own luggage.
- Tour Guide: leads the group on a motorcycle on the tour, or drives a support truck. Up to your group which one.
- Lodging – Where We Stay
- Harley Davidson- some other makes and models have an extra charge. For 2020, the Electra Glide only comes as an Ultra Limited and is an extra charge. Or choose a Street Glide Grand Touring with the tall shield, comfortable rear large seat, and top box. Just like the Electra Glide at no extra cost . And it sits about 3 inches lower so it is much easier to park and put your feet down.
