16 Days | ~2500 Kms | Across 4 Indian States

Get ready for an epic ride across South India’s diverse landscapes — from colonial coastal towns to sacred temple cities, serene backwaters to coffee-covered hills, and ancient ruins to sun-kissed beaches — all from the saddle of a Royal Enfield Himalayan.

Our Ride the Southern Coast & Hills: Chennai to Goa motorcycle tour is a carefully crafted 18-day journey that blends cultural immersion, scenic riding, and plenty of time to relax at the journey’s end.

Starting in the bustling city of Chennai, we follow the East Coast Road to the French-inspired streets of Puducherry before heading inland to Madurai, home to the iconic Meenakshi Amman Temple. The route then winds to the cliffside charm of Varkala, into the tranquil backwaters of Alappuzha for a private houseboat stay, and onward to the historic port city of Cochin.

From here, we climb into the cool blue hills of Ooty in the Nilgiris, ride through the royal elegance of Mysore, sip fresh brews in Chikkamagaluru, and explore the UNESCO-listed ruins of Hampi. At Badami, we marvel at the ancient red sandstone cave temples before the final push to Goa. The tour ends with three full days of leisure in this coastal paradise — the perfect way to celebrate the journey.

Covering around 2500 kilometers, this route is designed for comfort and adventure, with no riding day exceeding ~295 km. You’ll experience South India’s royal heritage, sacred traditions, lush hills, and laid-back coastal lifestyle — all in one unforgettable ride.
