The first Adventure Roads trip in 2017 saw 40 riders take on an 8-day, 3,500km journey from Oslo to Nordkapp. In 2019, riders travelled 3,700km ‘coast to coast’ from Durban to Cape Town in South Africa across 12 adventure filled days. And next year, Honda’s offering 30 riders the chance to ride a new Africa Twin across the varied volcano landscape of Iceland over 11 days.
Riders will start out in Reykjavik, the most northerly capital city in the world – and wind their way down to the south of the island, before heading through the remote highlands of the north back to Reykjavik. It sounds like the perfect testing ground for Honda’s flagship adventure bike, as the route takes in perfect tarmac roads, gravel passes, black sand and river crossings.
Open to 30 riders from across Europe, the trip includes the bikes, guides, maintenance, food and accommodation – basically, Honda’s going to look after you. And you’ll get to meet and ride with some of HRC’s rally stars too.

At this stage, there’s been no confirmation of pricing – but the South African adventure set punters back around £6,500 – so chances are it’ll be somewhere around there. Not exactly cheap, but then again, it sounds like a once-in-a-lifetime trip. For more information on Honda’s Africa Twin range, click HERE.
