KERALA TOUR – JAN 2025
Had the best riding experience with A B original!
A must if you like to ride and want the experience of riding in India.
The average ride would cope easily with the roads we had a few guys mid 70s and they had no problem at all.
Hotels were amazing and back up staff on the bikes looked after everything. Don’t hesitate to book a tour with AB original. I well be back to do it all again next year.
Thanks to Atul and the team. – Tim Snary (Bristol, UK)

HIMALAYAN TOUR – SEP 2024
I was referred to AB Original tours from a friend that has done two, and it did not dissapoint. We did the Spiti tour of Himalayas and scenery and riding was spectacular. Atul and the team run a fantastic tour and looked after us from the moment we landed until we departed India. Highly recommended. – Michael B (Oakleigh, Aus)

HIMALAYAN GRAND TOUR – JUL 2024
The AB Original 22 Day High Himalaya Tour is combines fun challenging riding with an epic and amazing introduction to India and the Indian Himalayas (for me first timer in India). I have done several Guided Self-guided Motorcycle Tours, including Patagonia (guided 3 weeks), Morocco (guided 2 weeks), Central Asia (guided 3 weeks), Spain/Portugal (guided 3 weeks), New Zealand (self-guided 4 weeks), and multiple self-guided tours through USA and Canada. Atul is the owner of AB Original. This Tour was well organized, from initial booking, airport pickup upon arrival, hotel bookings and at end of the tour being dropped off at the airport. My trip included a couple additional days as I arrived early so I could tour Delhi and stayed several days after the motorcycle tour ended on July 22 so that I could Tour the Taj Mahal and Jaipur. Atul made arrangements for these additional Tours. As for the Motorcycle Tour, the riding at times was challenging (it didn’t help that I was the only American stuck amongst 9 Aussies and New Zealanders — having trouble understanding them, but essentially at end of day their conversation can be summed up as “Blah, blah, blah, BEER, Blah, blah, blah, COLD BEER, blah, blah, blah, NO COLD BEER, OK GIVE ME THE WARM BEER.” Seriously, could not have asked for a better group to ride with. The Lead Tour Guide, Dheeraj did an outstanding job making sure everything went smoothly, and the two support vehicles with certified Royal Enfield Mechanic ensured bikes were always in tip top condition and offered an alternative to riding if roads proved a bit too challenging (an option not needed with our group). – Henry Miller (USA)

HIMALAYAN SPITI CIRCUIT – 2024
Wow what an amazing trip! Atul, Deeraj andthe whole team made sure that the trip was as smooth, comfortable and a whole lot of fun 😊 The food was incredible, so much variety, the places we stayed were clean, comfortable and great value for money. The scenery was definitely a highlight. The bikes were so easy and comfortable to ride especially on some of the more ‘adventurous’ roads we went on! Atul made everything so easy, even before and after the tour.
Would highly recommend to anyone that’s wants a cool adventure with some great people!

SIKKIM TOUR – OCT 2024.
Did the Sikkim – Darjeeling (Eastern Himalayas) motorcycle with AB Original tours in October 2024, and it was fabulous! From booking to initial airport transfer to the airport drop-off at the end the entire trip was flawlessly organised, supported and delivered.The hotels and food were exceptional, and the off-bike experiences and places of interest were fascinating and gave a wonderful insight into the rich culture of India. Atul has built a very professional tour outfit, and as a motorcyclist he knows what riders want and need, and delivers in spades! Riding our sturdy RE Himalayan 411’s through the stunning landscapes of the eastern Himalayas was breath-taking, and the ride pace and rest stops were tailored to let us take it all in. The road conditions varied from excellent to “… that’s a road?” but the bikes soaked it all up with no dramas, and we all came away with some new riding skills. Lots of mountain hairpin bends uphill and downhill, with/without cows, dogs, chickens, monkeys, goats, yaks, potholes, landslides and traffic of all vehicle sizes. What a blast!

Motorcycle Tour of Rajasthan in March 2019 with AB Original Tours
Seeing India on Royal Enfield’s is such a great experience you won’t regret or forget.
AB Original certainly know what they are doing, and what a magnificent tour we had. I cannot recommend them enough and they have certainly got the riding / sightseeing balance perfect. There is something about going with an Indian company as they sure take you to some amazing places and are willing to share their culture with you.
It is an absolute value for money.…The accommodation was sensational and we stayed in places where photos don’t do them any justice. The food was amazing in the hotels and in eating places we were taken to by AB Original Tours.
The 500cc Royal Enfield Classic bikes were excellent and more than capable for pillion passengers. Our wives all loved the experience also. “Rajasthan” is the best place for a ”motorcycle tour” and “AB original Tours” are the ones to go with. Just Do It!
Thanks Atul!, Dheeraj and Crew!I am open to receive any call or text if you want any further reassuring – Tim Mars (0419197730)

Himalayan Grand Circuit 3 week adventure
I’ve just got back from the August 2019 circuit and cannot agree more with the other review by Michael which describes perfectly how professionally this trip is conducted.
The beauty of this operation is that it is run with very close backup by extremely skilled mechanics, the bikes are in good order and the advice and briefings are obviously based on many years of experience. The head guide is a local who not only knows how to get things done but is a great guy who makes it all interesting and fun. I’ve done a few trips in my lifetime but this was one for the poolroom. I repeat what was said by Michael ……. just do it.Read this full review on our TripAdvisor listing: Click here
Clifford Hobden – Sydney, NSW
I have travelled with Atul , owner of AB Original Tours, and his support crew on quite a few tours over the last few years, both to the Himalayas and Rajasthan, and on all these previous tours I have already highly recommended the company based on the quality, value for money and attention to detail that Atul and his crew deliver.
It was without any second thought that when he started to promote his Royal Enfield Biking tours in Kerala , that I signed up immediately for another unique Enfield Experience.
I was not disappointed in the result. The tour Itinerary was very well planned / researched to show the diverse scenery of Southern India and we were all able to have time to explore each individual rest place. From the Tea plantations in the hills , the tropical beaches and the infamous backwaters , each day was a spectacular adventure both on and off the bike.
The standard of accommodation was excellent ( beyond expectation ) the Royal Enfield bikes themselves were in perfect condition and were fully maintained throughout the tour
All this spectacular experience was reinforced by the company of Atul , crew and the other fellow travellers .
As stated before , I am already a repeat customer with AB Original Tours , and I have no hesitation to continue in this tradition

“Himalayan Grand Tour”
This is the first organized tour I have been on, and Atul has set a very high standard. The location speaks for itself, the scenery is breathtaking. You can never tell what is around the next corner which made the riding really entertaining. If you are up for a challenge I highly recommend riding the Classic. The weather is mostly warm so I recommend ventilated riding gear with waterproof coveralls. You will also need thermals and a jumper as a couple of days and nights did get quite cold. The planning and organization of the trip were meticulous, making for a relaxed and fun time. The team are fantastic and you can tell they all love their work. All in all, a great experience. I highly recommend this company

I have loved my participation in the Rajasthan tour with ABoriginal. I would recommend this tour to any of my friends if they want to enjoy riding in India safely, and do the tourist in a different format.
Miguel A. Ferri – Spain
This experience should be on every ones bucket list. Atul – you have the perfect formula and are one of the nicest people we’ve met around the world.

Atul, many thanks for the excellent organisation and guidance during our challenge. I went home with a wonderful experience and an incredible impression of India.
Jake Schaaf – The Netherlands
I couldn’t have made a better choice than ABoriginal tours… It was an amazing experience and incredible fun riding with a great group of riders with similar approaches to travel.
Les Wilson – Luxembourg
Great trip in every way, from quality of bikes to level of support provided by Atul & his team Dheeraj and support crew.
Kieran McShera – Dublin, Ireland
Definitely an adventure. Super well organized. Everyday unique. Capable support staff including 4 trucks. Any bike repair immediately attended to, if I was to return to India for another motorcycle tour, I would choose ABorignal tours without a doubt.
