About Me

Hi, I"m John, and I run Orkney Trike Tours. I offer you a unique way to.experience Orkney. Using my love of history, wildlife, Orkney and motorcycles to give you a completely different way to see the wonders of Orkney.

Riding the Trike lets you absorb the full Orkney Atmosphere as you travel to see the sites sounds and smells of Orkney. Yes the scents that modern vehicles filters out , of the heady scent of clover in full flower or perhaps the scent of the brightly flowering gorse. Savour the smells of the seashore or of farm life, and let these scents take you back to your childhood.

You will arrive in style, as you are guided around Orkney. It's the nearest thing to riding your own motorbike but with the safety of being driven by an advanced driver. Whether you are reliving your past, or trying motorcycling for the first time you are never to old to ride with the freedom our trike gives you.

In 2017 I became a tour guide offering tours on a 1500cc custom built Trike. I offer themed or bespoke tours, of various lengths.

I base my tours on what you want to see and do so just ask me, you may be surprised what can be done on a trike tour.

Of course some just want to ride the trike and we are just as happy to take you around Orkney and let you enjoy the whole Orkney atmosphere.

All our trike tours offer protective equipment and helmets to keep you warm and dry. There is two way intercoms everyone on the trike. Both me and the Trike are fully insured and we are licensed by the Orkney Islandd Council.

You can be picked up from your cruise ship, ferry port, airport or your accommodation.

I can now also offer tours for parties of up to six people combining the use of a car and the trike. If you arrive on your own motorcycle. No problem as I run escorted motorcycle tours of Orkney. If you have your own tansport I do step on tours, as well as walking tours around Kirkwall and Stromness.

Visiting Orkney? Look us up on our website, email or call us to see if we can offer you a unique way of experiencing Orkney, but what ever and whoever you pick to guide you around Orkney all I can say is enjoy these beautiful islands whilst you are here and if you see me or the Trike give us a wave.
