Saudi Arabia · The world’s most famous desert rally · BMW R 1300 GS
SAUDI ARABIA EXPEDITION 2027
Saudi Arabia
On BMW R 1300 GS
The Arabian world. A race the planet watches. One expedition.

12 days that will change the way you ride
Riyadh, early morning. You swing a leg over the BMW R 1300 GS and ahead of you lie 12 days of pure adventure across Saudi Arabia.
Endless deserts. Rugged mountain passes at 2,400 metres. Red Sea coastal roads. Off-road sections that will test both rider and machine.
Your expedition also takes you directly to the route of the world’s most famous desert rally, which takes place in Saudi Arabia during your trip. For three days, we ride sections the race passes through that day, and you’ll see it with your own eyes from publicly accessible spectator areas. Technical scrutineering and the Prologue are also open to the public.
This is not an official hospitality package. It’s an expedition of motorcyclists who want to experience the famous race from inside the country, not from inside the bivouac. We ride the same land, the same roads, in the same week. If you love desert rally raids, you know exactly what we’re talking about.
