Grab your motorbike rental and get ready to experience Hamburg in a whole new way. Thanks to Germany’s careful eye for detail and planning, Hamburg is home to some of the most enjoyable motorcycle routes. If you’re a motorcycle enthusiast, the first thing you’ll want to do is check the dates for Germany’s Motorcycle Days - Hamburg Motorradtage, which is a gathering and display of some of the most beautiful motorcycles.
The Autobahn, not strictly a sight-seeing expedition, but it is one of the most enjoyable roads to ride at high speeds. The Autobahn is 440 km long, and the 8th of that has no speed restrictions
The waterfront promenade on the Binnenlaster in the evenings is a stunning sight. It’s in the commercial heart of Hamburg, and home to many flagship stores in front of the Binnenlaster is a terrace and filled with cafes.
Park your hired motorcycle for a few hours between rides and enjoy real German coffee and fresh pastries. St Michael’s Church is one of the most famous churches in north Germany and has an interesting backstory. Not only did it crumble when hit with lightning, but it was then ravaged by fire.
To take in a stunning view of the harbor, you’ll climb 106 meters up to the observation deck. From Hamburg, you can get to Bremen in around 1.5 hours. The Bremen City Hall is worth the time to get there, and mileage too.
A little closer is Ahrensburg, a 30-40 minute ride along with the A1 to see Ahrensburg Palace. What makes Hamburg and Germany, in general, a great place to rent a motorcycle is that they also love to ride motorcycles as a population. You’ll find like-minded bikers and pick up a few tips for your motorcycle rental trip too!
