THE MACHINE

Harley‑Davidson™ sidecars — one driver, two passengers

Each outfitted sidecar team consists of a Harley‑Davidson™ motorcycle with a driver and the capacity to carry two passengers in the sidecar. The configuration makes the ride an intimate, visceral way to experience mountain roads together.

THE SCENERY

A concentrated dose of the Canadian Rockies

Though only an hour long, the tour threads into the Rockies, offering riders a compact window onto the region’s dramatic landscape—an ideal sampler for first‑time visitors or couples on a tight schedule.

THE PRACTICALS

Family‑friendly grouping and daily departures

Operated daily from April through October, the tour accepts single passengers and groups — reservations can be made for up to ten people — making it straightforward to slot the ride into a family itinerary or a group day out.

What the hour feels like

After a downtown fitting, you buckle into the sidecar and set off with a driver for a spirited, hour‑long run through mountain terrain. The format blends the thrill of motorcycle travel with guided logistics—short, intense, and centred on outdoor viewing rather than long‑distance transit.
