Based in West Africa for more than twenty years, Guillaume designs motorcycle adventure trips across Togo, Benin, Senegal and Guinea, riding along red dirt tracks, lively villages and authentic encounters at the heart of a vibrant and deeply human Africa.
My name is Guillaume. Since 1998, I have made West Africa both my playground and my home. Passionate about travel and off-road motorcycling, I first crossed these lands by bicycle before returning to settle here permanently. Very quickly, I understood that Africa cannot be discovered from the surface it must be lived from within, at the rhythm of tracks, villages and encounters.
Over the years, I have ridden hundreds of thousands of kilometers across Senegal, Guinea, Mali, Togo and Côte d’Ivoire. I founded my local agency to structure this passion and build strong logistics, surrounded by a loyal and experienced African team. Guides, mechanics, drivers we share the same standards and the same love for this land.
What drives me every day is sharing an authentic, vibrant and deeply human Africa, far from conventional routes. Here, adventure is not a backdrop it is a living reality that I invite you to experience.

West Africa cannot be discovered from behind a window it must be lived at the rhythm of the track. For more than 25 years, I have been organizing motorcycle expeditions and raids across territories where adventure remains raw and genuine. Here, you ride through villages where children run toward the sound of engines, load motorcycles onto handcrafted ferries to cross rivers, and follow endless red laterite tracks.
My journey has never been improvised. After cycling across Africa in the 1990s, I chose to build my life here. I founded my local agency, developed solid logistics and built a loyal and experienced African team. Guides, mechanics and drivers we have worked together for years, driven by the same passion and standards.
Every itinerary I design is based on deep field knowledge. Political contexts, local realities, rainy seasons, track conditions in West Africa, anticipation is essential. We adapt routes to ensure safety, fluidity and immersion. This expertise allows me today to take riders on exclusive trails that are often inaccessible without a strong local network.
Yet what leaves the strongest impression on my travelers is not only the riding. It is the encounters. A shared meal in a remote camp, an improvised roadside mechanic, a lively market at sunrise. West Africa is a land of hospitality and generosity. Smiles are spontaneous, exchanges sincere.
I favor an approach that is committed yet accessible. Tracks can be technical, the climate demanding, but the goal is never pure performance. I seek the balance between challenge, discovery and riding pleasure. Riding here means embracing the unexpected feeling the heat, the dust and the energy of the land.
Over the years, I have guided more than 500 riders across these African territories. From Senegal to Guinea, from Mali to Côte d’Ivoire, each country has its own identity, landscapes, music and cuisine. My role is to open the doors to this diversity with confidence.
If you are looking for a real, intense and deeply human Africa, I will take you where the road becomes a track and where adventure truly makes sense.
