About this trip
Seven days of cycling across northern Tanzania, starting near the foot of Kilimanjaro and finishing at the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. You cover the region under your own steam, rather than from a vehicle window, taking in the changing landscape at a slower pace.
Expect a mix of open plains, farmland, and villages, with the crater's scale as the payoff at the end. It's a moderate-grade ride, so you'll want a reasonable base level of fitness rather than serious cycling experience.
Guided throughout as part of a small group, with wildlife, culture, and views of Tanzania's northern circuit woven into the route rather than saved for a single stop.
What you'll do
- Cycle from the base of Kilimanjaro across northern Tanzania
- Ride through rural villages and farmland along the way
- Take in panoramic views of the northern circuit by bike
- Finish at the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater
- Spot wildlife en route through the region
- Rated moderate — you'll need a reasonable fitness level for consecutive days of cycling
- Fully guided small-group format throughout
