On our 16 day unicycle adventure we travel from Nairobi in Kenya through Tanzania to Dar es Salaam on the Indian Ocean coast. Riding far from busy roads and main tourist routes you will experience a different face of Africa - local villages and traditional tribesmen, breathtaking scenery and wildlife grazing on the plains. We travel through open Savannah, desert, mountain rainforest and tropical coastline. We follow the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro with its snow-covered peaks and camp in the wilderness under a cloudless African sky. We take a break from our unicycles to view Amboseli National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, which hosts the largest concentration of plains game anywhere in the world and gives you the wildlife experience that East Africa is famous for. Enjoy a day hike and visit a local school in the unspoilt Usambara Mountains. Riding through the Usambara Mountains and down to the tropical coastal forest and villages brings us finally to Dar es Salaam, “Haven of Peace”. Some people choose to extend their trip and follow with a trek of Mount Kilimanjaro or experience the culture and buzz of Zanzibar Island. Either of which we can help you to arrange. What is the unicycling like? 12 days unicycling - 90% on dirt and 4x4 roads, some paved roads, and a wee bit of non-technical single track. While most of the riding on this trip is non-technical from a biking perspective it is suited to skilled unicyclists. A good level of fitness will add to the enjoyment of your trip. From 25km to 90km per day. Total distance approximately 550km. The basic Lo-Down. We travel between Nairobi in Kenya and Dar es Salaam on the Indian Ocean coast in Tanzania. 100% vehicle supported.
