A Cycling Safari

Safari and cycling? Never thought of combining the freedom of two wheels with an exhilarating adventure in the African wilderness? You should. Mountain biking through the bush can offer a far deeper, more involved experience than your traditional vehicle game drive getting you closer to the all action and being able to cover more ground than a luxury walking safari in Africa.

Here’s a couple of top lodges for a luxury African biking safari.

Tafika, Zambia

A lodge that for wilderness lovers, who’d rather hear a fish eagle’s call or a lion’s roar than the hum of air-conditioning, Tafika offer great mountain bike safari options in Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park. 

Karisia Walking Safaris, Kenya

Karisia are pioneering mountain-biking safaris in Kenya. From the lush hills of the Matthews Mountains to the dusty bush of Tumaren ranch, spend days travelling from camp to camp through the bush as Samburu warriors lead you through their own land.

Singita Ebony, South Africa

In The Sabi Sands Game Reserve, Singita Ebony is a perfect blend of sophisticated luxury and safari hospitality and offers fantastic guided mountain bike safaris perfect for people wanting to experience the Big Five prowling around the bush.
