Cycle challenge
Challenge level
Discover the amazing wildlife, the sprawling plains and the sparkling coast of Tanzania on this phenomenal charity bike ride. Kicking off at the foot of the mighty Mount Kilimanjaro, we’ll cycle through mountains, past lakes and through friendly local towns to the paradise beach in Pangani.
No trip to Tanzania is complete without wildlife watching and we’ll get our fi x right away at Lake Jipe, home to hippos and crocodiles, with a visiting herd of zebras. This sets us up to keep our eyes peeled on every pedal of our 431km challenge. If we’re lucky, we’ll spot elephants, wildebeests, gazelles and more!
The animals aren’t the only thing to get excited about. Tough climbs lead to extraordinary vistas, with jagged cliff s, swooping valleys and a patchwork of lush grassland, topped with endorphins and an incredible sense of achievement.
We fi nish our adventure at the postcard-perfect beach town of Pangani. With white-sand bays and gentle blue shores, Pangani really is the perfect end to our adventure!

Why not jump on our awesome optional three-day extension package and discover the island of Zanzibar?
If you choose to do this, prepare for Paradise! Instead of transferring to the airport at the end of our bike ride, you will catch a boat from Pangani to Nungwi Beach on Zanzibar island. The next two days will be free for you to spend as you wish on the island, followed by a fantastic chance to tour the Stone Town and its variety of spice plantations, once the flourishing centre of the spice trade.
