Bicycle Africa
A program of Ibike LLC

• Bicycle Africa specializes in medium soft bike tours / cultural adventure for Westerners seeking to learn more about Africa at a person-to-person level not usually available to tourists.
• We offer bicycle tours in all regions in Africa because no one place or country in Africa epitomizes Africa.
• All programs are small group (6 to 10 people).
• Most are self-contained bicycle touring -- occasionally programs have a gear vehicles.
• Each program is unique and highlights the diversity of the culture, social institutions and environment, and the complexity of the history, economy and society.
• The cycling varies from program to program but is generally easy to moderate, averaging under 40 miles (65 km) per days, with side trips available for those with extra energy.
• Accommodations reflect the diversity of Africa and range from western style hotels to basic traditional village housing.
• Safety and security is a concern in our selection of destinations and routes, but we can't sanitize the world (see next point and "myths of Africa").
• The program is ideal for the realist who appreciates the world and the wonderful rewards to be gained for the modest rigors of bicycle touring.
