- Mount Kilimanjaro - We will start our journey at One Bike Shop, in the city center. Our trip will start with a two hours car transfer to the Londorossi gate on the west side of the Kilimanjaro mountain. From there we will begin the challenging bicycle ride upon the steep road that will take us through a rich green rainforest. We will find ourselves in the middle of many birds and wild animals. Then, the road will take us to the moorland zone from where we will be followed at all times by two beautiful views. On one side, uphill, we will see the magnificent Kibo peak covered with snow. On the other side, downhill, endless Maasai land will bring us peace and calmness. Depending on weather conditions, we will have packed lunch and take a break once we reach Shira plateau. We will then begin our ride back downhill. Finally, the ride will end at the Londorossi gate, from where we will organize a transfer back to the city.

Ideal day trip after climbing Kili, great value! - Amazing day, while phoning late at 20:00 the night before, Hillary picked up and at 07:00 next morning Roger the goung rider was at the hotel with 2x MTB and a 4wd follow car. Drive 1,5 hours to west kili (that I climbed 2 days before). A wonderful trip with high speed and low speed, technical and flat and above all, 50 zebra’s 8 giraffe multiple monkeys (baboon and blue) Masaaï villages and herds but so much different than the ones you visit on the safari trips (non commerce and authentic).
I felt a bit guilty that I selected the e-bike and we did about 70 km off road that day (arrived at lunch spot in 1,5 hrs normally planned as 4 hours 😂) since we were solo, Roger was good game and came up with many alternative loops. The following 4WD was always within 5 minutes distance so no need to carry backpack or camelback, just a bottle.
Lunch was relaxed in the bush and we were accompanied by a fee shephards (7-8 years old) who really like the nutribars and apple.
Wonderful day 07:00 to 16:00 and great value especially since this was private.
Must do experience!

Bike Ride opportunity of a Lifetime - Roger and Good Luck were such great guide and driver. We had a wonderful experience on the mountain. The full suspension E bikes were new and worked great.

Great tour! - This was such a unique tour. I wanted to do something different other than trekking and so chose this. Roger was an exceptional guide very experience cyclist and the best thing about him was his calm and patient manner.
Be forewarned, this isn’t easy (well if you’re a novice to cycling on rough terrain like me!) The trail has a lot of rocks and streams which you are required to cross by carrying your bike. I struggled, but Roger really did make the experience easier for me, when I couldn’t cycle he agreed to walk and push, he carried my bike for me across the rivers/stream and it didn’t seem to phase him. Don’t let what I have said phase you either because even if you are not an advanced cyclist you are still in good hands.
If you like cycling, want a challenge, want to see some amazing views be sure to book this trip!
