Mountain bike tour in Moshi - We had a great time with Saït. He was patient with us and showed us the real life in Moshi.
Thanks so much. The mountain bikes were great and the lunch was enormous.
We really recommend this tour.

Amazing experience! - This was an amazing experience. From the bike ride with Said to the nice conversation with Charles. You will stop by a local school, visit a market, talk to farmers, try local banana beer, visit a church, try local fruits and have a drink or two at the rooftop terrace. I even had a quick nap under the tree 🤗. I learned a lot about the history of this beautiful country and it's people. Till we meet again, asante sana!!!

Best tour I have experienced in my life! - This trip is guided by Charles from “Safari by Leo” (it’s a family owned safari and cultural tour based (small but beautiful) company owned by Leo and Charles). Charles is book of knowledge. He explained us the history, culture of different tribes in Tanzania especially Chagga tribe who predominantly live
at the foothills of Kilimanjaro (by the way Charles himself from Chagga tribe :)).
Actual trip is only cycle tour around foothills. But Charles loves his country so much and he wanted to give us more experience about Tanzania and he has additionally done Moshi town guided tour and night life tour of Moshi. I am quite convinced he is not doing this culture tour for money. It’s his passion to show Tanzania to tourists and explain its history to world! I highly recommend this tour and other cultural tours organised by Charles (Safari by Leo) to all tourists visiting Tanzania!

Best Biking for Authentic Village Experience - Went on the bike ride with Charles and it was fantastic. First, he is extremely knowledgeable about history and culture, so you can learn a lot during the tour. In addition, Charles is a great guy and wonderful guide. He really provides a glimpse into authentic mountain village life, including a visit to a school where he did volunteer work, and a visit to the home of a local resident. Truly, one of the best ways you can spend a day (or half day) in Moshi.

Amazing experience with the best people - We had an amazing day with our biking guides Charles and Said. We cycled in the countryside around Moshi, through small villages and even visited a school! We were enthousiastically greeted everywhere and got to meet the extremely friendly people of Tanzania this way. We went to a beautiful hot spring, were we had a refreshing swim and nice lunch with our guides. The whole trip Charles and Said provided us with interesting information about the culture and scenery, while at the same time singing and having a great laugh :). We also had the pleasure of meeting safari expert Leo (since she wasn't on safari, she got to join us on the bike ride) who knows everything about wildlife and is the extremely friendly owner of Safaribyleo. Even when one of our bikes had a flat tire, they made sure to keep the vibes positive - hakuna matata :) - and fixed it professionally and quickly. All together this was an incredible experience with amazing people, we would totally recommend this to anyone who would like to combine adventure with meeting the beautiful culture of Tanzania!

Bike/walking tour in Moshi town - We did the bike/walking tour around Moshi with Charles (Leo's husband). If you want to experience the local atmosphere and escape from the most touristic spots, this is your tour! We cycled through the villages next to Moshi and we could interact with their people and know more about their day-to-day life. Charles explained a lot of things (culture, history, nature....). He was very friendly and attentive and we felt very comfortable with him. We also walked through the markets, had lunch in a good restaurant, and we ended our tour with a beer in a rooftop with views of Moshi. We didn't see Mount Kilimanjaro (it was partly cloudy) but the tour was worth it.
(Careful with the cars! ;) )

Charles made my day 😀 - Amazing day on our bikes 😀 I have seen so much and learnt a lot about the history, politics, education and everyday life. Charles answered all my questions and showed me the foothill of Kilimanjaro, villiage life, coffee plants. There is no topic he wouldn’t discuss with me. After a while, you have feeling that he is a long known friend of yours. I haven’t felt so great and relaxed for very long. Highly recommend this guy!

Wonderful - I did the Peddle Power day ride through the villages around Kilamajaro. I had a great time! My tour guide was very accommodating to my schedule and I learned a lot about the local culture and norms I might otherwise had not know about
