The epic three-day Kilimanjaro Guided Bike Tour will take you to West Kilimanjaro plains, a region in Northern Tanzania comprising both Maasai community lands and Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs). The area is filled with acacia woodland and open plains that support a remarkable variety of wildlife and spectacular views of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Moreover, the most common animals in the area include wildebeest, zebra, gazelles, impalas, giraffes, and baboons. Depending on the time of the year, elephants can also be observed as the region lies along an elephant corridor linking Kenya's Amboseli National Park & Mt. Kilimanjaro. This region is home to the nomadic Maasai herdsmen who co-exist with the surrounding wildlife, hence the term "Maasai Land." Given the rich culture of the Maasai people and the variety of wildlife, a cycling tour in this area is ideal for those discerning travelers looking for an unforgettable off-the-beaten-path adventure experience that includes walking, photography, culture, and scenery. Today you will start cycling early in the morning and proceed south towards the Ngabobo Village. An early start ensures you cover enough distance before the sun comes out. Today’s path is exciting as you will cycle through the arid open grasslands, an environment completely different from the lush, green slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro, which you have left behind. Also, wildlife such as wildebeest, giraffes, zebra, and elephants can be seen in the morning when we start cycling. Today’s route will be shorter but more challenging due to the terrain and weather. To finish, the last part of the path is a gradual ascent on a gravel road as you cycle through the Ngabobo Village toward the lodge. Today you will spend the night at the Maasai Lodge. Today’s route takes us to a new vegetation zone as we leave the arid zone and proceed towards the greener slopes of Mt. Meru. The slope is a gentle ascent through gravel roads as we head towards Momella near Arusha National Park. Then we will cycle through streams of water flowing down the slopes of Mt.Meru as we head towards the village of NgareNanyuki, a lively small town where you will cycle towards Arusha National Park. You might be lucky to see several giraffes as you approach the park. Finally, our route today ends on the edge of the Arusha national park. Then, after resting a bit, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Moshi.
