The first ever Unicycle tour in Africa, off road from Nairobi to Dar es Salaam
Experience the culture, wildlife and landscapes of an amazing continent on one wheel!.
Escape Adventures is a small personal travel company with a passion for getting out and exploring new and exiting destinations around the world. Most people believe that the only way to see Africa is by vehicle. We know from experience that after a couple of days riding with us you will realise that this is the only way to truly appreciate this magnificent continent.
On our 16 day Unicycle adventure we will follow our mountain-bike route from Nairobi in Kenya through Tanzania to Dar es Salaam on the Indian Ocean coast. Riding far from busy roads and main tourist routes you will experience a different face of Africa - local villages and traditional tribesmen, breathtaking scenery and wildlife grazing on the plains. We travel through open savannah, desert, mountain rainforest and tropical coastline. We follow the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro with its snow-covered peaks and camp in the wilderness under a cloudless African sky.
We take a break from our Unicycles to view Amboseli National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, which hosts the largest concentration of plains game anywhere in the world and gives you the wildlife experience that East Africa is famous for. Enjoy a day hike and visit a local school in the unspoilt Usambara Mountains. Biking through the Usambara Mountains and down to the tropical coastal forest and villages brings us finally to Dar es Salaam, “Haven of Peace”.
Some people choose to extend their trip and follow with a trek of Mt Kilimanjaro or experience the culture and buzz of Zanzibar Island. Either of which we can help you to arrange.
