Our Tours
We offer a variety of guided tours, from short getaways to epic multi-day expeditions. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned off-road rider, we have something for you. Our tours typically include everything you need: the bike, fuel, accommodation, meals, park fees, guides, a support vehicle, a backup bike, a mechanic, and a first-aid kit. Some tours even include exciting extras like camping, safaris, and cultural visits.
Our bikes
We have a whole new fleet of the new 2024 Kove 450 Rally waiting for you. These are our typical tour bikes. We do not rent these to private individuals to make sure they are at the best state for our tours.
Ready to Rent?
We also rent out 125cc Boxer motorcycles. To rent from us, you just need to be 21 years old with a valid motorcycle license, ID, and credit card. You’ll pick up the bike with a full tank and return it the same way.
So, what are you waiting for?

Planning Your Trip
Tanzania is a fantastic year-round destination, but the dry season (May-October or October-February) offers the best weather. The climate is tropical, with hot days and cool nights. The local currency is the Tanzanian shilling (TZS). Visa requirements depend on your nationality, so check with your embassy or consulate. Consult your doctor for the latest vaccination recommendations before your trip. We highly recommend travel insurance for peace of mind.

Here’s a quick packing list to get you started:
- Passport & visa (if required)
- Travel insurance
- Hot weather clothing
- Light rain jacket
- Sturdy shoes
- Sunscreen & insect repellent
- Hat & sunglasses
