My 3 day tour of the Shira Plateau and West Kilimanjaro has to be one of the best bike rides I’ve ever done. My guide, Hillary, from One Bike listened carefully to what I wanted to do and created a tour that perfectly fitted the brief. Cycling at 3,800m is not for the faint hearted but worth the effort for the views and incredible environment. Cycling through villages and plains of west Kilimanjaro was amazing - wildlife, warm people, views to die for. Also stayed in two wonderful lodges. A MUST for any cyclist!Show more

At 67 years of age, I’ve joined many tours over the years. I rate OneBike with the 360 Kilimanjaro cycle tour as the best tour of my life. Everything was perfect. Every promise fulfilled. Every expectation met or exceeded. An as-new 29er, well tuned and maintained throughout the 7 day tour. Every step of the tour perfectly planned and executed. Wonderful accommodation all booked and prepaid by the tour company. The top praise goes to Roger the guide. Nothing I requested or asked was too much trouble and he was a source of endless good humour and support. This tour was stunning. Thanks OneBike.Show more

I have just returned from a cycling tour, with three friends, through Tanzania that was organised by One Bike Tanzania. The whole trip was absolutely fabulous and I can't recommend these guys highly enough. Everything ran like clockwork and they were great fun to be with. It far exceeded all of our expectations. Our route took us 275km from the Kilimanjaro foothills to the entrance to the Ngorongoro caldera, which we did in 5 days. Really varied cycling and some inspired routes taking us into areas we never expected to see. The bikes were excellent Giant hard-tail MTBs that were virtually new. The accommodation was far better than we dared hope for with good meals and healthy packed lunches. Our trip included game-drives in Tarangire and Ngorongoro, that One Bike Tz arranged, and the transport and the guide were absolutely brilliant. Also, the guys have a fabulous, charitable ethos and they have gifted several bikes to needy people in their community, with plans for many more. Chapeau! Do yourself a favour and take this mind-blowing trip.Show more
