Kilimanjaro & Meru Active Adventure
Tour Overview
Ride the Wild Heart of Tanzania: Kilimanjaro, Maasai Lands & Mount Meru Adventure
Experience Northern Tanzania from a completely different perspective on an active adventure combining spectacular mountain landscapes, wildlife-rich wilderness, Maasai culture and exhilarating days on foot and by bike.
From the mountain, continue into the Enduimet Wildlife Management Area and Amboseli ecosystem, where the scenery opens into vast plains dotted with acacia trees. Cycle through this remote wilderness in search of wildlife, including some of Africa’s last great tusker elephants, stopping along the way for a bush lunch beneath an acacia tree. With vehicle support and different riding options available, there’s flexibility to enjoy the adventure at your own pace.
The journey continues through Maasai lands towards Mount Meru, following rural tracks through landscapes shaped by volcanic activity, local communities and centuries of history. After a rewarding day in the saddle, settle into a characterful Maasai-inspired lodge, where an infinity pool and peaceful surroundings provide a welcome place to recharge.
Next, swap your bike for hiking boots and venture into Arusha National Park to discover another side of Northern Tanzania. Hike through the lush, lichen-draped forests of Mount Meru, keeping an eye out for wildlife along the way, with the option to combine your walk with a game drive around the beautiful Momella Lakes.
Conclude your journey with a final sunrise ride through Tanzania’s rural landscapes before departing with memories of a truly immersive African adventure.
A perfect blend of mountain biking, hiking, wildlife, and culture—this is Tanzania beyond the ordinary.
