Epic is maybe too small a word to categorize this sixteen-day tour in the Mother-Continent. Too many highlights to list here, too many superlative words that make us wonder: is it possible to see and live all that on a motorcycle? The answer is definitely yes!
We'll be at the very tip of Africa, at Cape of Good Hope, round Table Mountain by Chapman's Peak Drive. From there we head North to the leopard sanctuary of Cederberg Mountains. In Namibia, we will ride to the border of Fish River Canyon, climb some of the highest dunes on the planet, visit the red sands of Sossusvlei and stand at the mystical Dead Vlei.
The incredible gravel roads of the Naukluft Mountains will take us to the next challenge, the crossing of the Kalahari desert. There, we'll have the opportunity to meet the San people and maybe try to learn a few words on their strange clicking language. At Botswana, we will embark on a scenic flight over the Okavango, the world’s largest inland river delta. From there we'll be taken along the Makgadigadi and Netwetwe salt pans and the Elephant Road to the Chobe National Park with one of the largest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. After seeing elephants, hippos, buffalos, crocodiles, waterbucks... the tour must end.
We will party in Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world. See..." largest, highest, bigger", is it possible? Come see it for yourself!
We use BMW motorcycles supplied by our local BMW Motorrad partner and prepared to withstand the rigours of a tour with a high percentage of gravel roads.
