From the Pyramids of Giza to Table Mountain, explore Africa from top to bottom on TDA's flagship cycling expedition
The trans-African crossing from Cairo to Cape Town has long been one of the world’s epic journeys and an iconic goal for global adventurers. Over the years individuals have attempted to complete the route using every kind of transport imaginable, with many forced to abandon their quest due to physical challenges and geopolitical complications. The Tour d’Afrique Cycling Expedition is a unique test of mind, body and bicycle, an incredible physical and mental challenge that will ultimately reward the riders with an intense feeling of personal satisfaction and accomplishment.
Our trans-continental journey and flagship expedition crosses Africa from north to south as riders pedal along the Nile past ancient temples before flying to Rwanda to continue the journey through the ‘Land of a 1000 Hills.’ The route continues through the lush rainforests of Uganda and crosses the Equator in Kenya. The cyclists will spin past legendary Mount Kilimanjaro and Lake Malawi and stop to admire the incredible power of Victoria Falls. Finally, the track follows the edge of the magnificent Kalahari desert, past the towering red dunes of Namibia and finishes in the shadow of Table Mountain in beautiful Cape Town, South Africa.
