The "Cycle Namibia" tour starts and ends in Windhoek. It is a mountain biking trip that takes 12 days taking you through Swakopmund, Spitzkoppe, Windhoek and 6 other destinations in Namibia. "Cycle Namibia" is a guided small group tour that includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.

Namibia is a vast country with wide-open spaces and endless skies. Dunes gradually turn into granite hills, while rocky outcrops give way to vast plains where elephants, giraffes and lions roam. Travelling through the wilderness by bike is undoubtedly one of the best ways to experience the varied landscape of this desert nation and there is also the unique experience of cycling over dunes on a modified fat bike.

Discover the highlights and hidden secrets of the country on two wheels, watch the sun rise over some of the tallest dunes in the world and experience game drives in one of the best game reserves in southern Africa, Etosha National Park.
