For any adventurer, Africa must be experienced. We all have our mixed, pre-conceived notions of Africa. Put these aside. What awaits you is a fantastic place with diverse and beautiful, awe-inspiring landscapes combined with a relatively harmonious cultural diversity… and the wildlife! Live the pages of National Geographic for yourself: see animals, birds and flowers that you have only imagined. Watch sunsets like you've never seen. Explore an ancient land that was inhabited by the earliest Homo sapiens. Most visitors experience the African safari via the seat of a truck or behind a protected compound. With Big Mountain you'll experience and observe Africa on its own terms, riding your mountain bike on million-year old elephant paths. Don't be surprised if Africa gets a grip on you and never let's go…
Join us on this trip of a lifetime where we'll be hosted by the most experienced local guides, wildlife-tracking specialists from Botswana and South Africa. Safety is our number one concern on this trip and our guides ride with a .458 slung over their shoulder, just in case. On this adventure our bikes will allow us to get closer to the natural wonders of this land while our guides educate us every pedal stroke of the way.
This trip is not a race, but a true adventure. We will ride the majority of the time but we'll also spend some time viewing game via Land Rovers where we can get up close to lion, hyena, leopard and more.Nights are spent in hotels, a remote luxury lodge and luxury camping where we sleep under the stars.and take turns on night watch, keeping the fire stoked and listening to the night sounds of nocturnal life in an ancient land. This trip is limited to 6 participants. Join us for an experience that you will never forget.
