The Active Way to Travel in Tanzania: A Mix of Bike Safari, Classic Game Drives, andZanzibar Beaches
Tanzania is a country of contrasts and unforgettable experiences — from wild savannahs and towering mountains to crystal-clear beaches and vibrant local culture. While many travelers explore Tanzania through traditional safaris alone, a growing number are choosing an active approach that blends bike safaris, classic game drives, and relaxing beach time in Zanzibar. This is travel for those who want to feel, see, and experience the land — not just pass through it.

Start with a Bike Safari Adventure
There’s no better way to connect with Tanzania’s landscapes than by bike. At One Bike Tanzania,
we offer guided cycling tours that take you off the beaten path and deep into the heart of nature. Whether it’s pedaling through Arusha National Park, climbing the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, or cycling through Maasai villages and coffee farms, our bike safaris are a refreshing, sustainable, and thrilling way to experience the country.
With high-quality mountain bikes and even e-MTBs available, riders of all levels can enjoy the journey. Along the way, you’ll encounter wildlife, meet local communities, and witness stunning views that no safari vehicle can access.

Classic Safari in the Iconic Parks
After a few days of riding, it’s time to sit back and enjoy the classic safari experience. Atraditional game drive through Tanzania’s iconic parks — like Serengeti National Park, Tarangire, or Ngorongoro Crater — lets you witness the Big Five in their natural habitat.
This is a chance to balance the active part of your trip with a few days of relaxed exploration while still staying close to nature. Our team helps organize custom short safaris that pair seamlessly with the biking leg of your journey.

Wind Down in Zanzibar
No Tanzanian adventure is complete without the Indian Ocean. After days of riding and wildlife spotting, catch a short flight to Zanzibar, where white sand beaches and turquoise waters await. Whether you’re snorkeling in coral reefs, exploring Stone Town’s history, or simply relaxing on the beach, Zanzibar is the perfect finale to an active trip.
It’s the reward your legs have earned!
