Namibia is a large country and during the two-week tour you'll travel about 2500 km. The trip is planned in such a way that guests cycle the most beautiful sections, thus avoiding long hours spent in the vehicle and spending more time on the bike in the great outdoors. The cycling is focused on off-the-beaten tracks, roads and trails. The tour follows the classic route meaning that most of the famous highlights of Namibia are experienced.
This two-week Namibia Classic Bike tour is a combination of level 1 (beginner) and 2 (intermediate). This makes it easy for relatively inexperienced but fit bikers to complete most of the biking. This allows the more serious biker to bring along a partner and their children if desired. In this regard, it is important to know that the support/back-up vehicle/s are there for 90% of the routes you'll bike, meaning that one can get into the car at any stage and that there is assistance if any problems are encountered along the way.
