Our Victoria Falls Cycle, showcases the sights and sounds of Victoria Falls, one of the seven natural wonders of the world and the historic colonial Victoria Falls Hotel. Cycle the banks of the mighty Zambezi river, encounter Africa's wildlife, enjoy stunning views of the rainbow-covered falls, and to top it all, ride onto the world famous Victoria Falls Bridge with unsurprising views of the spectacular wonder. We begin our signature cycle from the iconic Victoria Falls Hotel, built in 1904. It boasts a private pathway to the Falls and guests from far and wide gather here for High Tea - with freshly baked scones, cake and pastries and cucumber sandwiches on the menu!

After meeting your Bike & Saddle guide, the adventure begins and we make our way out to Zambezi Drive, keeping an eye out for impala, warthog, monkeys, baboons, an abundant of bird life and even the mighty elephant! We break along the way at scenic viewpoints, alongside the perennial Zambezi, hardly believing that this seemingly placid and innocuous river will be transformed into a terrifying torrent of water a few kilometers downstream!

We continue onto the Big Tree, a massive and ancient Baobab which is over a thousand years old, as our guide explains the unique fauna and flora of the region. From here on to the leafy, tree-lined suburbs and then into Chinotimba Township, where we get a sense of local customs and culture. We wander through the bustling market as our guide points out the different fruit and vegetables, and we visit a local church, clinic and school, seeing a side of Victoria Falls that is not on most tourist itineraries. For many a guest this is a highlight. An optional extra includes a walking tour of the Victoria Falls Rain forest Park on the return leg of the cycle. Appreciate the transcendental beauty of the Falls up close on this walk, and marvel at the rainbow that stretches across the foaming torrent of water - the perfect place to capture the moment on camera! After the walk we cycle along the private pathway back to the Victoria Falls Hotel as the sun sets below the plume of spray - there really is no better way to experience the majestic Falls!

We start out at daybreak and transfer to our starting point on Signal Hill, high above the city on the slopes of the iconic Table Mountain. We meander down the mountainside, past the imposing Lions Head, with magnificent views of Cape Town all along the way.

We wind our way through the upmarket seaside suburbs of Clifton and Camps Bay, home to Cape Town’s prime real estate and a selection of postcard-perfect beaches. We make our way along the stunning Atlantic Seaboard, through the village of Bakoven, nestled at the foot of the famous Twelve Apostles. We then transfer over the mountains to the lower slopes of Chapman's Peak, one of Africa's most beautiful mountain passes. After an invigorating cycle up the pass, we break for a gourmet picnic lunch with amazing views of sky and hues of blue and green ocean.

Refreshed after lunch, we shuttle back into town past the rolling Constantia vineyards, before enjoying a guided walk of the Bo-Kaap. There we get to learn about the history, hardships, and accomplishments of the Cape Moslem community. We stop at a local's residence to sample traditional Cape Malay cuisine, such as samoosas, bobotie (curried mince with egg custard) and much more, while learning about the fascinating history of the area – a unique and exclusive experience which will stay with you for a long time!

Cape Mountain Zebra, baboons, ostrich, eland, red hartebeest, bontebok and many more antelope as well as abundant bird life and even lynx and genet may be spotted amongst the bush scrub. Make sure to be careful of the tortoises crossing the road! The sensational vistas of the shimmering Atlantic Ocean beneath craggy cliffs and sheltering secluded beaches will simply take your breath away - if the biking doesn't!

After an invigorating ride through the nature reserve, we break for lunch at the scenic tidal pools of Buffels Baai (Buffalo Bay), keeping an eye out for Southern Right Whales during season (June - November). Here we enjoy a signature gourmet picnic wish fresh bread, dips, fruit and cold meats and perhaps even a glass of bubbly - a just reward for our efforts!

Step back in time and retrace the history of viniculture in South Africa by visiting the country's foremost wine estates in the lush Constantia valley. Meander through the rolling vineyards on your bicycle, learning first hand about the various vintages, all the while framed by the brooding backdrop of the mighty Table Mountain. The valley also boasts an array of award-winning restaurants that are consistently voted among the best in the world.

Our trademark Eco-active adventure starts in the country's oldest estate which dates to 1685 and is often referred to as “the birthplace of South African wine”. Historic manor houses and museums pay testament to the heritage of this region, with a private cellar tour and tasting by special arrangement. We cycle through the vineyards themselves, with panoramic views over the valley and False Bay where the Atlantic Ocean hits sun kissed beaches. A number of renowned estates are included, with the chance to meet the sommelier and sample some of the best wines this country has produced, including the notable Vin de Constance, which was personally requested by none other than Napoleon Bonaparte!

For a leisurely bicycle tour of the Cape Winelands off the beaten track, the picturesque Devon Valley in the heart of Stellenbosch offers an exhilarating eco-biking tour with spectacular wine and gourmet food experience.
Hosted in conjunction with the finest wine estates in the valley, AND Stellenbosch's No.1 Restaurant (as voted by Trip Advisor guests), Clos Malverne, the experience is sheer pedal pleasure and allows rookie riders and serious dirt hounds alike, to explore the scenic back roads of the valley, soak up the awe-inspiring views and indulge in a memorable wine and food experience.
This exclusive trail meanders along a private 20-kilometre, mainly off-road path through the heart of the valley. The trip can be adapted to suit all levels of experience and fitness.

It provides the perfect pollution-free outing for the whole family; adventure seekers in need of a more adrenalin-filled winelands experience; or groups of friends who want to soak up the beauty of the valley and invigorate the sense before settling down for a languid lunch. Or why not swap a boring day at the office for an exhilarating team building exercise amidst the vines.

The great thing about this adventure is its flexibility. If you want to ride all day, go for it. If you want to potter around on your bike stopping at every vineyard for a look-and-see that is also cool. And if you are a real wine aficionado, no worries, the quality of the local produce is bound to impress.

Included in the day's experience is the soul-quenching outride; a coffee break at tranquil The Devon Valley Hotel served up with breathtaking views of the valley, and a four course pairing, gourmet lunch at Clos Malverne’s, one of the regions top restaurants, with sweeping views of the Devon Valley.
