Mooie fietstocht bij Moshi. Mooie fietstocht door het bos (apen gezien), langs de rijstvelden en tussen de huizen door. Perfecte lunch. Mountain bikes groot genoeg voor langere mensen. Echt een mooie manier om het gebied te zien en te beleven. Sympathieke gids! Rit was goed te doen, ook zonder veel mountainbike ervaring.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Fantastic biking tour Tanzania Today we had a great biking tour from Hemedi. He is a great optimistic guide who speaks good English and informs you during the tour about the local people, environment, cultures and some animals. We enjoyed a great biking tour across the corn and rise fields, small villages and the forrest. The mountainbikes were of great quality. We will remember this activity and want to recommend it to all sportive tourists!!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Moshi biking tour We (my wife and I) have had an amazing biking tour around Moshi with our tourguide Hemedi! We enjoyed a two day tour. The first day we took our mountainbikes through Rau Forest Reserve, where Hemedi told us a lot about the different trees and the animals that lived there. From the forest we went over the Rice fields and towards the TPC sugar plantation. It was incredibly big and very impressive so see from our bike. Halfway our biketour, we enjoyed the very tasteful lunch Hemedi brought for us. During our lunch it was nice to have a chat with Hemedi, from whom we learned a lot about the way things went around Moshi. The second day we enjoyed a trip on the edge of the sugar plantation down the river. Some parts of the tour were a bit steeper, but with positive encouragement from Hemedi and the friendly people who we passed down we road we were able to make it. The two day tour was a very cool experience which I will definitely won’t forget soon. Special thanks to Hemedi for making our experience so great!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Well-organized tours with great value for money We had a very good experience with Bicycle Trail Tanzania in Moshi. We joined a cycling tour, a mountain bike tour, and a hike, all of which were well organized and smoothly run. The guides were reliable, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. The routes offered a good mix of scenery, local villages, and more challenging sections, which made the activities interesting without being overwhelming. We also found the price-performance ratio very fair, especially considering the quality of the guiding, equipment, and overall organization. A solid choice for anyone looking to explore the Moshi/Kilimanjaro area in an active way.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Best experiences with Hemedi 👏🏽 We were a group of 4 who had been recommended this tour . We all had a fabulous time. The tour guide Hemedi was knowledgeable and engaging and brought energy to the group. I loved the fact we went to a popular destination but also many places we would have never seen. Thanks Hemedi for a brilliant start to our stay in Moshi.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()
