Descrizione
Explore the Rau Forest on a guided bike tour from Moshi. Cycle through sugar cane plantations, visit a local family for lunch, and stop at the old railway station for a cold Kilimanjaro beer.
Meet your guide and begin your adventure by riding through the TPC sugar cane plantation area, passing small farms and houses. Cycle past schools, mosques, and churches, and stop at the nearby rice fields. If you wish, lend a helping hand to the field workers and gain a better understanding of how much hard work goes into one sack of rice.
Enriched with this intense experience, visit a local family for lunch. Rice is one of the main components of meals in Tanzania, and you will have the chance to taste it at their house in a traditional meal called Pilau. Enjoy the hospitality of the local family while you sit on their veranda and share a meal and thoughts about life with them.
After lunch, continue the bike ride through the Rau Forest, a natural beauty just behind the city of Moshi. Watch out for colobus monkeys in the tree crowns with their long fluffy tails. As you cycle through this never-ending jungle, listen carefully to the animal sounds.
Your last stop of the day is at the old railway station, remains from the German colonial time. Feel like you are on a 1900s film set and sense the bustling energy this magical place used to have roughly a hundred years ago. With a little bit of luck, have the best view of Kilimanjaro while sipping a cold Kilimanjaro beer from the rail station bar, reflecting on today’s incredible adventure.
