This has been an unforgettable experience. We have experienced Tanzania in its truest beautiful light. The riding was absolutely incredible and tailored to our level of capabilities by our amazing guide Lazarus. Alpha organized everything with impeccable precision including climbing Ol Doinyo Lengai. The accommodation was spectacular. I couldn't recommend this company enough. Kindest wishes Amber & Matt Ps Anyone who does come out and gets bike number 304, I have lovingly named it the Goat 🐐 because it took me over every type of terrain possible.
Thank you Amber and Matt for choosing us! Glad you had an amazing trip and unforgettable one, and thank you for encouraging Lazarus for a climb with you and he will never do it again as he said. Asante sana sana na Karibu tena.
In January 2025 we started with 9 motorcycles and 5 people in the escort vehicle for a 5 day adventure. We drove 5 days from Arusha - West Kilimnajaro- Pare Mountains- Usambara Mountains – Masseist Step and back to Arusha. We returned home full of impressions. It was a fantastic time. We got to know Tanzania from different sides. The food was plentiful and very good every day. The whole team was always present for us, always approachable and everyone did their best for the group, whether on the motorcycle or in the car. Already during the preparation and planning, Alpha always responded immediately to all our questions and did its best to make the trip a success for the whole group. All are very good guides, just great!! Moji has all the knowledge about motorcycles and a sensitivity for the technique of the motorcycle. John convinced our women in the escort vehicle with his cheerful manner, his knowledge of the different cultures of the country and nature with his special wildlife. All participants were enthusiastic about the accommodations and liked to take advantage of some opportunities to cool off in the pool. We were very pleased that we were able to conclude our tour on the last day with a dinner together and cozy get-together. We will definitely be back. The next trip is already planned!!! I think that speaks for itself.
The team at Motorbike Safari Tanzania was incredibly on every front. The guys were helpful, accommodating, and so friendly- it was easy to forget that we hadn't been friends for years. The diversity of terrain, from savannah to the mountains, made every day seem fresh and new. And the Tanzanian people are so warm and welcoming. As we ended each day, the lodges welcomed us with a song, a cold drink, and an escort to our rooms. And what's more, the food was amazing. This was a lifetime experience, but it won't be as I plan to do it again. It has my highest recommendation!
It's awful. Equipment is very bad, guide does not speak a word of English and promised in advance that a back-up vehicle drove which turned out not to be true. Unsafe driving on the roads of arusha and belongings were left unattended outside. Owner nowhere to be seen and not answering phone.
Unfortunately we haven’t worked with you and I’m just wondering why you are black mailing us.
I just completed a solo one-week off-road motorcycle safari in Tanzania, and it was an absolutely unforgettable experience! From the moment we set off, I was blown away by the stunning landscapes, abundant wildlife, and the sheer thrill of riding through some of the most scenic and challenging terrain in Northern Tanzania. My guide was exceptional—highly skilled, knowledgeable, and passionate about both motorcycling and the local culture. Whether navigating rugged trails, spotting wildlife, or introducing me to remote villages, he made sure every moment was both safe and exhilarating. We rode through breathtaking savannas, crossed rivers, and encountered everything from giraffes and elephants to Maasai herders going about their daily lives. This trip is perfect for anyone who loves off-road riding and wants to experience Tanzania beyond the usual tourist routes. The mix of adventure, culture, and nature was just right, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. If you’re looking for an immersive, adrenaline-filled way to see this incredible country, this is the way to do it! Asante sana Alpha & Moi
Booked this super last min as a solo traveler and it will be one of the best memories of the trip. Originally signed up for the hot spring tour but he was flexible and ended up doing a one day safari tour instead. We seen zebra, ostriches, giraffes, antelope up close. Would definitely do it again!
In short, do it! I showed up not realising that the dirt bikes were manual. Never having ridden a manual bike before, I was worried. But after some simple instructions from Alpha and a trip around the block, I got the hang of it and Moi and I set out on our adventure. And how amazing it was! We saw herds of gazelles and dazzles of zebras up close, then came across a flock of vultures feeding on a sheep's carcass. Moi drove safely all day but we still had incredible amounts of fun off road traversing northern Tanzania. Animals, rural communities, lush green plains, barren brown plains, we saw it all. Then we visited the hot springs (bring swimmers) followed by a delicious lunch. Thanks guys!
Super nice and competent Team. The Glory is a cool lady who can help you with all your needs. Goodluck, Gifty and Moi are very skilled Motorbike riders, who support you an the hard Tansanian Roads. The company provides reliable Motorbikes with very good tires which are so important on Tansanian Roads. We wormly recomand Motorbike Safari Tanzania.
Thank you, Bogi! We're thrilled that you had a great experience with our team at Motorbike Safari Tanzania. We appreciate your warm recommendation.
After watching "Africa On Two Wheels" on YT I had a feeling of what to expect. What I got was so much more: The most incredible adventure of my life. My warmest thanks to Moi (my tour guide) and to Glory (my tour manager) who both were amazing. Bikes, safety gear, accommodation, food, drinks etc.: 10/10 Service level: 10++/10 Recommendation: 100% P.S.: I didn't know until too late that they could have combined my motorbike safari with a jeep safari.

Totally recommended experience. We have visited spectacular places, we have soaked up all the local culture going to places where few people can go. The material and the motorcycles are very careful, I can't think of a better guide to carry out this experience, Goodluck has been very attentive at all times, he knows the terrain like the back of his hand and has a great sense of humor. I would repeat without thinking!
