This unforgettable coastal motorcycle tour begins in the historic island town of Lamu, where Swahili culture and centuries-old architecture set the tone for an adventure rich in both scenery and history. Riding south along the Kenyan coast, the route winds through the pristine beaches and turquoise waters of Watamu and Kilifi before reaching the vibrant city of Mombasa.
From there, the journey continues to Diani and Msambweni, with long stretches of breathtaking coastal off-road tracks that hug the shoreline. A highlight of the tour is a dolphin safari in Wasini National Park, where riders trade their bikes for a boat to explore the marine wonders of the Indian Ocean.
Crossing into Tanzania, the road leads through the playful coastal landscape of northern Tanzania, passing through Tanga before reaching the unique Saadani National Park—one of the only places in the world where you might spot elephants and lions right on the beach. The adventure doesn’t end there, as the route carves through the mystical forests north of Bagamoyo before emerging in the humid, bustling energy of Dar es Salaam.
This tour allows you to see the nearly the entirety of the Kenyan coast line covering all the mayor highlights along the way. It is full of off-road action, Swahili culture, nature, beautiful beaches and plenty of sun.
This tour is not for the faint-hearted, offering a mix of exhilarating coastal tracks, rugged off-road sections, and unpredictable terrain. Riders will navigate everything from smooth tarmac to deep sand, rocky trails, and swampy stretches. The coastal off-road routes between Msambweni and Tanga can be particularly challenging, with sections of soft sand that test balance and control. Crossing through Saadani National Park adds an extra layer of adventure, as riders must stay alert for wildlife while tackling rough, unmaintained trails. The final stretch through the dense forests north of Bagamoyo is humid and remote, with muddy tracks that can turn treacherous after rain. The coastal heat ensures that this ride is as demanding as it is unforgettable.
