Our ‘wildest’ route
Love wildlife? So do we. That’s why we created a motorbike tour that embraces the best of bushveld and takes riders to find wilderness below the surface of the sea. Mozambique is a tropical heaven with wide, golden beaches, renowned scuba diving and sensational seafood. To get there, we’ll first enjoy the incredible scenery on Lake Jozini. On our way back, there’ll be wildlife waiting at the waterhole in Swaziland’s Hlane Royal National Park and lastly, a wonderland of biodiversity at St Lucia – a town that’s completely surrounded by a game reserve. Sounds pretty wild to us.
Trip Type Easy. Tar and dirt roads (weather-depending)
Location South Africa, Swaziland (The Kingdom of eSwatini) and Mozambique
