Gearing up for the 2024-25 Season

New trips and old favorites

As I write this, Matt and the gang are heading south, on their way to Zanzibar for our second annual Coast to Coast trip. While I have been following along with envy, I have also been working on our schedule for the end of this year into next, and that has given me plenty to look forward to. We have non-riding trips to Cape Verde and Mauritania, and plenty of two-wheeled tours to keep us busy, including a new 2-week, 4-country trip in January 2025, covering Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau and Guinea. We will be putting more trips online in the weeks to come, but you can see the current line-up here. As always, holler if you are interested in particular trips or dates that are not already listed.

See you on the road,
Matt and Phil

Trips and Tours

Immersive travel experiences that allow you to discover West Africa on its own terms.

Whether it’s on a scooter, walking with camels, or in a 4×4, we are on an unending journey to learn more about this under-visited corner of the world. Join one of our tours for a unique and unforgettable travel experience. See our calendar of trips here. 

Scooter Trips

The bikes are easy to ride and operate. They are not particularly fast, and that’s the point. 

Imagine feeling the breeze on your skin. Seeing birds flying overhead and monkeys darting across the road. Imagine being able to stop wherever and whenever you want for a photo, or to strike up a conversation with a local. The bikes give you the freedom to travel at your own pace. We offer multi-country scooter trips of varying lengths, from three days to ten weeks.

Memories for a lifetime

Whether you join us for a scooter trip or a classic tour, our approach to travel is the same.

Classic Tours

Adventure, discovery, unscripted moments. Our tours are all about unfiltered exploration.

We offer everything from tailor made tours to small group trips with set itineraries. Whether you want to go on a surf holiday to some of the best breaks in the region, discover local culture and history at one of many annual festivals, or observe increasingly rare wildlife, we have something for everyone. Our excellent network of drivers, guides and hosts have become like family over the years. They would be thrilled to invite you into their world.
