It is never just about the ride with Ride Down South - we stop along the way, pausing to see some of Africa`s most unique, spectacular, scenic places. This was taken at Spitzkoppe, one of Namibia`s treasures made up of granite peaks that stand out in the Namib Desert that is unlike anywhere else in the world. We spend a night nearby on our Winelands, Mountains and Magnificent Namibia tour that goes from Cape Town, South Africa, to Windhoek, Namibia.

Ride alone, together ...
We enjoy the wonderful balance between alone time and time with the group on our tours, and have alot of fun together along the way.
There is always flexibility about the needs of the individuals on each tour - whether one needs an evening alone to top up, or a meal with the gang, there are no rules on our rides.
