Indafrica in partnership with India Cycle Trails specialise in the non-traditional way of exploring the rich cultural heritage of India.
Our focus is on “local experiences” and interactive holidays.
We offer travel experiences from the Mighty Himalayas in the North to the Palm-fringed beaches of the South. From the Ethnic Tribes of the North-East to the colourful Thar Desert of Western India
The Indafrica India Cycle Trails Experience
From the moment your tour starts with collection from the airport to the time you depart, you will be looked after by the Indafrica India Cycle Trails team.
Each itinerary is carefully crafted to ensure that you not only see the best sights but also get an insight into Indian life at a local level. Accommodation is carefully selected to add to the experience.
Itineraries include beautiful heritage stays, well-appointed hotels and lesser-known beach resorts, boutique plantation stays and wildlife resorts and homestays.
Cycle hire is included on each tour and India cycle trails own their own fleet of cycles that set up for cycling touring in India. Find out more about your tour bike.
Most meals are included and are either eaten at your accommodation or local restaurants and cafes. On a number of days, lunches are prepared by our team, picnic style. Picnic lunches include seasonal fruits, local snacks (Samosa, Kachori, Biscuits, Namkeen), Soups, tea, coffee and soft drinks.
We also know that it is important for cyclists to stay well hydrated so we stop regularly to re-hydrate with bottled water, fruit juices. These stops also give us a chance to regroup and chat about what we have seen along the way.
