The riders have completed the first day of the fourth section of the tour - 157 km from Nairobi to Namanga. Sounds as though they have an interesting week ahead of them. Tomorrow they will cross the border into Tanzania and then have three rest days to recuperate and explore!!
One day south of Nairobi, they will arrive at the border of Tanzania and immediately spot the unmistakable Mount Kilimanjaro and its smaller sibling, Mount Meru. From there, it’s a day’s pedal to the rapidly growing and vibrant city of Arusha. As the gateway to such famous attractions as Serengeti National Park, Ngorogoro Crater, and “Kili,” Arusha is East Africa’s safari capital. Here riders are given 3 days off, affording them the opportunities to experience wild Africa at its most spectacular, to shop in the local stores and markets, or simply to rest and replenish their energies.
