Routes:
Routes may change depending on road conditions, weather conditions, riding level of the group, motorcycle repair or roof, etc.
We are very careful to stick to the planned route, but unexpected actions may arise to ensure continuity and the highest level of travel. One should use understanding and patience in such cases because they may happen.
Meals:
Kosher options, it is important to remember that countries in the southern continent of Africa do not advocate kosher options and cuisine when. If so and depending on the level of kashrut, it can be managed. But we do not adhere to strictly kosher cuisine in Africa Moto Tours.
