Great tour with a fantastic pair (guide/driver). Equipment and bike are in very good state. It worth going with Red Dirt. 200km/+2100m:

The two weeks.spent biking through Uganda/Rwanda were exceptional. The route was excellent, both from a biking perspective, but also so far as showcasing the best of both countries. The organization was top notch, from selecting accommodation with heaps of character, to the support from Robin at the office. However, last, and most certainly not least, both Francis our Mtb guide and Brian, were absolute gems and such great guides and guys. Thank you guys for making this trip everything it was!

We did the 15 day mountain biking trip from Fort Portal in Uganda to Kinun on Lake Kivu in Rwanda. It was an unbelievable experience with great mountain biking: single track, jeep track, dirt roads - minimal tar road. Red Dirt are a very professional company - thanks Francis and Brian for making our trip memorable. Red Dirt showcased the areas that we cycled through exceptionally well - amazing accommodation as well as accommodation locations. We had an absolute blast cycling through places like the crater lakes, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Bwindi Impenetrable forest to name a few. Highly recommend this cycling trip!!!!!

Red Dirt Uganda enabled me to have an incredible and life changing experience ! Robin Josso coordinated my trip so carefully and considerately . I was travelling alone and wanted to combine the cycling with climbing Marguerita Peak in the Rwenzori mountains . The professional services of the treking guides and then the guides for the bike ride were outstanding . Accomadation and food was first class ,and transport coordination was brilliant !

We went on a 6-day bike packing adventure with Red Dirt Uganda, which was customized to our wishes. RDU did an amazing job and prepared a terrific route of ~350 kilometers, with amazing guesthouses and good gravel bikes! Their service - in person and digitally - is really good. If you need something or if something is missing, they are very accessible! They also very eager to become even better - asking for feedback a lot and take it to heart. 10/10 would recommend!

I had a great time with Lawrence exploring the peninsula by bike. The opportunity to get out and see the local community and get in a bit of exercise after several days of flying was welcomed. I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see Entebbe in a different way... and get some great views of Lake Victoria

We did the Lake Victoria one day cycle tour with Lawrence and had the best time. It was raining in the morning so the tracks were slippery and muddy which made for a few small falls and lots of laughs! It was so nice to be off the beaten tourist track, engaging with the local people in the villages and trying all the local foods together. Lawrence was full of interesting stories and useful tips on how to best manoeuvre the mountain bikes over the muddy terrain. This tour was definitely one of our highlights of our journey through East Africa!

It was great! James was an amazing guide and we had a lot of fun. It was really hot but that’s part of the experience 😊 The bikes were great and top notch. We really enjoyed it and definitely recommend it a 100%.

Cool way to spend the weekend! When a friend visited from Cape Town he wanted to do a tour within Kampala. Red Dirt was recommended to him. We met our guide at 8 am for the short boat ride across Lake Victoria from Ggaba to Bole / Mukono. He organised the boat rides, kept us safe and ordered the all-important rolex. Take your bike - or Red Dirt can lend you one - for a 20+ km bike ride. I loved the stretch of village trails. You would never think that you are so close to Kampala. If you're looking for a bit of an adventure without having to travel far, I recommend this half day tour. It's a great way to unwind and an ideal way to get a glimpse of rural Ugandan life. I came back feeling super relaxed... (and dusty and sweaty 😆) Alternatively, if you have your own bike, you can take part in their sister company Bike Shop Uganda's free Sunday bike rides.

We had a great bike trip! Zaga was our guide and he was friendly and made sure everything went smoothly. We loved seeing the farms and houses and stopping for a rolex. I would recommend starting earlier in the morning to beat the heat.

We rented our bikes with Red Dirt for two morning safari bike tours in the surroundings of Lake Mburo national park. We did not go into the park with the bikes (which costs another $30 per bike on top of the parkfees; we did visit the park with our car though) as outside of the park there are far more tracks of the main roads and there is also lots of wildlife to see. Red Dirt had arranged a very friendly and knowledgeable guide for us and, last but not least, the bikes where of a very high quality!

I reached out Red Dirt Uganda with the desire to have a gravel adventure from Kampala. Thies and the team were incredible and the put together a destination ride complete with a boat shuttle, remote roads and villages, a coffee stop, and a waterfall. This trip was one of my top highlights from my time in Kampala.

We did a fantastic 3 day cycling on gravel and other red dirt roads around and in Lake Mburo National Park in Uganda. The guides know a lot of trails, both relatively smooth gravel/'murram' roads as well as single tracks that are rocky and hilly (and thorny, so good that we have spare tubes, tyre repairs and tubeless tyres for those). Both inside and outside of the park, we saw a lot of wildlife - so actually the ride in the park is not really needed except if you want to see giraffes (we saw plenty of zebra and antilopes outside of the park, too). We also absolutely loved the Rwakobo Rock eco-friendly accomodation: it’s one of the best we’ve ever seen in Uganda. The wonderfully friendly staff, the nice food, the fabulous views from the restaurant and pool, etc - the experience of climbing up the hill with the bikes then arriving at that pool to freshen up is amazing!

What a fantastic and wonderful bike tour we have made these past two weeks! Our group consisted of couples. We were overwhelmed bij the beauty of Uganda, the variety of the scenery (one day the savannah with a flat terrain,the next day climbing through the banana plants and villages to the rainforest) and than at once you are dazzled by the view on the top of the mountain, knowing that you’re going to ride through this beautiful scenery. The Ugandan people are very kind and cheerfully and children are greeting you everywhere “how are you?”. The program is well balanced and the rides can be made as tough as you want. So there is a challenge for everyone. We inserted several excursions which where all a good choice (game drive where we spotted lions and a leopard, trekking with the gorilla’s, a shoehorn bill boottour through the swamps, tour through Kampala on a boda boda etc etc). Expert driver Robert and great Guide Zaga made the trip extra memorable: together we had a lot of fun and we felt like a family.

IT was a wonderful, well organised trip . Beautiful surroundings, good hotels, lodges etc. Good food and the best bike guides!!!
