Private Cycling The Cradle Of Humankind In Game Reserve

Great experience. We wanted to do something a bit out of the city. The bikes were good and well maintained. Shane was very patient…. as I am not very fit! But I was keen to see some wildlife. It was a beautiful place to cycle and we saw giraffes and wildebeest as well as impalas and monkeys. Shane slowed his speed to mine which was much appreciated, and my husband was able to go on ahead sometimes. A very enjoyable day for us both!

The Cycling the Cradle of Humankind in Game Reserve with Shane is an unforgettable cycling experience. Shane takes care of every detail to make a stress free time. The Trek mountain bike is well maintained and glides over the varied terrain at the Cradle Moon Park where there is a chance to see a variety of wild animals up close.

My mom and I had a great time with our guide, Samantha! She was so fun and knowledgeable about the animals, the landscape, and the country of South Africa. We were able to get very close to the giraffes and wildebeests and still felt safe. Big thanks to Samantha and Shane for a great morning in a beautiful place!

Very communicative and fun to be with. He at one time was my camera guy. Had such a wonderful time with him. I’ll recommend him to anyone

Shane is a great guy, easy to talk to and knowledgable of the area. He adapted the cycling tour according to my level of fitness. Definitely a clear recommendation to book a toor with Shane!

If you want to cycle near Joburg this is the one to do. Very good bike, great cycle tour, Shane has lots of interesting stories to talk about, and the beer at the end made it the perfect morning outing!

Shane is a fantastic guide. He is able to tailor the tour to your needs. Bikes and equipment were provided and customised to my height. Shane is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, cycling, the country and an all round amazing person to spend the day with. I'll definitely book again!

A nice relaxed ride and some game viewing en route made for a pleasant morning out. I was expecting a longer ride of at least 30-35 km. An easy outing and no cycling expertise required.

Awesome morning bike ride!!!! Informative, up close and fun! Shane was engaging, kept it to our level of biking and explained many aspects of the park and points of interest on the rides to and from!

I had a great time riding around Cradle Moon with Shane. Bikes were excellent and Shane was a tremendous guide.

We spent around 3 hours on fine trails inside the reserve with great views of a ton of different animals, e.g. zebra, giraffe and sable antelope. The bikes were excellent. Shane is reliable, super friendly and knowledgeable. The trip was definitely the highlight of my 7 days in Pretoria. Thanks, Shane!!!

Picked up on time from where I was staying by Shane who is a friendly and informative tour guide. Bikes were in great condition. Initially I felt out of my comfort zone as I'm used to riding a road bike but relaxed into it and loved it. Cycling through the reserve and being so close to the animals was amazing! Cycling the Cradle with Shane was one of my favourite experiences during my holiday to South Africa.

Fantastic trip! Really enjoyed cycling with Shane, would recommend to anyone. The location is full of singletrack and good road options as well.

Biking through a game reserve, being up close to incredible animals, and getting to see more and more of beautiful South Africa. Shane was an awesome guide and made it a truly amazing experience!

This was an amazing and unique experience. Shane put together a ride suited to our abilities and interests that combined seeing many different animals at close range with exciting single track mountain biking through the beautiful reserve. His knowledge of South Africa and biking ensures that you will have a great time regardless of your biking abilities.

Today I did the cradle cycle tour with Shane. It was a nice mountainbike tour in a private nature reserve. Shane picked collected me at my hotel, provided the bikes and water and dropped me at my hotel afterwards again. The tour itself is very variable. Depending on your own fitness Shane will choose a path that suits you. We also have come across some wild animals and had te opportunity to take some real cool and close photos. I would really recommend this tour for someone who is looking for a nice and active morning activity!

Highly recommended for anyone looking for something a bit different to do and enjoys being on bike. Shane was a great guide and a good laugh. Communication was also great as soon as be booked. I booked for myself and my sister and we had a really fun afternoon. Bikes were good quality and in great condition, he was incredibly patient with us, my sister hadn’t been on a bike in years but he was able to make her feel confident on the bike and was brilliant at picking appropriate route based on experience and confidence on the bikes. Riding past wildlife in the reserve was fantastic and we would definitely book again. Even for experience gravel/mountain bikers - it was really good fun.

I had a brilliant time with Shane. Great ride, organisation was perfect and the trails and roads really enjoyable. Will definitely ride again when I'm next in South Africa.

Had a grest trip with Shane biking Cradle Moon Reserve! He has a vast knowledge about flora and fauna - you can learn a lot. Yet, the trips are sportive - just as I expected. He really caters to your individual wishes and needs.
