Ride Down South

Ride Down South Epic motorcycling adventures in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and further north into East Africa, riding the legendary Honda Africa Twin or Transalp 750s.

Join an arranged adventure or create your own. Ride Down South is owned and operated by Andrew Vaughan. We love adventure, we love people and we love exploring our beautiful continent on bikes. Ride Down South was formed out of realisation that there’s something unique and magical about riding a motorcycle through Africa. We want to show off the places we have grown to love and are still in awe of

as we’ve explored this part of the continent. We want to make this kind of experience possible and affordable for those who are keen on a new kind of adventure.

“The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”

One of our stops along the journey between Cape Town and Kruger National Park is the Nelson Mandela Capture Site near Howick, KwaZulu Natal.

Nelson Mandela was arrested on 5 August 1962 at this spot after which he spent 27 years of his life in prison as a political prisoner. The Nelson Mandela Capture Site commemorates this moment in history with a visitor centre and a world renowned sculpture.
