ABOUT

WELCOME

Michelle and Staff welcomes you to Bike X Cape. Our passion for motorcycles, nature, open spaces and South African hospitality inspired us to share, with you, the amazing Tankwa Karoo from where you can access miles of gravel roads to the Cederberg, Sutherland,and Northern Cape.

Based in the Tankwa Karoo open space, a short 2½ hour drive from Cape Town, and a mere 10km from the legendary Tankwa Padstal,  Bike X Cape offers various affordable accommodation options. For the adventurous book into one of our "semi-glamping" spacious tents complete with 100% cotton bedding and towels.  If you prefer a bit more comfort, solid walls and your own bathroom, then one of our modestly furnished rooms in the traditional clay and latte cottages will be the answer to a call for relaxation.

Traversing vast open landscapes and remote locations for a day can leave one rather hungry and thirsty.  Join us in the Bike X Cape boma under the galactic Karoo skies with lamb chops sizzling on an open fire.  Cold drinks and Ice are always available.   

You will experience personal attention to detail and our friendly staff are always available to lend a hand.

Traveling the Tankwa Karoo is the antidote for the city quandary, it moves the soul and brings the Universe into perspective. See the horizon, hear the silence, smell the fresh air, ride  gravel roads through ancient landscapes, through desert, mountains and National Parks. View wildlife, meet the inimitable Karoo characters and visit the lost little towns of the Cape.
