Africa By Bicycle

For those seeking a green vacation, while meet people and gain a better understanding of the world, the International Bicycle Fund is sponsoring a cultural “Bicycle Africa" tour in Mali, West Africa, in November 2007. Participants will stay in rural villages, learn about day-to-day life, meet artisans, health care personnel, educators and government officials, visit historic and cultural sites, and relax on the river. Highlights of the program are visits to Mopti and Djenne, multiple markets, the fascinating enclave of the Dogon people (with its many sacred sites) and a truly extraordinary riverboat trip on the Niger River.
