World Cycling Championship Rwanda

Did you see Pogacar excel in Zurich?! Not normal, right?! What is also not normal is a World Cycling Championship on the African continent. A unique experience, you have to be there. The World Cycling Championship will take place in Kigali, Rwanda in 2025. On September 27 and 28 we will cheer on the women and men on the Wall of Kigali.

We expect a lot of interest for this special World Cup. It is therefore important to book quickly. On site, we work together with a reliable local partner who has already reserved all accommodations for us. You still have to book the flight yourself. Don't wait too long with that either! From Brussels it is possible to fly directly to Kigali. From Amsterdam you fly to Rwanda with 1 stopover.

If you pay the travel sum in one go, you will receive a €75 discount.

About the journey

That is why we are going to do more than just watch the World Cycling Championship. We will cycle the World Championship course ourselves, we will visit Kigali, go graveling for 5 days, go on safari for 1 day and visit a local development project that we support with the organization of this trip.

  • World Cycling Championships
