This was way above all expectations! GS Africa is not the usual rental company, it’s an agency providing a complete experience service with custom route proposal, hotel booking, bike and equipment rental; and lots of tips & advices. You can come and blindly trust the team: just have to relax and enjoy the turn-key trip based on your preferences.
[November 2025] My come-back… very last minute. I’ve requested for a 3-days trip to the North and testing the brand new BMW F800 GS, what a blast! After a quick chat to understand what I’m looking for, 48h later I arrived at the agency and received the final route, hotel vouchers, bike ready-to-ride with the extra side bags and rental protection equipment.
The view is amazing, especially Bainskloof Pass; and the team has been super helpful as usual!
[December 2024] My 1st time, and it was really hard to leave the agency and return the bike 🥺. Thanks to GS Africa’s team, I ticked 2 activities from my very long bucket list:
1st long solo road-trip: ✅ incredible landscapes, traveling 1800 km from Cape Town, Garden Route to Knysna, and back via the ocean route + 2500 km between Durban, Sodwana Bay, Drakensberg, etc…
trying heavier bikes that I’ve never ridden before: ✅ BMW G 310 GS, Yamaha Ténéré 700, and KTM 790 Adventure + some gravel and off-road tracks…
So many souvenirs, so many faces and lovely conversations after those 4300 km in South Africa!
From the bottom of my heart ❤️, I want to thank again everyone that I’ve met and helped. I felt grateful for your support, flexibility, and services. I have to mention of course:
Candi-Lee that took care of my crazy difficult rental program (3 bikes, starting from Cape Town, and returning 3 weeks later to Johannesburg Airport)
Petreaux for the wonderful route, stops and visits: visit ostriches farm, diving cage with the sharks, see the pinguins, etc.
Keegan for the amazing riding experience with mixed terrains, bringing the 790 Adventure outside of the boring tar.
Maybe a 3rd time ;)
