TDA 2013 – An Extra Rest Day in Aswan

With the 2012 Tour d’Afrique now in its final stretches, we begin to look towards the 11th annual tour.  

The 2013 tour details are now online – with prices, and dates, and all the juicy details.

With two rest days in Aswan, Abu Simbel will now be within reach for our cyclists if they wish to arrange a tour to this stunning site.
