1Materuni Waterfalls
Discover the lush beauty of Materuni, home of the Chagga tribe and the last village before Kilimanjaro National Park. Just 15km from Moshi, this tour is perfect for Bush and Forest Explorers seeking a blend of nature and culture. Begin with a scenic 40-minute hike through rainforest trails, banana farms, and mountain views. The trail can be slippery, so good hiking boots are essential. With clear skies, you may catch a glimpse of Mount Kilimanjaro. At the Materuni Waterfalls, cascading over 80 meters, enjoy the serene atmosphere or take a refreshing dip in the natural pool—don’t forget your swimwear! Return to the village for a delicious traditional Chagga lunch and a taste of local banana beer. Then, join a hands-on coffee experience, where you’ll roast and brew beans grown right on the slopes of Kilimanjaro. This immersive journey is ideal for those who love trekking, culture, and connection to the land.

The adventure doesn't end at the waterfall. Next, dive into the Materuni coffee experience, where you’ll learn how coffee is grown, harvested, dried, roasted, and brewed — all at the source on the lush slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. Join local Chagga farmers in the process, and take part in traditional grinding, often accompanied by singing and dancing, making it a fun and interactive way to connect with the culture. This is not just a demonstration — you’ll be invited to grind, roast, and brew your own cup of freshly made Chagga coffee. As you sip the result of your work, take in the peaceful surroundings of the village and rainforest views, a perfect end to a rich cultural journey. Ideal for explorers who appreciate authentic, hands-on experiences, this coffee tour blends nature, tradition, and hospitality in one unforgettable visit.

After your coffee adventure in Materuni, the journey continues to the Kikuletwa Hot Springs, a hidden geothermal oasis nestled in the savannah. The drive takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes, partly along rugged, off-road trails — a fun ride for true explorers. Once there, spend your afternoon your way: swim in the crystal-clear, turquoise waters, soak in the sun, or mingle with friendly locals at the small bar under the shade of ancient fig trees. Whether you're diving from rope swings or simply relaxing, this is the perfect spot to unwind in nature. We depart just before sunset, returning you to your hotel in Arusha or Moshi, refreshed and recharged. Note: Bring swimwear, a towel, and a sense of adventure!
