About this trip

We will pick you up in the morning from your hotel in Arusha, Moshi or upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro/Arusha airports in a clean airconditioned vehicle and drive short distance to Materuni village. Materuni village is still an authentic tribal village home to the Chagga tribe and the last village before the Kilimanjaro National Park. First we start by a village walk to visit Materuni waterfalls, which are around a 45-minute walk away. On the way, learn about the culture of the Chagga tribe, village life, and the surrounding flora and fauna with your guide. Admire the breathtaking views and with luck, catch sight of the summit of Kilimanjaro, On the way trail can be slippery & muddy, best to have good hiking shoes with grip and a rain coat. When you reach the waterfalls, marvel at cascades that are more than 80-meters (262-feet) high.

After enjoying the scenery you slowly return with your guide to Materuni village to experience a traditional Chagga lunch and opt to taste our local banana beer.!


Coffee ceremony:

You will be invited to help with the grinding of the coffee, which is traditionally accompanied by Chagga songs and dances - a fun way to immerse yourself in the local culture, You will make your own cup of coffee using traditional ways, taste local coffee and gain knowledge about Tanzania coffee Industry. Before you say goodbye, you can savor the coffee you made and appreciate the views of the surrounding rainforest before driving to Chemka hotsprings.


Chemka/Kikuletwa hot springs:

After visiting the Materuni village your trip continues to the Chemka/Kikuletwa Hot Springs. The ride to the hot springs takes about 1:30 minutes and leads partly over bumpy slopes Enjoy a wonderful afternoon in just the way you want, in the sun dozing, chatting with the locals at the small bar, or swimming in these turquois water situated on the country side - you determine the course. We leave the hot springs in the late afternoon (just before sunset) and return relaxed to your hotel in Arusha or Moshi. Note: have swimming wear & towels


We will spend most of the time around mount Kilimanjaro and that may guarantee high chance of seeing and taking good photos of the mountain.

Eine tolle Tour! Obwohl meine Unterkunft außerhalb von Arusha lag, hat der Abhol- und Bringservice wunderbar funktioniert. Mein Guide Mpemba hat mir einen interessanten, unvergessenen Tag bereitet. Der Besuch bei den Massai und die Wanderung zu den Wasserfällen haben viel Spaß gemacht. Die Kaffeezubereitung, das Mittagessen und das Bananenbier waren sehr lecker. Vielen Dank!

Worth every penny! My guide Eliis was fantastic, he had a lot of knowledge about Maasai people and Tanzania in general, and he took some amazing pictures at the hot springs. The Maasai visit was one of the most unique things I’ve done, and they are very welcoming and friendly people

Abbiamo scelto Africapathway per visitare il villaggio Maasai. Milton, il driver, è stato sin da subito molto cordiale e disponibile. Abbiamo passato una bellissima giornata in compagnia dei Maasai imparando molto sulla loro cultura per poi andare alle sorgenti hot springs. Consigliato affidarsi a Africapathway per la loro serietà e disponibilità. Passerete giornate indimenticabili!

Mpemba was very helpful and caring. He ensured my safety when I walked to the waterfall. It was a challenging walk for me, but Mpemba helped me along the way, and I was able to enjoy the beautiful water fall.
