Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your accommodation by your Serengeti Wildlife Safaris guide, followed by a scenic drive to Materuni Village, located in the lush foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro. This day trip offers the perfect blend of cultural immersion, natural beauty, and light hiking, ideal for travelers looking for a unique, off-the-beaten-path experience.
Upon arrival at the Chagga village of Materuni, you’ll be welcomed by friendly locals and guided through a coffee-making tour—from bean to cup. Learn how traditional Chagga coffee is cultivated, roasted, and brewed as you enjoy a fresh cup surrounded by banana and coffee plantations. It’s a hands-on, aromatic experience that gives you a real taste of local life.
After the coffee tour, embark on a guided nature hike through lush greenery, local farms, and tropical rainforest trails toward the stunning Materuni Waterfalls—one of the tallest in the region at over 80 meters high. Along the way, your guide will share insights about local plants, birds, and Chagga traditions. Once at the falls, take time to relax, take photos, or even enjoy a refreshing dip in the natural pool beneath the cascading water.
After your visit, hike back to the village and enjoy a traditional hot Chagga lunch, often served with local dishes like banana stew or ugali. In the late afternoon, begin your scenic drive back to Arusha, either to your accommodation or directly to the airport, marking the perfect end to your Tanzanian Cultural tours.
