What to expect

  1. Moshi
    30m
    Pick-up and drive to Materuni village: We will pick you up directly from your accommodation in Moshi town. Meet your professional guide, load into our comfortable vehicle, and enjoy a quick briefing on the day's exciting itinerary as we prepare to head toward the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro.
  2. Pass by
    Registration: Sit back and enjoy the views as we leave the urban center behind. We drive through vibrant, lush green landscapes and winding mountain roads, catching glimpses of traditional Chagga residential areas and remote hillside communities.
  3. Materuni Waterfalls
    1h 30m · Admission ticket included
    Hiking: Embark on a scenic 40-minute hike through valleys, banana groves, and rainforested terrain. Your guide will point out local flora and fauna along the way. Arriving at the roaring, 80-meter-high Materuni Waterfall, you will have plenty of time to take stunning photos, enjoy the cool mountain mist, or even take a refreshing swim in the natural plunge pool.
  4. 1h · Admission ticket included
    Visit a local, family-run Chagga coffee farm. You will participate actively in the entire process—from harvesting and peeling raw coffee beans to traditional mortar-and-pestle crushing, roasting, and grinding. The experience is accompanied by rhythmic, joyful local songs and dances. It concludes with a fresh, organic cup of coffee alongside a traditional Tanzanian lunch.
  5. Mailisita paradise waterfalls
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Next, we trek a little further into the dense, green valley to discover a lesser-known hidden gem: Paradise Waterfall. Frequented by fewer tourists, this serene spot offers an incredibly tranquil atmosphere, pristine waters, and beautiful opportunities to spot local wildlife like black-and-white Columbus monkeys in the canopy above.
  6. Chemka Hot spring Tour
    1h 30m · Admission ticket included
    We descend from the mountain slopes and drive into the semi-arid plains to discover a subterranean paradise. Chemka Hot Springs features crystal-clear, turquoise geothermal waters surrounded by massive fig trees. Spend your time swimming in the warm, refreshing pools, flying off the rope swing, or enjoying a natural "fish pedicure" while relaxing after your hikes.
  7. Moshi
    45m
    Drop-off and Farewell: After a fulfilling day of hiking and cultural immersion, we drive back down the mountain slopes. Relax during the comfortable journey back to town, where our driver will drop you off right at your hotel doorstep.
