Trip Summary
Try our short daytrip with a CoffeeTour/Waterfalls Hike & Swim.
Itinerary
The Chagga tribe is a large tribe which is the predominant tribe in the Mt Kilimanjaro area. While most of the Chagga have adapted fully to a modernized lifestyle and customs, in small villages you can still find the traditional way of life.
You will be driven to a small village on Mt Kilimanjaro just outside of the national park. You will visit a small banana farm and small coffee farm, learning hands-on how coffee is cultivated and processed. You will go on a short hike to a wonderful waterfall where you will have a chance for a swim if you like, or to just relax and enjoy nature.
The path to the waterfalls is steep so footwear other than flip-flops is strongly recommended. The local village women will prepare a traditional Chagga lunch for you. Afterwards you will be returned to your hotel. This is perhaps the most popular daytrip combining nature and local culture. This tour lasts 4 - 6 hours.
