Highlights
  • Materuni Waterfalls - Materuni is the home of the Chagga tribe and is still an authentic tribal village. This charming place is just 15km away from Moshi Town and is the last village before the Kilimanjaro National Park.

First you will visit the waterfalls, which are around a 40-minute walk away. On the way, trail can be slippery & muddy best to have good hiking boots. The views are truly breathtaking, and with some luck you will see the summit of
Kilimanjaro. When you reach the waterfalls, you will see that they are more than 80 meters high. The pool at the bottom of the waterfall is an inviting place for a refreshing swim so don’t forget your swimwear!

After having enjoyed the scenery, you slowly return with your guide to Materuni village, where you will experience a traditional Chagga lunch. You also will have the opportunity to taste our local banana beer – definitely not to be missed!

Tip: Chagga tribesmen are Tanzania’s finest brewers

Balcazar is the best! Ask for him! - Balcazar is literally one of the best, kindest guides I have ever had and you should definitely ask for him! He was super professional, right on time, and gave so much historical and cultural knowledge of Tanzania. I felt extremely safe with him as a lone female traveler and he did a great job to help me take great pictures and have a good experience. I even cut my foot on a stone by accident, and Balcazar helped make sure my foot was attended to, encouraged me, and made sure I was safe. He also helped me call some other guides I needed to touch base with in Tanzania and ensured I was safe. He is one of the best guides I have ever had. You will not regret a moment with him leading you on your journey!

Best way to spend 36 hrs in Kilimanjaro - Amazing excursion! We only had one free day in Kilimanjaro and we're so happy we chose this activity. I cannot say enough nice things about Balthazary. He was an amazing driver and guide. Showed up early for our 6:30am pickup. Provided color commentary during the drive from Arusha to Materuni. He knows so much history. The hike to the falls was wonderful. Not very strenuous, a few steep inclines but not bad at all. Balthazary pointed out unique trees, chameleons, etc along the way. The coffee tour was fun and the villagers so enthusiastic and yes- they are a mini paparazzi. They took our phones and created the most AMAZING pictures. Lunch was delicious! The hot springs was fun and relaxing. We made it back to our hotel around 4pm. Balthazary had water and coco cola for us the entire time as well. I highly recommend

Fabulous Cultural Tour with Enock! - We had a great day with our guide Enock! He was very knowledgeable and had interesting insights into the local culture. He was very helpful and accommodated all our needs including stopping to take pics of Mt Kilimanjaro as the clouds lifted! He was a fun guy to spend a day with and spoke excellent English - the best we’ve encountered so far!
