Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee Tour With Banana Wine
Moshi, Tanzania
Nestled in the patchwork foothills of magnificent Kilimanjaro lies the beautiful village of Materuni, home to our Chagga friends and famous for its aromatic, rich coffee. On this fragrant and fun day out you’ll hike the short but challenging route to the Materuni Falls and you can stand under the waters as they cascade into a tranquility pool that’s safe for bathing. And you’ll want to jump straight in – after getting sweaty (ok, glowing) from your hike, there’s nothing more soothing than floating in the cool waters from Kilimanjaro mountain.
On the way to/from the waterfalls you will get a chance to get in a local bar for Banana wine/beer testing.
Next you'll get a chance to make your own cup of coffee the proper way and you’ll find out the secret to the perfect cup of coffee from the local Chagga people. Enjoy your local hot lunch then we will say goodbye and start going back to Moshi town from this memorable experience !
