Discover the culture of the Chagga tribe in Materuni Village, a short  trip from Moshi Town. Hike to spectacular 80-meter (262-feet)  waterfalls, savor a traditional lunch with a local banana beer, and  learn about and make coffee at a coffee plantation.    

 After pickup in Moshi Town or Arusha, drive to Materuni Village with  your English-speaking guide. Located just 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) from  Moshi Town, Materuni is still an authentic tribal village home to the  Chagga tribe and the last village before the Kilimanjaro National Park.  Upon arrival, register at the village office then begin your trip.  First, visit the waterfalls, which are around a 40-minute walk away. On  the way, learn about the culture of the Chagga, village life, and the  surrounding fauna and flora with your guide. Admire the breathtaking  views and, with luck, catch sight of the summit of Kilimanjaro.  When you reach the waterfalls, marvel at cascades that are more than  80-meters (262-feet) high. Take advantage of the inviting pool at the  bottom of the waterfall and take a refreshing dip. Don't forget your  swimwear!  After enjoying the scenery, slowly return to Materuni Village with your  guide. Once there, experience a traditional Chagga lunch and have the  opportunity to taste the local banana beer.  Next, the coffee experience awaits you. Learn how coffee is cultivated,  dried, roasted and further processed. Receive an invitation to help with  the grinding of the coffee, which is traditionally accompanied by  Chagga songs and dances — a fun way to immerse yourself in the local  culture. Before you say goodbye and return in the afternoon to Moshi or  Arusha, savor the coffee you made and appreciate the views of the  surrounding rainforest.
