Unlike many other Maasai villages in the area, which were built for tourism purposes only, Kambi ya Chooka is an authentic village founded by local Maasai. We start early in the morning together with our English speaking guide. The journey to the village takes about an hour. Just behind Moshi we leave the asphalt road and continue on rough slopes. The path passes next to dried river beds and mighty baobab trees, along the way we meet the first Masai. We visit a traditional Maasai village and therefore ask you to be a respectful guest. Maasai are very open and communicative, however, how much they will open up to you also depends on you and your social skills. Our English-speaking guide will assist you and translate into Kimassai, as the Maasai themselves usually do not speak English. As you walk around the village with your guide, you have the opportunity to chat with the Masai and learn interesting facts about traditional Masai culture and medicine. You will also be invited to taste local Masai tea and have the opportunity to visit a Masai house. A small snack is provided in between. Afterwards, your guide will take you on a small bush hike, where you will also collect firewood for the evening. Later, by the fire, you can listen to the exciting stories of the Maasai and admire the women during a traditional dance. Maybe you are even asked to dance, don't be shy. With the following dinner we let the day end. You will camp for the night at a beautiful site near the village. We want to respect the privacy of the Maasai and therefore we have decided on this option. Accommodation is in simple but high quality tents. To ensure you don't have to give up comfort, a camping toilet with tent is at your disposal. For washing there is a basin with hot water. Before going to sleep you can enjoy, if the weather is nice, the fantastic starry sky. The next morning you will be served an early but welcoming breakfast. As soon as we say goodbye to the villagers, we continue towards Kikuletwa hot springs, which are located near Rundugai village. The Kikuletwa hot springs are certainly one of the most beautiful places in Tanzania: the hot springs are surrounded by fig trees, palm trees and sinuous roots: a true hidden paradise. The crystal clear, turquoise waters invite you for a refreshing swim. Although it is called a hot spring, the water in Kikuletwa is not hot, but rather refreshing as the water source comes from the same mountain as Kilimanjaro. Most visitors arrive around midday, but we arrive early in the morning when it's still quiet. Therefore, with a bit of luck, we will spot blue monkeys in the treetops, before they then disappear into the bush. Please note: this is just an example.

Please bring your own sleeping bag on this tour. If you don't have a sleeping bag, we will be happy to provide you with one for a small additional cost (limited availability)).
