Marangu Day Trip

At 8 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Arusha and start this adventure. We'll head to Kilimanjaro, at the foot of which lies Marangu, where we'll learn about the Chagga people.

The first stop will be at the Marangu Falls. Amidst lush nature, you'll hear the water rushing down, and then crystalline waterfalls will come into view. An option to take a dip is available, with the water sourced from Kilimanjaro.

The tour will continue at the Chagga museum. The Chagga are the third largest ethnic group in Tanzania and were the first to convert to Christianity. We'll learn about their way of life and visit the tunnels that served as a refuge during the inter-clan conflicts.

Marangu is famous for its colorful markets full of bananas. After a brief stop for lunch, we will explore the coffee and banana plantations. You'll discover various uses of bananas among the Chagga people and have the opportunity to sample mbege, a banana beer.

Once the visit is over, we'll return to Arusha, arriving back at your hotel at 4 pm.
