Materuni Waterfalls & Kikuletwa Hot Springs Combo

10 HoursNature & AdventureKilimanjaro

The Materuni and Kikuletwa combo pairs northern Tanzania's two favourite day trips into one big day out from Moshi or Arusha. In the morning you walk to the 80-metre Materuni waterfall and roast your own Chagga coffee; in the afternoon you float in the turquoise Kikuletwa (Chemka) hot springs to wash off the trail. It is the best-value way to see waterfall, coffee farm and hot springs in a single guided day.
