There's a cool pool at the base of the waterfall where you can take a refreshing swim, so remember to bring your swimwear!
After enjoying the scenery, you'll make your way back to Materuni village with your guide. Here, you'll get to savor a traditional Chagga lunch and even try our local banana beer.
Then, it's time for the coffee experience. You'll discover how coffee is grown, dried, roasted, and processed. You'll even have a chance to join in on grinding the coffee, all while being entertained by Chagga songs and dances —a fun way to immerse yourself in the local culture.
