Early morning, we'll begin our day with a breakfast or parked breakfast before heading to Lake Eyasi, where we'll immerse ourselves in the fascinating traditions of the Hadzabe and Datoga people. We'll start by visiting the Hadzabe, also known as the Bushmen of Lake Eyasi, renowned for their hunter-gatherer lifestyle. In their arid landscape of savanna woodland, we'll explore Hadzabe hiding caves, join in fruit gathering and wild honey collection, and test our skills with their traditional bow and arrow. If luck is on our side, we might even witness a successful hunt, with the hunters sharing the meat among themselves and taking some home for their families.
In the afternoon we venture to another tour, the Datooga or Barbaig people. Visiting one of their villages, we'll be awed by the intricate blacksmith works of the Datooga males, created from discarded scraps. Later, we'll head to the lodge for lunch then drive back to Arusha.
