Day Trips in Moshi
1. Materuni waterfalls and Coffee experience
A day trip to Materuni Waterfalls is a refreshing blend of culture, adventure, and nature. Just a short drive from Moshi, the journey takes you through lush banana and coffee plantations, where locals warmly welcome you with stories of their traditions. The path winds through green hills and tropical vegetation until reaching the 90-meter waterfall, which reveals itself, cascading into a cool natural pool. After a guided waterfall tour, you will dive into coffee making, just learning traditional coffee production, harvesting, and processing until you make your own cup of coffee. You will enjoy the traditional lunch served in the local buffet before dropping off in Moshi town.
2. Chemka Hot Spring
The Chemka Hot Springs, also known as Kikuletwa, offer a completely different kind of magic. Hidden in a grove of fig trees, this turquoise oasis feels like a secret paradise in the middle of the savannah. The warm, crystal-clear water is ideal for swimming, floating, or simply soaking under the shade as you unwind from your safari or climb. Tiny fish nibble at your toes, adding a playful touch, while rope swings invite the adventurous to plunge into the pool with a splash. With picnic spots and plenty of time to relax, Chemka is less about the rush of exploration and more about slowing down, reconnecting with nature, and sharing laughter with fellow travelers.
