Materuni Waterfalls, hidden in the foothills of Mount Kilimanjaro, is one of Tanzania’s most breathtaking natural attractions. Standing over 90 meters tall, the waterfall is reached via a scenic hike through banana and coffee farms, offering stunning views and cultural insights. Along the way, you’ll learn about the Chagga people’s coffee-making process — from bean to cup — and enjoy a freshly brewed local coffee. A refreshing swim at the base of the waterfall completes this immersive day tour.
