Mamba
and Marangu in the Kilimanjaro area have both natural and cultural heritage to
offer the visitor. There are more than seven waterfalls in the vicinity, unique
flora with tree, flower and fruit nurseries and fauna. Tour the slopes of Mt.
Kilimanjaro and ascend to beautiful viewpoints.
Tours
through Marangu offer a panoramic view of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Visit the home and
memorial of the late Yohana Lauwo, a Marangu native who accompanied Dr. Hans
Meyer on the first recorded climb of Kilimanjaro in 1889, and read the original
log books of Lauwo. Customised half day, full day or two day walking safaris
can be organised.
These
tours include the Kinukamori and Moonjo falls and a visit to a Chagga house
made of straw-roofing. See the first coffee tree planted in Tanzania and climb
up Ngangu Hill. Take a trip to the African Art Centre that houses a collection
of ancient and modern sculptures, carvings and paintings.
Mamba
is a paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Enjoy scenic waterfalls,
trees, flowers and fruit nurseries, pass historical sites including the Lake
Holes - large hiding caves used during the Chagga–Maasai wars, visit a wood
carving school, meet a local blacksmith using ethnic methods to prepare spears
and tools, and experience Chagga culture by visiting a traditional Chagga
house.
