Day Trips From Moshi — Big Adventures, One Afternoon at a Time
Whether you have arrived early for your Kilimanjaro climb, come down from the mountain with sore legs and time to spare, or simply want a slower day between safari highs — Moshi is the perfect base. Within a couple of hours of our office sit waterfalls, hot springs, coffee farms, lakes and parks most travellers never realise they could see in a single day.
Best Day Trips from Moshi
- Materuni Waterfalls & Coffee Tour: An 80-metre waterfall, a Chagga coffee experience, and an authentic village lunch — all 15km from Moshi.
- Chemka (Kikuletwa) Hot Springs: A turquoise spring fed by Kilimanjaro itself. Swim, picnic, and unwind in shade.
- Materuni + Chemka Combo: Our most popular full-day trip — waterfall in the morning, hot springs in the afternoon.
- Lake Chala Day Trip: A crater lake on the Kenya-Tanzania border, jade-green and ringed by 100-metre cliffs.
- Mkomazi National Park Safari: A quiet park with elephants, oryx, and a black rhino sanctuary — two hours from Moshi.
- Arusha National Park Safari: Giraffes, flamingos, walking safaris on Mount Meru's slopes — only 90 minutes away.
- Kilimanjaro Day Hike: Walk on the mountain without committing to a full climb. Mandara Hut or the Shira Plateau.
