2.Materuni waterfalls coffee tour & Chemka hot springs Day trip

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 131 reviews · from $95

You’ll hike to Materuni Waterfalls, visit a Chagga coffee farm, roast and prepare local coffee, then swim at Chemka, also called Kikuletwa Hot Springs. Pickup is offered, the tour is private, and guides such as Owen lead the day. Expect a full outing, not a quick half-day.

“My guide was great! Scenery was magnificent, and the springs are a great refreshing way to refresh after the hike. Its a bumpy ride. But well worth it. The ONLY warning I would give is despite what is listed, this is not a 4-6 hour tour. Its 10-12. I looked at 4-6 hours and told myself "no way" and I was right. So this is your entire day. But well worth it.”
