MOSHI RURAL CULTURAL TOURISM VIA RUNDUGAI WARM SPRING – 1 DAY TRIP

Our first stop will be at Boma Ng’ombe. The name Boma Ng’ombe came from a combination of two Swahili words whereas the word Boma means a house or a cattle cage and the word Ng’ombe means a cow. It is a popular place where Maasai used for trading cows in the recent past and as a result the place is being referred to Boma Ng’ombe ever since. From here you will be able to pass to a supermarket and buy some needs before embarking to the path leading to the Rundugai Village. On the way, we will have short breaks at the best spots to capture amazing views of the Kilimanjaro Mountain and the plains.

Having driven for some time, we will reach to a point where we will leave our van and start to walk in the village streets and across plantations to get an experience on how different crops are grown in diverse ways by examining the Rundugai agricultural activities. You will have a chance to take a few pictures on farm activities and proceed with a walk through the Rundugai village, meet the local groups in their natural habitats including visiting the Maasai Boma. We will then continue walking via the market place (available only on Monday) where the Maasai and other ethnic groups are buying and selling local products. Upon request, the villagers can also arrange for us a dance with local music in styles.

As we pass through the Rundugai Village and across plantations, we will have many chances of spotting different species of birds beautiful as they fly and wonderful as they sing. Pictures are the mirrors of the past, and we hope to help you to reflect better your memorable experience with us even after a hundred years to come. As the bird flies in the air with a wonderful natural background behind it, so will the picture forever stay?

The way to Rundugai village is full of amazing spots where you can be able to capture wonderful views of the Kilimanjaro Mountain and the plains. However, after the rain farming harvest, the views of the Uhuru summit becomes more clear and vivid to the eyesight. We will extend a little more time to capture more nice pictures to your memorable satisfaction. During the sunset, the views will blow your mind upon the clear crystal sky.

Finally, our wonderful trip will arrive at one of the most fascinating springs in Tanzania, “The Kikuletwa Warm Spring” located in the beautiful Rundugai village with amazing clear natural blue water in a cozy pool covered by green surroundings and big trees with incredible roots of the fig trees intertwined. Visitor will have a chance to swimming against strong flow of water in the spring, diving on ropes and have so much fun with a beer or wine to make you feel fine. (Some trips includes camping overnight and having a local food around the night fire site prepared by our Kilimanjaro Trek Team upon request).

All meals will be provided throughout the trip. Upon arrival at the Kikuletwa warm spring which is popularly referred to as the Chemka Warm Spring, our team and a chef will be there to provide you with the best lunch ever.

We will be able to pass through the Local Souvenirs market center to grab some souvenirs to take back home with you or send a gift. Every culture have its different traditions and norms so do the arts and crafts of its diverse ethnicities in different cultural styles.
