I did two tours with Said - to hot springs and to the waterfall. Both of them were fun and I learnt a lot during the trips about the local culture and nature. They take really good care and make sure it is a personal experience with great food!

A very nice one-day excursion from moshi village! We cycled from moshi village to the materuni waterfalls, which was a physical, but rewarding experience. After the ride, we explored the surroundings of the waterfalls and swum at the bottom of the waterfall, which was more than welcome after sweating to reach the top! The tour was perfectly organized by our guide Said and the bicycles were from high quality. I definitively recommend the excursion if you spend a few days in Moshi.
