The Chagga Farm Stay and Safari Tour combines cultural immersion within the farming communities around Mount Kilimanjaro with wildlife exploration in northern Tanzania.
Instead of visiting a farm only for a few hours, travellers can spend additional time within the rural environment and experience the connection between agriculture, food, family life and local culture.
The farm stay can include banana plantations, coffee gardens, household crops, traditional food preparation and guided village walking with a knowledgeable local cultural guide.
After the Chagga cultural experience, the journey can continue into Tanzania's national parks for game drives and wildlife observation.
