Mamba and Marangu in the Kilimanjaro area have both natural and cultural heritage to offer the visitors. There are more than seven waterfalls in the vicinity, unique flora with tree, flower and fruit nurseries and fauna. Tour the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro and ascend to beautiful viewpoints.

Tours though Marangu offer panoramic views of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Visit the home and memoral of the late Yohana Lauwo, a Marangu native who accompanied Dr. Hans Meyer on the first recorded climb of Mt. Kilimanjaro in 1889 and read the original log books of Lauwo.

Customized half day, full day or two walking safaris can be organized. There tours include the Kinukamori and Moonjo falls and a visit to a Chagga house made of straw-roofing. See the first coffee tree planted in Tanzania and climb up Ngangu Hill. A trip to the African Art Centre which houses a collection of ancient and modern sculptures, carvings and paintings, is rewarding.

Mamba is a paradise for bird-watchers and nature lovers. Pass historical sites including Laka Holes – large hiding caves used during the Chagga – Maasai wars, visit wood carving school and meet a local blacksmith using traditional methods to prepare spears and tools.
