When you get to the waterfall, you can refresh yourself in the natural pool, so swimsuits will come in handy! The tour will continue with a visit to the local village lying in the coffee plantations. The villagers will demonstrate the process of coffee farming and guide you through the preparation of coffee from a bean to a cup.

    Fantastic experience with Aquiline safaris and adventures

    We got picked up at 8am to leave for the materuni waterfalls and coffee plantation experience. Our guide Joshua was lovely, very friendly and spoke very good English. The coffee plantation was a very interesting experience and worth while doing, there was a long walk to the waterfall which we really enjoyed and view when we got there was beautiful. We then had a delicious lunch and got back into the car to go to the hot springs. We were pleasantly surprised how little time we spent in the car and Joshua stopped at every available location to give up a view point for Kilimanjaro. A lovely day!

    Nice Experience!

    We booked a day tour with John to the Materuni waterfall with a visit to the coffee plantation and then a visit to the hot springs. The whole program was very easy to do in one day. Our guide Enock picked us up from the hotel together with Brian and drove us to the locations. Enock accompanied us on all the tours and explained everything really well. He is a super friendly and likeable guide who really enjoys his job. The visit to the Materuni coffee plantation was our highlight, we made and drank our own coffee together with the Materunis. All in all, we had a really great day and a lot of fun with Enock and Brian.

    Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arusha.

    How much does Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip cost?

    +

    Prices start at $150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Arusha usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip take?

    +

    Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Arusha is not rushed.

    Is Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Arusha, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Arusha can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Arusha and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Arusha within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Arusha?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Arusha experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Arusha Guided City Tour &Hotel Pickup (History, Culture &Market, 5 Days Camping Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro crater & Visiting Maasai, Materuni Waterfalls, coffee tour & Kikuletwa Hot Springs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Arusha?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Arusha?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee plantation Day Trip?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Lunch; and All Fees and Taxes. Not included: Use of Snorkeling equipment Rental - 30 USD per person; Trekking Poles - 25 USD per person; and Tip. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
