Our guide Emmanuel was very knowledgeable and friendly. We visited a beautiful waterfall and enjoyed learning about the traditional coffee roasting process.

We’re delighted that Emmanuel’s knowledge and friendliness, the beautiful waterfall, traditional coffee experience, and local lunch made your visit so memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another authentic Materuni adventure. Thanks!
This is a very rustic experience. It was a rainy day, so path was super slippery/muddy. Coffee extraction is done in a small house - again very native/ rustic exp. Waterfall is beautiful although the hike got adventurous due to the rains and super slippery pathway. Saw multiple folks slipping/falling on the way. The lunch exp was again in someone’s house porch- nothing fancy- traditional vegetarian couple of dishes. People were nice and it seems a way to bring business to the village.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your thoughtful 4-star review. We’re glad you enjoyed the beauty of the waterfall and appreciated the opportunity to connect with the local village community. You’re absolutely right that this experience is intentionally rustic and designed to give a genuine glimpse into traditional village life, including the coffee-making process and home-style meals. That said, we understand that the rainy conditions can make the trail more challenging and slippery, and we truly appreciate you highlighting this. We will continue to emphasize weather considerations and safety guidance for future guests. It’s wonderful to hear that you found the people welcoming and recognized the positive impact on the local community — that’s a core part of what we aim to support. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure, perhaps in drier conditions!
It was truly a pleasure meeting Emmanuel and taking part in the coffee tour he hosts. I really appreciated his clear explanations, engaging demonstrations, and the delicious coffee we got to enjoy. The beautiful surroundings and the chance to connect with the local community made the experience even more memorable.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a real pleasure hosting you and sharing the coffee experience together. We’re happy you enjoyed the tour, the coffee, and the beautiful surroundings. You’re always welcome back to Materuni!
I had an amazing time today at the waterfalls and during the coffee making and tasting experience! I was also fortunate to enjoy some delicious home-cooked food and visit the family farm Definitely highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad you enjoyed the waterfalls, coffee experience, and the home cooked meal with the family. It means a lot to us that you had such a memorable time hope to welcome you again soon!
Such a fantastic experience; the boys were super professional but still just genuinely good fun to be around! I was picked up from town no problem, the waterfall hike was unreal and making my own cup of coffee was a highlight. Honestly everyone involved went all out with lunch (and everything else on the whole tour tbh)… even though it was just me. Couldn’t recommend it more!

A guide I would definitely recommend! His deep knowledge of the landscape and culture made the day truly enjoyable. He was very attentive, and as a solo female traveler, I felt relaxed and secure the whole time.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really happy you felt safe and enjoyed learning about the culture and landscape. It was a pleasure guiding you hope to see you again in Tanzania!
