Choose your day
Every experience starts and ends at Katiti, with water, park or village fees and a guide who knows the way.
Giraffes, buffalo, black-and-white colobus and pink flamingos on the Momella Lakes — a full day of game viewing under Mount Meru, thirty minutes from the lodge.
Walk through the rainforest of Africa’s highest mountain to Mandara Hut at 2,720 m, with colobus monkeys overhead and a view into the Maundi Crater.
A gentle hike through Chagga coffee farms to an 80-metre waterfall on Kilimanjaro’s slopes, a swim in its pool, and a cup of coffee you roast and grind yourself.
Nature & water
Lake Chala Crater Lake Excursion
From US$120 per person
A turquoise crater lake on the Kenyan border, hidden behind steep forested walls: hike the rim, paddle a canoe across still water and picnic in the quiet.
Culture
Maasai Cultural Village Experience
From US$65 per person
Spend a morning or afternoon with a Maasai family near the lodge: their homes, cattle and beadwork, the welcome dances, and plenty of time for real conversation.
Walk with an armed ranger through giraffe and buffalo country into the forests of Tanzania’s second-highest mountain, under the great fig-tree arch to Miriakamba Hut.
