WHAT CAN I DO ON WEEKEND

During the weekend our project volunteers have some time off to relax and get to enjoy some of the wonderful things to offer in area that they are staying in. This includes taking a cycling ride up through the banana plantations and forest of the Great Rift Valley wall. Arrive at the Rift valleys waterfalls and swim in the natural pools. 

 Take the change to see some of Tanzania’s great wildlife by going on an afternoon’s safari trip deep into the Maasai steppe. Whiteness Elephants, Giraffe, Zebra, Gazelle, Ostrich, Fish Eagle and a diverse range of other Tanzanian wildlife and bird life.  

 Spend a day by the poolside taking in the African Sun, and beautiful environment spending some hard earned rest after the weeks work. 

Visit the local Maasai market and immerse yourself in their culture, foods, drinks and then after join a Maasai celebration with song and dance.
