Program Highlights

3 Day Tanzania – Cultural Tour to Hadzabe and Datoga Tribe with Kilipeak Adventure is one of the very unique tribes we have in Tanzania, the last hunter-gatherer’s tribe left in Tanzania.

HADZABE
In the morning clients will join the Hadzabe and interact with them, and learn so many stuff like how to make fire by using two dry sticks, the way which has been used for thousands of years. The Bushmen will teach them how to use their bow and arrows, collecting some tubers, roots, and fruits with the women or join the men on hunting. Hunting is done in the morning; clients will follow the hunters behind and see how the hunting is done. The honey gathering is part of it, but depending on the season as the honey gathering is done in the rainy season. Join on Hadzabe tribal dance. Here the tour may take 3 to 4 hours

DATOGA
Once they are done with the Hadzabe Bushmen, they will join the other tribe called Datoga, which resembles the Maasai in culture. These people are also a blacksmith, as they make weapons such as arrowheads and knives which they trade with the Bushmen. Tourists can see how they make all those stuff (arrowheads, spears, knives, bracelets, etc), also how they grind maize with stones, how they melt brass, copper, or aluminum.
Here the tour will last for almost 1 hour.
