Day Trip
Located in the desert of Boma, Kikuletwa Maji Moto (Swahili for “Hot Water”) Hotsprings is a great way to spend the afternoon swimming, resting and enjoying the scenery. The breathtaking scenery, including a view of Mount Kilimanjaro. The lush trees and beautiful springs is a source of water for farmers but also enjoyed by locals and tourists for it’s immense beauty.
A visit to the Chemka Hot Springs is a great way to start or finish your Kilimanjaro climbing tour or Tanzania wildlife safari tour if you want to visit Tanzania for a wildlife viewing adventure.
Let's Plan Day Trip
Pick up from your Arusha or Moshi hotel /or residence and make a two-hour drive to Lundugai near Boma Ng’ombe arriving at the Chemka / Maji Moto Hot springs. This scenic drive takes you off the tourist trail and offers a glimpse into local life: bustling markets, local farms, and the like.
On arrival at this oasis of its kind you will spend a few hours soaking in the pleasantly warm waters, as well as swinging on the rope swing (if you care for some little adrenaline activity), relaxing in the sun-dappled shade of the trees, but also feasting on local favorites such as Chips-mayai (a French fry omelette made out of eggs and potato chips) and Nyama-choma which is a local barbeque. We can also provide packed lunch from town; Arusha or Moshi town depending on which town you are starting from.
After you have had enough we will take you back to Arusha or Moshi town where you will be dropped at your lodge ready for your next destination. If you are departing on this day you can be dropped at Kilimanjaro International Airport directly from Maji Chemka for your flight back home.

Went for 5 days climb to Kili from Marangu Gate. Good preparation (all missing equipment provided for free), great organisation and splendide execution..All of it for a fare price. Thank you Marko, Kenny, Rama and the rest of the team!
I’m glad I chose African traces for my Kilimanjaro climb via the 6-day Machame route. Marko, the owner, was very responsive throughout the planning phase and made modifications up until the last moments
Our safari was a 5-day trip. Marko helped us arranged it. Marko is really responsible and every time reply to me with a fast speed. Even helped us to get the SIM card. William was our guide, he is really gentle, friendly, and kind.
The trip was amazing. William was our guide. We are sure the safari experience wouldnt be the same without him. He made sure we are ok every second, that we saw the animals we wanted and as close as possible.
My wife and I booked trough African traces both the kilimanjaro treck and safari and are extremely happy we did. After 12 years of being a porter to cook to assistant guide to chief guide and finally safari guide
