We are located within an old coffee plantation and surrounded by a forrest, it is safe to do walks around the property. Please inform our reception if you would like to do a walk and we will organise a guide free of charge. Nearby, about 3 km, there is a new shopping mall as an alternative for outing or restaurant. Walking will take about half hour one way or you can ask for a taxi or a piki piki (motorbike taxi) as mean of transport, it will be organised at a separate cost. We can also organize day trips to the nearby National parks (Tarangire, Manyara or Arusha National Park) but we need at least to get your request at least 48 hours prior to your arrival.
