Rundugai Cultural Tourism Enterprise in Shinyanga

We visited this village prior to leaving for 2 week safari. This was a wonderful experience. We learned so much about the village and the culture. The women prepared an amazing meal for us and they sang and danced. We also swam in their hot spring blue lagoon. It was so much fun!!

Great place to experience

Awesome. Therapeutic warm water

Chemka Hot Spring

Nuestro día visitando esta aldea comenzó con una agradable y prolongada charla con la Midwife (Partera de la aldeaconversamos de todo un poco acerca de su vida y experiencias realizando esta labor para las mujeres de la zona, estuvo súper interesante y nos reímos mucho con las muchísimas preguntas que le hizo mi esposa.Luego continuamos la caminata rumbo a la casa de la Herbalista donde pudimos ver casi todos los remedios y recetas tradicionales y naturales que utiliza para curar distintas enfermedades después de pasar unos buenos minutos aquí, seguimos para llegar a conocer a dos amables y graciosas señoras que realizan diferentes artesanías con la hoja de la Doum Palm, nos enseñaron y tratamos de aprender la técnica del trenzado de esta palma con la cual ellas hacen alfombras, bolsones, manteles y muchas otras cosas más. Aprendimos y reímos mucho con las ocurrencias de estas señoras que no paraban de hacernos bromas respecto a su cultura y la nuestra.Disfrutamos también de un delicioso almuerzo con diferentes platos típicos de Tanzania, comimos hasta más no poder.Finalizamos el tour en un lugar que me sorprendió mucho porque no esperaba encontrar un paraíso en medio de una zona semiseca, una especie de piscina natural creada por agua caliente subterránea que emerge a la superficie y crea un ambiente casi similar a aguas termales, lo llaman Kikuletwa hotsprings, aquí disfrutamos de un buen nado y tiempo de relax y más porque en el lugar eramos solo nosotros en 4 personas más que ya estaban ahí, así que el lugar estaba casi vacío cosa imposible de ver en temporada alta nos comentó el guía.Gracias Rundugai Cultural Tourism, gracias a nuestros guías y ahora amigos Ndoss y Magdalena que hicieron nuestro día y experiencia por la zona muy divertido. Si estas pensando visitar Arusha - Tanzania y hacer un tour cultural entonces hacelo con ellos.

If you want to have a great cultural visit supporting a community and above all learning from it, I highly recommend doing some of the Rundugai Cultural Tourism tours. With my husband, whenever we travel, we seek to have authentic experiences and live with people. This is why we visited the village of Rundugai with Ndoss and Magdalena, incredible guides with an excellent level of English but above all human warmth. With them we visited the midwife of the village and they helped us transmit our queries to Susana. It was very interesting to learn about her job and how she has helped thousands of women get pregnant with traditional medicine and give birth. We also visited Paulina, the village herbalist who also treats many diseases like diabetes or cancer with tree roots and bark.Then we went to learn how the women in Rundugai do the weaving with the Doum Palm and the different products like carpets and baskets they do.After a delicious local lunch we head to the cherry of the day, the Kikuletwa Hotsprings.A paradise close to the village. Crystal clear waters and hundreds of fish was a total enjoyment relaxing in its warm water to end the day. Highly recommended!

Excellent food and warm and friendly guides will take you to a spring fed pool that will meet every expectation of tropical paradise. I kid you not. If you get lucky as we did you will also have a great view of Kilimanjaro

Its an entertaining place

A gate way to kikuletwa hotspring, located 10 kilometers from Bomang’ombe, 40 Kilometers from Moshi and 26 kilometers from Kilimanjaro International Airport, is ideal place to visit and meet locals to learn how banana beer is made, visit herbalist, midwife, hot local lunch, visit Maasai boma and dance with them, and final refresh your body by swimming at Kikuletwa hot spring, You can visit local market if you visit the area on Monday.

So many adventures

One of the best village to experience multiple day trip adventure ranging from typical Maasai tour to the astonishing Hot spring. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Moshi before or after Safari or Kilimanjaro trekking.
