Six ways to spend a day on this mountain. Not sure which one fits you? Send Justin a message and describe your group. He'll tell you straight what he would choose.
Two friends, a family of five and a group of twenty do not cost the same, and it wouldn't be honest to pretend otherwise. So tell Justin who's coming and when, and he'll send you one clear number that covers everything: transport, guiding, entry, lunch, the lot. Then you decide. No deposit to see the price, no account to make, no pressure.
The whole thing. Pick the red cherries in the morning, pound and roast them over the fire with the singing, eat lunch cooked by the mamas, then walk down the forest trail to the falls in the afternoon.
The complete coffee story without the walk. Good if you have small children, tired legs, an early flight, or you simply came for the coffee and nothing else.
Straight to the good part. A guided walk down the forest trail, plenty of time at the pool, and the climb back up at whatever pace suits you.
Sit inside a traditional hut, hear how families hid in the tunnels beneath them, try on the traditional dress, and eat a proper home-cooked meal over the fire with the family.
Nobody else joins you. Justin builds the day around your people. Slower walking for grandparents, more hands-on for children, more time at the falls if that's what you came for.
Twenty, thirty, fifty people. It can be done, and Justin has done it many times. Extra guides, extra transport, extra mamas cooking, and a village that genuinely enjoys a crowd.
No forms. No accounts. No card details on a website you've never heard of.
The message is already typed for you. Just fill in how many people you are and roughly which day, then press send. That's your whole side of the job.
Usually within minutes. Everything included, in writing, so you can read it twice and talk it over. Ask him anything you like. He would rather answer now than have you worried later.
Send your hotel name and a pick-up time. On the day, Justin is outside waiting. You pay in cash or by mobile money when you arrive in the village.
Coming from Arusha, the airport or further away? Just ask. Transport can be arranged, he'll just tell you what it adds.
Describe your group: ages, energy levels, how much time you have. Justin will tell you which day actually suits you, even if it's the shorter one.
