An unforgettable day with Pison - We highly recommend trying this trip! It was an amazing experience. We were picked up in the morning by our driver and then we met our guide Pison who took us on a boat and we explored Lake Duluti. It's like another safari, so many different birds that we didn't expect such fun. It was calming, beautiful, relaxing and very safe. We didn't see Kilimanjaro due to poor visibility, but it was okay. Then we cycled to the waterfalls. It was a bit challenging :), but amazing! And we were glad we got some exercise after the safari. After refreshing ourselves in the water we had bananas, our great guide bought them for us because we were a bit hungry, but then in the afternoon we had a great lunch - honestly, the best of our entire stay in Tanzania. After swimming we cycled back. I have to say that it was one of the greatest moments for me because we were in contact with the locals, the kids were waving at us and it was very authentic. One of the most realistic and beautiful experiences of our entire visit.

Fantastic trip - great guide - This was a fantastic trip. Pisan was our guide and he is a lovely person, very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We had a lovely time looking at lots of wildlife on the lake and then the bike ride was a great way to see the villages and learn a little about local life. The waterfall was stunning and we had a really nice swim and had the place to ourselves. Highly recommend this trip.

Fun and educational - It was such a great experience! The cycling part needs a bit of fitness, but it’s totally worth it. Our guide Peason was amazing and made the whole adventure even more fun. Definitely recommend!

The whole package - peaceful boatride and adventure on mountainbikes - My friends and I took the Lake Duluti + Mountain bike in the area. First a super pieceful boatride around lake Duluti seeing the beautiful bird rich fauna and nature. Afterwards a tough but awesome trip on mountainbike. Please be aware that it requires a little bit of fitness to go over the hills and going down you need to be comfortable on a mountainbike. You can also just get off the bike and push. Afterwards we had a dip in the captivating waterfall - it was nice after a quite tough hill on the bike. We ended with a wonderful dinner at a local place with great vibes. The guide was cool! Definitely recommend to do this tour.

An amazing experience - The tour started with a relaxing canoe ride and I was lucky enough to spot monkeys. It was a tough mountain bike ride but I was rewarded at the end by swimming at the most beautiful waterfall. The lunch was delicious. I highly recommend Naturalland Expeditions.

Free day in Arusha - Booked this last minute as I needed some exercise, after sitting in cars for safaris ended up being the only traveller. Had a nice relaxing canoe on the lake; saw lots of beautiful birds, monkeys and an iguana with mountains in the background. The bike ride was definitely more of a mountain bike with moderately rocky terrain roads/farmland flat but a couple of hills over all great. Got to a small but beautiful waterfall for a nice swim when do you ever get your own personal waterfall. Food was nice.

Unfortunately, not very interesting - Unfortunately, this is not very interesting. They are not canoes but a kind of boat where we climb to four, and we are shown around the lake. This remains my opinion, but maybe the birdwatchers will be more satisfied than us.
