Longido area is loaded with birdlife and some of the birds found are: red and yellow Barbet, Masked Weaver, Silver Bill and Secretary Bird.
A bird walk all the way through the Masai plains first from the town of Longido then to the selected bomas of Masai allows you to observe not only birds and trees and plants used by the locals Maasai to make food and medicines but also you can observer the Masai lifestyle and if you are lucky some traditional events.

We will have a walk from selected Masai boma to Kimokouwa village along a cattle track . We will be gradually rising to an altitude of 1,600m to get getting the marvelous views of Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru. We will go down to walk around Kimokouwa’s lush “valley of wells” and nearby historic British grave. The next day, you can extend your stay by visiting the bustling and vivid cattle market.

Early in the next morning , we will pursue the constricted foot-trails all the way through the dense natural forest for 3-4 hrs to the gorgeous ‘dawa ya supu’ or medicine soup viewpoint. Another 2hrs trekking will take you to the summit of Longido mountain to benefit from incredible views of the other mountains of northern Tanzania (some of them are Mt. Kilimanjaro, Mt. Meru and Mt. Kitumbeine). The descent back to the campsite takes about three hours.
Concluding the program with a farewell event with the Maasai women cultural group.
