GO WALKING WITH THE HUNTER-GATHERER HADZABE TRIBE, TANZANIA

Go Walking with the Hunter-gatherer Hadzabe Tribe, Tanzania

You can spend your time at Lake Eyasi enjoying morning and afternoon activities with your guide. Due to the nomadic nature of the Hadzabe tribe, visits with them cannot be absolutely guaranteed, however your guide will do their utmost to arrange this if at all possible. Trekking with this tribe is one of the most fascinating experiences you can do anywhere in East Africa. They are the last of the hunter gatherer tribes and heading out with them on a hunt really takes you back to a different era.

Walks vary between 5-8 km and at times they walk fairly quickly. Such is the authentic nature of the hunt that if they find any sizeable game they will head off at great speed and it is virtually impossible to keep up. In this situation your guide will bring you back to camp. This is a fairly unusual scenario and most of the time they find only small game. You will also have the opportunity to go on a short walk with the women and also see how the families exist here in this harsh environment.

STAY WITH THE HADZA

Staying with the Hadza for couple days is one of the very great experience to do in a lifetime.
Doing a day trip and spend just few hours in Hadzabe camp is not enough to get to know them better.
If you choose to spend more days in their camp you will have an opportunity of learning about their ways of living, culture, traditions and much more in deep.
You can choose to spend from 3 to 7 days or more. This activity is suitable for both solo travelers, couples, family, students, photographers, anthropologists etc. 

Come And Fish With The Local

Lake Eyasi supports minor local fishing in wet years, but more often catfish and lungfish are taken from the streams and springs that feed the lake. The local fisher men may take you on
these amazing streams and springs for fishing while visiting Lake Eyasi.

HADZABE HUTS

Hadzabe Bushmen live in small huts build with branch of tress and grass. The huts are built by women although men may help on bringing materials. They have been building the same kind of huts with the same structures for thousand of years.

During the rainy season most of the Hadzabe move to the mountains where they can find caves to hide.
