"...a cultural insight hike to the settlement of Dirma, home of the Barbaig tribespeople whose traditions remain unchanged and unspoilt..."
"...The beautiful Mt. Hanang, Tanzania's 4th highest, can be climbed in one day..."
Sounds like the ideal combination: Traditional culture, mountainhiking, going off the beaten track and benefiting local communities.
Attracted by this phrases from a brochure of the Cultural Tourism Programme, I took a Babati bound bus, some 4,5 rough and dusty hours on the road to Dodoma....to look for Mr. Kahembe, local coordinator. |

I like to see traditions broken and beliefs abandoned... This bottle of Sprite could be an auspicious beginning...! | sachara Fri Aug 1, 2003 07:54 UTC
