This is home to the Hadza, a people who represent the last hunter-gathers in Tanzania. Fewer than 2,000 Hadzas exist and over 300 of them live in this area where they survive by hunting and gathering. This ancient way of life is fast disappearing, but despite the fact that the Hadza are undergoing the slow transition away from hunting and gathering, their fascinating lifestyle will intrigue you. With luck, we will meet the Mbulu people, who farm the lands. For the next day and half, we will explore this area by foot and vehicle, letting serendipity and circumstance decide our movements. You may have the opportunity to join a campsite of Hadza bushmen, where the Young Adventurers can learn how to shoot a bow and arrow with the Hadza children. Anything is possible, and the possibilities are endless. Each night, return to your campsite, where your visitors will include the Mbulu friends.
