Stop for shopping at Shanga and lunch at Arusha Coffee Lodge

What you'll do

A community-led and heartfelt project, Shanga (the Swahili word for bead) has grown from humble beginnings to a thriving Arusha gem. It was created to provide skilled job opportunities to differently-abled people from Tanzania, offering training in everything from needlework and jewellery-making to metal work and glass blowing. At Shanga, pick up one (or many) of these unique, hand-crafted items and learn a new skill like Maasai beading or Swahili sign language. Afterwards, enjoy lunch at the Arusha Coffee Lodge.
