You want to go for a Hadzabe Bushmen tour in Africa?, look no further. Come join us on a bushman tour that will not only involve visiting and hunting with hadzabe tribe in Tanzania, but you will also get the chance to encounter the Datoga tribe all who live around Lake Eyasi area.

About one hour’s drive south west of Karatu (on the Outskirts of the Ngorongoro Crater), lies Lake Eyasi one of the rift valley lakes that are situated in Tanzania. It is a shallow Seasonal lake that fills with water after rains and subsequently playing host to a myriad of birds species and providing water for the Hadzabe tribe of bushmen.

Their language is similar to the Southern Africa’s Bushmen who speak the Click language and their language is believed to still have the clicks and pops like no other “ click language” up to now.

It is believed that about 10000 years ago the more hostile tribes of the Maasai and Iraq (Mbulu), displaced this small African Bushman tribe from the Ngorongoro Crater and the Crater highland forests and they settled to their present day land around Lake Eyasi.

The tribe is comprised of very few inhabitants of the Lake Eyasi area ; estimated at about just one thousand. These African Bushmen tribe do not rear cattle or produce farm produce at any time and rely fully on Hunting and gathering of fruits and berries for their up keep.

With their strong Bows whose string is made out of Giraffe Tendons they are able to bring down small animals like dik diks, baboons, monkeys, large and small birds, to large game animals like zebras, giraffes, and buffaloes. The arrows are treated with a poison extracted from a tree well known to them.

One of their ancient skills is how to make fire from rubbing some wood; the Commiphora tree. Other uses of some trees includes using the same Commiphora tree to extract the sap that is believed to be a mosquito repellent. They use the Sansaveria tree to make a snake bite cure and the Aloe vera is used by the African Bushman as a treatment for cut wounds.
