Activities at Legendary Lodge
Al-Fresco Dining
Enjoy al fresco dining in the lush gardens or on the verandah. We can arrange a delicious variety of cheeses and charcuteries in the garden or simply order something off of our wonderful menu.
Coffee Tours (additional charge)
Not forgetting the beginnings of this century-old estate, Legendary Lodge is surrounded by a working coffee plantation. Guests can spend a morning following a coffee bean from tree to cup: from the agriculture, to picking and roasting, to the making of that delicious blend many of us enjoy at home, as Tanzanian coffee is exported far and wide.
Coffee tours take place on Legendary Lodge's neighbouring Burka Coffee farm.
Croquet on the lawn
Spend time with the whole family by enjoying a leisurely outdoor activity, with the fresh air and green surroundings of the estate providing a soothing backdrop for the game.
Helicopter Adventures (additional charge)
Elevate your safari experience to a new level of excellence with the inclusion of an exclusive-use helicopter. Available for private transfers between properties, stunning scenic excursions, or as the ultimate aerial adventure for your entire safari circuit.
Now based out of Arusha for optimum flexibility, the sky is truly the limit.
