Overview For an authentic experience in Tanzania, a visit to Lake Eyasi is a must. Home to the Hadzabe people, one of the last hunter-gatherer tribes in East Africa, the area around the lake is wild and infrequently explored. Your guide, a member of the Hadzabe tribe, takes you on a tour of the bush, showing you how they hunt, track wildlife, make fire and even collect honey from bees' nests. You'll also have the chance to meet tribe members and learn about their customs and way of life.
