EcoJoy – Rooms and Tours

EcoJoy

Eco Joy is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of people, communities, and the local ecosystem in the Kilimanjaro region of Tanzania through responsible tourism. Our approach involves combining practical benefits with enjoyable experiences. To this end, we manage a 7-hectare property in the savannah of West Kilimanjaro, on which we engage in organic horticulture and forestry, in addition to running a Bed & Breakfast and offering camping facilities. We organize adventurous cycling tours in the Arusha region and around Mt. Kilimanjaro and promote cycling by organising twice a year a challenge for local cyclists. Lastly we operate a peaceful Bed and Breakfast in Arusha in an ecologically responsible manner. After ensuring a decent income for the people involved in these activities and making provision for maintenance, repairs and depreciation, any surplus income is used to provide scholarships. Students supported to date: 9. Education ranges from short courses, proper vocational training to university education. Reforestation: trees planted to date: 330. Supporters reforestation to date: 6

Beautiful location

Themi View is situated nearly at the end of the Njiro peninsula of Arusha Town, right on the border of the Gorge of the Themi river. As it is located only 15 minutes from town centre and 3 minutes from the Arusha ring road (the bypass), it gives easy access to the game parcs as well as Kilimanjaro Airport.

Magnificent sunset view

Sitting on the balcony or on the bank of the Themi river gorge, looking west, enjoying a meal or a drink you can marvel at the splendid colours of East African Sunsets.
