Great Mall - Mlimani City is the nice and easily accessible mall from the city. This Mall has a variety of products including Supermarkets, restaurants, closing stores, cinema etc. This is the amazing mall in Dar es Salaam.

Great City Tour of Dar es Salaam - Please note, this was during COVID-19. Upon arrival at the airport, Gabriel was very welcoming and informative during our day trip, and safety was his priority. This activity was a great way to see the city. We went to a fish market and Coco beach to name a few. The city was amazing from the history and the cleanliness of the city. I especially loved the views of clean Indian Ocean from Coco beach! Overall, this was a great introduction to the city and its people, and I would strongly recommend all visitors to book this activity.

Fantastic beach retreat in a city - Awesome, I stayed in a resort out of metro Dar es Salam. It was beautiful, and most importantly peaceful. I went on safari to Mikumi, fantastic day, there are tiny islands on the ocean about 10 minute boat ride from Azure Boutique Resort. The only down side is prices fluctuate, make sure you get a price so you can budget without carrying too much cash. International cards are problematic so hunting ATMs can distract from the days festivities or relaxation.

Great way to see genuine Dar es Salaam in a day - I fully recommend this city tour. Very well organised, it provides a fantastic way to see some of the most interesting and genuine places in Dar es Salaam. You will learn about city's history and people in the best possible way. Kivukoni fish market, and (huge, crowded) Kariakoo market are two highlights of the route, but every stop was worth making and had something special. The guide (Gabriel) was really knowledgeable and professional, yet charming and funny, at the same time. The great conversations we had were the perfect complement to the tour. The driver Athumani did a perfect job too, helping us maximise the use of our time, while driving - and parking! - safely across the busy streets of the city. The last stop is at a beach bar in Oyster Bay to have a drink and chill out, while watching the sunset. I can't think of a better way to finish the day. So if you have a free day to spend in Dar es Salaam, don't hesitate for a moment and book this tour!

Best Dar es Salaam City Tour! - The tour is well organized and Sammy, the tour guide, is really prepared on all the history, culture and contemporary evolution of the city. Even if my tour was on Sunday (and therefore some places of the "standard" tour were closed) Sammy suggested me some alternatives which fitted really well to give me a flavour of the real Dar Es Salaam. Having the full day available, the good thing is the flexibility of this tour: you can take your time to enjoy the different places at your own pace. No rush at all!!! I suggest this tour to everyone who wants to discover this beautiful city.

A+ Tour in Dar es Salaam - Gabriel and Sammy were the absolute best tour guides. Very friendly, social, knowledgeable, and humble. They provided me and my girlfriend a 5 star service that we will never forget. 100% glad we booked this trip and would highly recommend anyone traveling to Tanzania to do the same.

Improve the confectionery of Hotel Villavicencio "please" - The Villavicencio Nature Reserve is beautiful, the confectionery-restaurant leaves much to be desired. How do you understand that in a “natural” Reservation you are served machine coffee in a plastic cup?With a little imagination, an espresso machine, artisan cakes and generous fresh sandwiches, the place would overflow with people. He's the only one there; Who wouldn't enjoy something rich with a mountain view while the snow falls?
