A remarkable day in Dar! - Right on time, my Guide Erick picked me up at the hotel. He showed me around Dar and was very knowledgeable about the city´s history and society in Tanzania. We visited the fish market, several churches, markets and the village museum. Throughout the entire day, we never ran out of conversation topics. He was attentive to my desires and needs, and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the day with him and learning about Dar. Thank you to Envoyage Tanzania and Erick!

Best city tour in Tanzania! - Went on the Dar Es Salaam city tour with Erick - absolutely fantastic!!! I would give this a higher rating if I could. Erick was extremely knowledgeable, able to tell me about anything I asked, and flexible with the timings of every stop. From the moment the tour started, it was as if I was being shown around by an old friend! We saw some amazing sites, got beautiful views of the city (and managed to get some great photos thanks to Erick!), learnt a lot about everyday life in Dar Es Salaam, as well as the history of the city and the different tribes that make up modern Tanzania, and ate some delicious food!! If anyone ever tells me they're coming to Tanzania, the first thing I will recommend will be Envoyage Tours!!

The Best City Trip we had - We had few days to spare in Dar es Salaam before heading back to Romania and decided to take a trip around the city. Fair to say Envoyage Tanzania made this city tour really exciting, Mr. Eric our guide took us to some really enjoyable spots. This city has much more to offer than it looks. We sure visit again next time we are here.

Wonderful day trip with Mr. Thomas - Our tour guide Thomas was incredible. He was so knowledgeable and we had lovely conversation all day about each others cultures. However, you tried to pack too much in the day. We only drove by the beach and almost did not make it back to the cruise ship on time because of the traffic. Thomas did a wonderful job getting us back to the ship. You need to alter your tour to accommodate traffic and ship departure times
