Things To Do

Nightlife & shopping in Tanzania

Nightlife is limited in Tanzania, but Dar es Salaam does have several nightclubs, cabaret venues and cinemas. All along the coast, and particularly on Zanzibar, hotels and beach bars often feature bands during the weekends with dance floors right on the beach. Quite often, traditional tribal dancing and drumming is performed in the safari lodges and beach resorts.
Cycling and Mountain Biking

A Tanzanian cycling safari is amazing because there are thousands of miles of single-track routes to explore, most of which are smooth, easy riding. Tanzania biking tour offers diversity – a range of biking terrain combined with fantastic scenery! With plenty of National Parks and game drives, this tour offers the opportunity to see the Big Five, Mt Kilimanjaro, the Ngorongoro crater, The Usambara and Uluguru Mountains and the stunning beaches of Zanzibar.
Paragliding Adventure

There are some fabulous areas to paraglide. Very few people paraglide in Tanzania, therefore it is a novelty. Always seek permission from the local village, explain what you are doing and where you think you will land (it is illegal to fly over national parks). Just some of the areas to fly are the Usambaras, the Rift Valley and numerous hills around Mt Meru
Culture Tourism

Local communities run cultural programmes that welcome visitors into their homes, directly generating income while showcasing everyday life and traditions. These authentic exchanges build mutual understanding and friendships, give tourists a genuine experience of Tanzania’s cultural diversity, and help rural families develop sustainable livelihoods.
Events and Festivals

Tanzania is a cultural melting pot with world-class festivals year-round — mark your diary for the Karibu Travel & Trade Fair; the Four Corners Cultural Programme (Haydom); the Mwaka Kongwa Festivals; the Zanzibar International Film Festival (ZIF); the Kilimanjaro Marathon; and the Serengeti Cultural Festival.
Safari Experiences

Besides the Big Five to the Small Five, Tanzania’s game parks, reserves and other wildlife protection areas host some of the diverse wildest game activities thus the reason why this is home for the safari.
Horse Riding

Horse riding is now conducted in a number of National Parks; in Arusha National Park, visitors explore the slopes of Mount Meru with lush mountain forests and sweeping views of the surrounding scenic places on a Horse back. Horse riding in Arusha National Park offers visitors a full benefit of the knowledge of the wildlife, bird life, forestry, waterfalls and many more. Following game trails stimulates visitors as one gets closer and interacts with the wildlife and then learns much more about it.
Camel Riding

The Camel Safaris are organized from the camel camp located in Mkuru Maasai village; from a few hours to a week-long expedition to Oldoinyo Lengai, Ngorongoro highland and Lake Natron. A trip on a camel back through the Maasai land is magical, visitors get a great chance to experience wildlife, Maasai people ‘day to day life’ and the beautiful scenery
Balloon Safaris

There are three different places in which one can take a hot air balloon ride in this sought after wildlife area which is a location for the great migration. These are within the middle of the Serengeti which is the area where there is a congregation of wildlife at the Seronera River this is largely due to there being a permanent flow of water there. The Western part of the Serengeti is another amazing place to see all kinds of riveting wildlife happenings, why not achieve this from a hot air balloon.
Boating and Canoeing

Boating and canoeing in Tanzania range from river trips past sunning hippos and crocodiles to coastal excursions around Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia — perfect for island-hopping, swimming off sandbars at low tide, reef sailing and snorkeling. Day trips to deserted islets, calm bay cruises or hands-on canoeing let you enjoy underwater life and a fresh perspective on Swahili coastal culture.
Bird Watching

The wild expanses of East and Southern Africa are paradise for birders.

The many habitats of East Africa provide dream birdwatching locations, and a dauntingly long list of endemic species that you simply have to travel to find. While there is plenty to occupy the keen or amateur birdwatching fanatic from the moment you touch down, there are also plenty of opportunities to spend time with some seriously impressive guides
Walking Safaris

To walk through the African bush is to experience Africa close-up. Smells are suddenly subtle and varied and every sound has significance.

Birds and butterflies are individuals, noticed and studied, not simply rushed past in the race for the bigger game. And when the larger animals appear, they are met at eye level, standing on the same earth. Safety is not an issue – armed, experienced guides and game rangers accompany all walks.
Night Game Drives

The bush is a completely different world at night which is what makes night drives so special. Manyara National Park is currently the only national park that allows this activity, an exciting once in a lifetime experience. At night animals
Wildlife Safaris

Tanzania safaris suit every taste — from budget camping to luxury and lodge safaris, plus fly-camping and hunting options. With a private, tailor-made safari you choose the vehicle, game-drive types and durations; group or fly-in safaris usually follow schedules set by the operator or lodge. Game drives can be long, hot, dusty and bumpy (bring comfortable activewear), and early morning or late afternoon usually offer the best viewing — though animals are unpredictable.
Mountain Climbing

Tanzania’s mountains offer climbs for every explorer — from world-famous Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru to the Crater Highlands and the steep Ol Donyo Lengai crater. Each peak differs in height, climate and difficulty, so choose carefully: Kilimanjaro draws climbers worldwide, Meru (Africa’s fifth highest) rewards summit views of Kilimanjaro and the Momela Lakes, while Lengai’s trek is very steep and suited only to fit, experienced hikers.
Museums and Monuments

The National Museum of Tanzania is a consortium of five Tanzanian museums whose purpose is to preserve and show exhibits about the history and natural environment of Tanzania.

Big Game Fishing

Tanzania’s East African coast offers excellent sea (big-game) fishing — Indian Ocean deep waters teem with marlin, tuna, swordfish, barracuda and plentiful reef species like grouper and red snapper. Still gaining global fame compared with Kenya, Tanzania’s waters are often less crowded and more pristine. The Pemba Channel is a prime route for migratory tuna, while the offshore grounds around Pemba and Unguja deliver rewarding pelagic and big-game catches year-round.
Inland Fishing

The freshwater lakes of Tanzania offer fishing opportunities for visitors willing to venture off the beaten track. Fishing along Lake Victoria offers an opportunity to experience freshwater lake fishing and observe life around the lakes of Tanzania. Fishing trips can be organised from surrounding villages, as well as the larger ports of Mwanza and Musoma, where boatmen will gladly arrange for you to accompany them on their daily trips to net the Nile Perch and Tilapia in the offshore waters. Trips to Rubondo Island National Park also offer fishermen a base from which to embark on trips around the Lake Victoria and its tributaries.
Fly Fishing

Fly fishing along the many rivers and large streams Tanzania is another rewarding experience for sportsmen wanting to experience remote areas at a leisurely pace.

The government of Tanzania is doing all it can to preserve and promote these sites for sustainable use
Beach Experience

The coast of Tanzania is perhaps most famous for the Zanzibar Archipelago, a cluster of islands that saw the growth and survival of Swahili civilisation and trade until the mid-twentieth century.

Zanzibar enchants and beguiles with its oriental mystique and forgotten exoticism — the very name evokes the Spice Islands and the dhow trade, sultans and palaces built of limestone and corals against the palm trees and the crashing surf. But there’s more to the islands of Tanzania than just Zanzibar.
Bush Breakfast with "Bubbly"

Zanzibar and the wider Tanzanian archipelago enchant with their Swahili heritage — spice-scented streets, dhow trade history, limestone-and-coral palaces and an irresistible oriental mystique. Beyond Zanzibar lie deserted islets, sandbars and dramatic ruins: slave caves, colonial graves and sultans’ palaces to explore, while Pemba’s villages keep traditional Swahili life vividly alive.
Out of Africa Bush Dinner

A private and secluded clearing is prepared for an elegant dinner. The surrounding area is lit up with camp fire and fire torches. The call of the wild and the sound of the jungle are complemented by the local beat and dance from the local dancers. Usually a buffet with meats, vegetable, pasta and deserts is set up. After dinner liquors are served around a camp fire.
Sundowner with canapes

Relax with a Sundowner after the day’s excitement. This can be done at the pool or bar of the lodge itself, or at any spot in the wilderness, usually in places with amazing views.

Diving & Snorkeling

Tanzania offers divers world-class reefs and plentiful schools of tropical fish just offshore of the popular beaches and secluded locations.

Dive courses are offered at many of the hotels and lodges on the mainland coast as well as Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia islands, and it is a rewarding skill to learn while on holiday, but the surface swimmer need not to despair since most of the reefs are accessible to snorkelers and equipment are easily rented from dive shops and lodges.

Diving can be done all year-round, however during the rains visibility can be limited
