Dar Es Salaam Holidays

Located on the shores of the Indian Ocean, Dar es Salaam is the former capital of Tanzania and a sprawling city of over four million inhabitants. With its hot and humid climate, its buzzing atmosphere and blend of archaism and modernity, a trip to Dar es Salaam is a wonderful assault on the senses. Soak up the city’s multiculturalism, visit the busy fish market and take a seat in one of the many small restaurants. If you’ve got some time on your hands, don’t miss a visit to the beautiful nearby beaches – especially Kigamboni beach – and take a tour of the museums including the National Museum.
