Located along the coast of the Indian Ocean, Dar es Salaam is the largest city in Tanzania and home to a wide range of people and cultures. Known for its beaches, islands, seafood and music, the city is brimming with a variety of activities for every type of tourist. Here are a few of the best things to see while visiting the City of Peace.
This Gothic-style Roman Catholic church is home to the Archbishop of Dar es Salaam. Try to stop by on a Sunday (English mass is available at 8.30am and 11am) to hear the choir and see the amazing architecture.
For those looking to escape the bustling city for a day, Mbudya Island is the perfect place to go for a relaxing respite of beautiful beaches, clear waters and amazing seafood. You can take a short boat ride here from many points along Dar es Salaam’s harbour – just ask a local boatman or arrange a fare near the White Sands Hotel, the Slipway or Kunduchi. Snorkelling and cabanas are available at a price or you can bring your own supplies for a day of rest and relaxation. Read the full travel article here.
