Get to Know Dar es Salaam

It’s alive with energy, people and nightlife, but keep your wits about you.

Dar es Salaam is a typical African city, full of energy, people, bad traffic and corrupt police trying to keep order. It can be overwhelming if you don’t know where to go; if it’s your first time to Africa it might even make you wonder why you decided to go on holiday to East Africa – especially if you arrive at night during the more humid months.

Dar is pretty much divided into the main city and the peninsula, where all the ambassadors stay and the hotels are, such as the Golden Tulip and the Sea Cliff Hotel next to the military base just north of the city centre.
