    Try to avoid this city if possible!

    Try to avoid this city if possible! They have nice pictures of some areas in travelling brochures but this is like 5% of the toal city. Mostly this city is heavily broken roads, mud-walkways, overcrowded, traffic jams and polluted air. When flying to Tanzania try to be it that city not too long. Fly or drive away to your next destination ASAP. And remember - prefer to use (locally represented) agency when travelling longer distances in Tanzania. If something happens with the vehicle (sooner or later it will happen) you have someone who might help you or at least worries about you.

    I liked the outskirts of town - 1hr away from the airport was where I spent most at. The main city was a bit overwhelming and stressful at times, i.e. police officers hunting after foreigners and questioning your presence etc. I had two occasions where I was stopped just like that and the officers asking heaps of questions like where you come from, what your travels purpose was, what do you do, and if you're married (I'm a female solo traveller). I answered all the questions succinctly & clearly. However these officers just somehow would find ways to make it go longer than necessary. One even accused me of not having the right document (I was like what do you mean with the valid passport and visa?!). Anyway, he wanted to take me to the police station and court of law. I had a local driver with me who talked him out of it by giving him some shillings. And he turned to me and said "it's solved". Make sure you always carry your passport or ID documents with you. It's always helpful to know at least a local that you can reach out too when you find yourself trapped in tricky situations. Not much to see either in DAR. Maybe spend more time outside of the city.

    Dar es Salaam is wonderful city to visit.

    Dar es Salaam is wonderful city to visit. It has many interesting sites and amazing high-end restaurants to choose from. We had a wonderful experience at the AKEMI REVOLVING RESTAURANT where my spouse thoroughly enjoyed Lasagna. My grilled chicken was not exactly up to the task but passable. The service was great but the hotel manager Mr. Lorenzo Sachin could do with some PR. He moved around the restaurant totally ignoring some tables (such as ours) while busying himself with customers on other tables. Mr. Sachin, customer equity is important more so in hotel and restaurant industry... Mwenda (Kenya)

    We rented an apartment in the Chelsea hotel. it was one of the cleanest places I’ve ever stayed. The staff was helpful. The location was convenient. Quick walk to the coast. What I liked the most though? The food!!! Wow! We ate dinner here and the curry was one of the best we’ve had. With food like that, you don’t need to go searching out of the hotel. Also, don’t forget to grab a beer and catch the sunset from the rooftop. views for days! 😍

    It was our second time and we would definitely come back only there if we have to come back to dar es salaam. As the place is really simple calm safe and nice, on the beach. The small bungalows are on the beach too. The neighborhood is also very nice. This time we did not like the room they gave us because it was supposed to be with a sea view thus we asked them to change it and they accommodated us very fast.

    Such a lovely hotel! Great staff and great ambience. I checked earlier than the usual time but Humphrey did his best to allocate me a room after a tiring journey. I loved that my room was spacious and clean with great views of the ocean. All in all, you would not regret staying at the Giraffe Beach Hotel. Excellent value for money! It's going down on my list of fantastic hotels in Dar.
