Savor the Culture: Interactive Cooking Adventure in Tanzania!
Food is life in Tanzania. But this isn’t just a food tour of the city. The day kicks off with a cooking class where we’ll be learning how to make mandazi (sweet doughnuts), Chapati and cook ugali (a staple food in Tanzania). Whilst you’re honing your new craft I’ll tell you all about the culinary specialities of Tanzania, and what the locals eat on pretty much a daily basis. Then it comes to eating!

“Half day around Dar es Salaam”
My wife and I had a great time going from site to site in Dar es Salaam with Kevin. Kevin was a great guide and I am very happy we chose a guide to show us around. We were able to take in a lot more of the city than if we tried to explore on our own.
