Sejarah

Tanzania mungkin merupakan salah satu kawasan tertua yang terus dihuni di Bumi; sisa-sisa fosil manusia dan hominid pra-manusia telah dijumpai sejak lebih dua juta tahun. Baru-baru ini, Tanzania dipercayai dihuni oleh masyarakat pemburu-pengumpul, mungkin orang-orang yang berbahasa Kush dan Khoisan. Kira-kira 2000 tahun yang lalu, orang berbahasa Bantu mula tiba dari Afrika barat dalam satu siri migrasi. Kemudian, para pastoral Nilotik tiba, dan terus berhijrah ke kawasan itu hingga abad ke-18.

Pelancong dan peniaga dari Teluk Parsi dan India Barat telah mengunjungi pantai Afrika Timur sejak awal milenium pertama CE. Islam diamalkan di Pantai Swahili seawal abad kelapan atau kesembilan Masihi. Pantai Swahili akhirnya tumbuh merangkumi beberapa negara kota yang kaya, termasuk Zanzibar dan Kilwa Kisiwani. Zanzibar khususnya menjadi pusat perdagangan Arab Slave, bekas pasar budak di ibu kotanya, Stone Town, kini telah ditukar menjadi daya tarikan pelancongan memperingati perbudakan, dan dengan katedral Anglikan telah dibangun di lokasi bekas cambuk jawatan.

Pada akhir abad ke-19, Imperial Jerman menaklukkan wilayah yang sekarang adalah Tanzania (dikurangi Zanzibar), Rwanda, dan Burundi, dan memasukkannya ke dalam Afrika Timur Jerman. Perjanjian pasca-Perang Dunia I dan piagam Liga Bangsa-Bangsa menetapkan kawasan itu sebagai Mandat British, kecuali kawasan kecil di barat laut, yang diserahkan kepada Belgia dan kemudian menjadi Rwanda dan Burundi).

Pemerintahan Inggeris berakhir pada tahun 1961 setelah peralihan yang relatif damai (berbanding dengan negara jiran Kenya, misalnya) menuju kemerdekaan. Pada tahun 1954, Julius Nyerere mengubah sebuah organisasi menjadi Tanganyika African National Union (TANU) yang berorientasikan politik. Nyerere menjadi Menteri Tanganyika yang ditadbir Inggeris pada tahun 1960 dan terus menjadi Perdana Menteri ketika Tanganyika merdeka pada tahun 1961. Setelah Revolusi Zanzibar menggulingkan dinasti Arab di negara jiran Zanzibar, yang telah merdeka pada tahun 1963, pulau ini bergabung dengan daratan Tanganyika untuk membentuk bangsa Tanzania pada 26 April 1964.

Dari akhir 1970-an, ekonomi Tanzania berubah menjadi lebih buruk. Tanzania juga bersekutu dengan China, meminta bantuan orang Cina. Orang Cina cepat patuh, tetapi dengan syarat semua projek diselesaikan oleh buruh Cina yang diimport. Sejak pertengahan 1980-an, rejim membiayai dirinya dengan meminjam dari Dana Kewangan Antarabangsa dan menjalani beberapa pembaharuan. Dari pertengahan 1980-an, KDNK per kapita Tanzania telah meningkat dan kemiskinan telah dikurangkan.

Geografi

Dataran tinggi pusat yang besar merangkumi sebahagian besar daratan, antara 900 m dan 1800 m. Pegunungan Arc Timur dan Dataran Tinggi Selatan dan Utara melintasi seluruh negara untuk membentuk sebahagian dari Great Rift Valley.

Sebagai tanah yang paling geografis, Tanzania menempatkan puncak tertinggi (Gunung Kilimanjaro), titik terendah (dasar tasik Tasik Tanganyika), dan sebahagian tasik terbesar (Tasik Victoria, dikongsi dengan Uganda dan Kenya) di benua Afrika.

Iklim

Cuaca Tanzania berbeza dari lembab dan panas di kawasan dataran rendah, seperti Dar es Salaam, hingga panas pada siang hari dan sejuk pada waktu malam di Arusha. Tidak ada musim yang dapat dilihat, seperti musim sejuk dan musim panas - hanya musim kering dan basah. Tanzania mempunyai dua musim hujan: Hujan pendek dari akhir Oktober hingga akhir Disember, seperti Hujan Mangga, dan hujan lebat dari bulan Mac hingga Mei.

Banyak pusat peranginan dan tarikan pelancongan yang popular di Zanzibar dan Taman Laut Pulau Mafia ditutup semasa musim hujan yang panjang, dan banyak laluan di taman negara tidak dapat dilalui dalam tempoh ini. Atas sebab itu, dalam kebanyakan kes lawatan dilarang ke jalan utama di taman. Pelancong harus merancang perjalanan mereka dengan sewajarnya.

Semasa musim kemarau, suhu boleh melambung tinggi hingga 35 ° C di Dar es Salaam. Anda harus mencari perlindungan dari cahaya matahari pada waktu tengah hari dan menggunakan sekatan cahaya matahari yang banyak, SPF 30.

Masa terbaik untuk dikunjungi adalah:

• Jun hingga Ogos: Ini adalah hujung ekor musim hujan yang panjang dan cuaca paling baik pada masa ini tahun - tahan pada siang hari dan sejuk pada waktu petang. Namun, ini tidak semestinya waktu terbaik sepanjang tahun untuk safari, kerana air banyak terdapat di taman dan haiwan tidak dipaksa untuk berkumpul di beberapa lokasi untuk menghidrasi semula, seperti yang dilakukan di tengah musim kering tepat selepas Krismas.
• Januari hingga Februari: Ini adalah masa terbaik untuk mengunjungi Serengeti. Pada kebiasaannya, kawanan liar Wildebeest, Zebra dan Buffalo berpindah ke kawasan penggembalaan yang lebih baik. Pada masa ini, anda dapat melihat sekitar 1.5 juta Wildebeest yang menghuni Serengeti melakukan perjalanan epik mereka. Ini kemungkinan besar merupakan musim paling panas sepanjang tahun di Tanzania, walaupun penduduk tempatan mengadu panas. Anda telah diberi amaran!

Orang ramai

Orang Tanzania membentuk lebih daripada 120 kumpulan etnik. Selain orang asli Afrika, ada juga masyarakat India yang berasal dari pendatang era kolonial.

Masuk

Visa

Tidak diperlukan visa untuk penginapan kurang dari 3 bulan untuk warganegara Namibia, Romania, Rwanda, Hong Kong, Makau, Malaysia dan semua negara anggota komanwel (kecuali yang United Kingdom, Kanada, Bangladesh, New Zealand, Nigeria, India & Afrika Selatan). Visa Pelancong berharga AS $ 50 atau US $ 100 untuk visa masuk tiga bulan dan visa masuk tiga bulan masing-masing. Visa boleh dipohon secara dalam talian melalui sistem permohonan visa elektronik kerajaan dan juga diperoleh ketika mendarat di Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro, Mwanza, dan pelabuhan masuk lain. Penantian visa semasa ketibaan sangat lama jika penerbangan anda tiba pada waktu yang sama dengan penerbangan antarabangsa yang lain. Visa adalah sah sepanjang tarikh dikeluarkan. Pemegang pasport A.S. hanya boleh mendapatkan visa masuk masuk AS $ 100 yang sah selama 12 bulan.

Tanzania mempunyai syarat tambahan bagi sesiapa yang tidak berkunjung untuk tujuan pelancongan. Sebarang lawatan perniagaan memerlukan visa perniagaan tertentu yang berharga US $ 250 dan juga dapat dipohon melalui sistem visa elektronik.

Semasa melintasi darat di persimpangan sempadan Namanga (mis. Perjalanan dari Nairobi, Kenya ke Arusha, Tanzania), anda perlu menyeberangi sempadan dengan berjalan kaki. Penipu di tanah tanpa izin antara pejabat kawalan sempadan Kenya dan Tanzania akan mencuba beberapa penipuan, termasuk menawarkan kadar pertukaran mata wang yang keterlaluan dan berpura-pura menjadi pegawai yang menjual setem visa Tanzania. Mereka yang cuba menjual setem visa Tanzania akan bertindak secara rasmi dan meminta untuk melihat pasport anda, kemudian mereka akan meletakkan barang (nota bank kecil Tanzania) di pasport anda, menutup pasport, dan meminta biaya visa semasa ketibaan. Hanya berniaga dengan pejabat imigresen dan bank bersebelahan, yang terletak di bangunan kerajaan yang sudah mapan. Jangan berhenti atau berinteraksi dengan orang-orang di tanah tanpa lelaki di antara mereka.

Sambungan Visa

Sekiranya dengan visa pelancong, tempoh visa boleh diperpanjang selama sebulan tanpa sebarang bayaran tambahan di pejabat imigresen Tanzania di Dar es Salaam.

Dengan kapal terbang

Terdapat dua lapangan terbang utama; satu di Dar es Salaam, Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Julius Nyerere (DAR ^IATA) (sebelumnya dikenali sebagai Mwalimu Julius K. Nyerere International Airport dan Dar es Salaam International Airport), dan satu di Kilimanjaro, Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kilimanjaro (JRO ^IATA), yang berada di tengah-tengah antara Arusha dan Moshi.

Dengan kereta api

Perkhidmatan kereta api Tanzania - Zambia, dikenali sebagai TAZARA, mengendalikan kereta api dua kali seminggu antara Kapiri Mposhi Baru, Zambia, dan Dar es Salaam, berangkat dari Dar es Salaam pada hari Selasa dan Jumaat.

Sebuah rumah tangga Keretapi Tanzania rangkaian menghubungkan bandar-bandar utama Tanzania, termasuk Kigoma, Mwanza, Dodoma, Tabora, dan Dar es Salaam. Perkhidmatan kereta api domestik biasanya boleh dipercayai, dan harga tiket berpatutan. Harga tiket berbeza, bagaimanapun, mengikut 'kelas', biasanya pertama, kedua dan ketiga. Kelas pertama dan kedua masing-masing menawarkan kabin dengan dua dan enam tempat tidur. Kelas ketiga adalah tempat duduk terbuka. Makanan dan minuman panas biasanya disediakan dari tempat makan. Tidak jarang dapur kereta api membeli produk segar di banyak tempat berhenti di sepanjang jalan. Anda juga boleh membeli buah dan makanan ringan secara langsung dari vendor tempatan yang sering menggunakan stesen keretapi di setiap laluan kereta api Tanzania.

Dengan bas

Bas adalah cara terbaik untuk masuk ke Tanzania. Terbang ke tempat seperti Nairobi, maka anda boleh menaiki bas ke Arusha - tempat yang bagus untuk Gunung Meru dan Kawah Ngorongoro. Anda juga tidak boleh melupakan bahagian tengah selatan Tanzania, jauh dari penjaja pelancongan. Jalan raya di Tanzania tidak dalam keadaan baik; tidak ada lebuh raya, dan terdapat sedikit segmen lorong di sepanjang jalan utama. Bas melambatkan atau berhenti di kebanyakan kampung kerana trafik, polis, dan alat penenang kelajuan. Untuk makluman anda, perjalanan dari Dar es Salaam ke Iringa memakan masa sekurang-kurangnya 6 jam dengan kenderaan persendirian. Ini kebanyakannya jalan dua lorong, dibina semula oleh orang Cina, jadi sebahagian besarnya dalam keadaan baik.

Bas ke arah barat dan arah utara yang berlepas dari Dar menuju jalan yang sama (A7) sehingga anda sampai ke Chalinze, yang terletak kira-kira separuh, kurang dari dua jam, antara Dar dan Morogoro.

Sekiranya anda ke Arusha, bas akan menuju ke utara di A17. Destinasi terkenal lain di sepanjang laluan ini adalah Taman Nasional Saandani, Pangani, Tanga, Lushoto, Kilimanjaro, dan Moshi. Dari Arusha, anda juga boleh menaiki bas ke Mwanza dan Kigoma, tetapi setelah anda melewati Kawasan Konservasi Ngorongoro, jalan-jalan dalam keadaan sangat buruk, dan anda akan berada dalam perjalanan yang lebat.

Sekiranya anda terus melewati Chalinze, anda akan melewati Morogoro (juga jalan keluar untuk Dodoma), pintu masuk ke Selous Game Reserve, Taman Nasional Mikumi, pintu utama lama ke Taman Pergunungan Udzungwa, dan Iringa, yang merupakan giliran berangkat ke Taman Negara Ruaha.

Iringa adalah tempat untuk menjelajahi litar selatan, dengan perkemahan baru di pintu Msosa ke Uduzungwas (sisi Iringa taman) dan pintu masuk ke Ruaha (mungkin taman terbaik di Tanzania). Ia adalah tempat yang bagus untuk tinggal selama beberapa hari.

Selepas Iringa, anda akan pergi ke barat, ke Mbeya, atau ke selatan, ke Songea. Pergi ke Mbeya jika anda ingin mengunjungi Tasik Tanganyika, masuk ke Malawi, atau menuju ke utara ke Kigoma. Di utara Mbeya, jalan tidak ditutup, jadi perjalanan ini akan menjadi panjang dan tidak menyenangkan. Sekiranya anda ingin melihat Tasik Nyasa (sebilangan Tasik Malawi), naik bas ke Songea. Walaupun anda berada dalam jarak dekat dengan Mozambique, tidak ada pintu masuk rasmi ke Mozambik.

Akhirnya, jika anda menuju ke selatan Dar, maka anda akan mengambil B2. Ini adalah laluan utama ke Selous dan Sungai Rufiji. Sepanjang perjalanan, anda juga boleh berhenti di Kilwa, Lindi, dan akhirnya Mtwara. Jalan tidak ditutup sepanjang jalan, jadi, sekali lagi, bawa kusyen.

Di luar jalan yang menghubungkan Nairobi, Arusha, dan Dar es Salaam, jalan antara bandar dan kampung lain berada dalam keadaan yang sangat buruk, walaupun perlahan-lahan diperbaiki. Contohnya, perjalanan dari Arusha ke Dodoma adalah lambat. Lebih pantas untuk kembali ke Chalinze dan kemudian menaiki bas ke Dodoma. Ini hampir sama untuk perjalanan antara bandar yang tidak terletak di sepanjang jalan ke Dar.

Bandar sempadan Namanga adalah pos sibuk yang melambangkan sebahagian besar Afrika. Bas juga menunggu di sini untuk anda melintasi sempadan. Anda bahkan boleh turun di sebelah Kenya, berjalan melintasi sempadan, dan naik bas lagi di sebelah Tanzanian.

Dari Dar dengan bas juga boleh melakukan perjalanan ke Malawi, Uganda, dan Rwanda.

Maklumat berguna mengenai tempat letak bas Dar es Salaam ("Ubungo") dan beberapa laluan bas tertentu boleh didapati di Dar es Salaam artikel.

Pastikan anda pergi ke meja penjualan tiket yang sesuai untuk membeli tiket, terutamanya di bandar-bandar besar. Juga, tunjukkan di meja penjualan tiket yang betul sebelum bas dijadualkan berangkat, untuk memastikan bahawa anda diarahkan ke bas yang betul dan daftar masuk barang anda dengan pemandu bas yang sebenarnya. Di terminal bas Arusha, terdapat penipuan di mana orang akan cuba menyamar sebagai orang yang menjual tiket bas dan pemanduan bas.

Laluan bas

Lihat bandar-bandar tertentu untuk maklumat lebih lanjut mengenai laluan bas yang menyediakannya.

• Bas Tahmeed menyambung Mombasa dengan Tanga dan Nairobi melalui Arusha dan Dar di Tanzania.
• Jurulatih Diraja perjalanan ke Arusha, dan merupakan salah satu bas terbaik yang tersedia.
• Dar Express perkhidmatan banyak bandar, termasuk Nairobi, Kenya.
• Sumry, Sutco, dan Upendo menghubungkan bahagian selatan Tanzania yang indah, Iringa dan Mbeya ke Dar dan lebih jauh ke barat daya.
• Syarikat Jurulatih Taqwa mempunyai bas ke dan dari Dar ke Malawi, Zambia dan Kenya.
• Bas Kilimanjaro, perjalanan Arusha -Moshi ke Dar es salaam.
• Bas Abood, perjalanan Dar es salaam ke Morogoro

Dengan bot

Azam Marine dan Fast Feri menghubungkan Dar es Salaam dan Zanzibar. Lebih kurang 90 minit belayar.

Keliling

Dengan bas dan bas mini

Bas adalah cara paling biasa untuk berkeliling di Tanzania. Sebilangan besar bas mempunyai reka bentuk yang sederhana, dan jalannya buruk, walaupun bas udara kelas 1 tersedia di laluan Dar-Moshi-Arusha (Dar Express - pejabat tiket di pusat bandar Libya Street atau pejabat No. 45 di Ubungo). Hampir semua bas masuk dan keluar dari Dar es Salaam. Stesen bas utama di Dar (di mana semua bas pergi), Ubungo, terletak 8 km sebelah barat pusat bandar. Beberapa "bas antarkota" yang lebih baik menyediakan minuman dan biskut percuma untuk anda.

Di Dar, bas mini yang disebut Dala-Dalas dapat dibawa dengan murah ke kebanyakan tempat di dalam kota. Tambang ditulis di bahagian depan di sebelah pintu - biasanya TSh 250 untuk orang dewasa (2011) kecuali untuk jarak yang lebih jauh. Laluan bas juga tersekat di bahagian depan dan sisi bas, mis. 'Posta-Mwenge' dan ada sistem pengekodan warna. Posta (di luar pejabat pos pusat di Jalan Azikiwe / Maktaba) adalah pusat daladala pusat bandar utama. Yang lain adalah Kariakoo, Mwenge, Buguruni, dan Ubungo. Naiklah daladala, duduklah jika ada, dan bayar konduktor ('konda') ketika dia menggegarkan timbunan duit syiling padamu dengan cara yang bermakna. Konda menjerit nama-nama perhentian - jika anda tidak tahu di mana anda berada, atau tidak tahu nama hentian tujuan anda, sukar untuk mengetahui di mana hendak turun. Sekiranya boleh, ada baiknya bertanya kepada seseorang di destinasi anda, kerana perhentian kadang-kadang tidak mempunyai tanda sama sekali - orang 'baru tahu' bahawa sudut jalan tertentu adalah perhentian daladala dan namanya tidak jelas (mis. 'Sudani' di Masaki-Posta talian - berhampiran kediaman duta besar Sudan di Toure Drive). Apabila anda mendengar atau melihat perhentian anda dan mahu turun, berteriak 'Shusha!' (lepaskan saya), konda akan mengetuk casis dua kali, dan pemandu akan segera berpusing ke sebelah dan berhenti. Daladalas tidak terlambat; di sebelah timur bandar yang terbaru adalah laluan Msasani dan Mwenge.

Terdapat juga tuktuk roda tiga / teksi bayi / CNG / bajaj yang kelihatan sekitar. Mereka lebih murah daripada teksi, dan dapat mengatasi kesesakan lalu lintas. Ini mungkin bukan pilihan paling selamat. Anda boleh merundingkan tambang terlebih dahulu, tetapi kadang-kadang pemandu tidak mengetahui tujuan anda (tidak ada 'pengetahuan' Dar es Salaam) dan tidak akan tahu berapa bayarannya. Pemandu secara amnya memetik harga yang cukup berpatutan (mungkin dengan 'cukai kulit' yang berpatutan untuk orang kulit putih) di tempat tujuan dan jika mereka cuba merobek anda, anda biasanya boleh memberitahu oleh orang yang kurang senang. Mungkin berguna untuk mengetahui 'kanan' dan 'kiri' di Swahili: kulia (betul), kushoto (dibiarkan), moja kwa moja (lurus), simama (berhenti), asante kaka (terima kasih saudara).

Peribadi teksi juga merupakan pilihan yang mudah, tetapi pastikan untuk merundingkan harga sebelum anda menggunakannya. Rakan pengembara mungkin dapat memberikan nasihat mengenai harga yang berpatutan. Beberapa tempat (mis. Lapangan terbang Dar es Salaam) mempunyai kartel teksi yang kuat dan harga yang tetap.

Dengan kapal terbang

Sekiranya anda mampu, terbang di sekitar Tanzania lebih pantas dan selamat. Lihat Tanzania # By_plane bahagian di atas. Walaupun jalan raya paling sibuk dalam keadaan buruk, dan pemandu bas tidak terkenal dengan kesabaran atau kemahiran memandu yang hebat. Kemalangan jalan raya meragut lebih banyak nyawa di Tanzania daripada penyebab kematian lain.

Dengan kereta

Amaran: Tidak dinasihatkan untuk memandu di Tanzania, atau di sebahagian besar Afrika, kecuali anda sudah mengalami keadaan memandu di negara-negara membangun. Walaupun demikian, berikut adalah beberapa maklumat berguna bagi mereka yang berfikir untuk menghadapi cabaran tersebut.

Pandu di kiri jalan

• Orang Tanzania memandu di sebelah kiri (seperti di UK, India, Australia, Jepun, dan negara-negara lain), berbanding dengan memandu di sebelah kanan, seperti di Amerika Utara dan kebanyakan negara Eropah. Pemandu yang berpengalaman dari negara "pemanduan kanan" memerlukan kira-kira setengah hari memandu sebelum menyesuaikan diri dengan perubahan. Walaupun pergeseran gear, pengelap cermin depan dan pengaktif isyarat putar terbalik, untungnya, pedal tidak. Ikut lalu lintas sahaja. Walau bagaimanapun, walaupun dengan beberapa latihan, anda harus selalu berwaspada, kerana anda mudah merasa bingung, yang boleh menyebabkan anda berisiko bertembung atau memukul pejalan kaki, jika anda terbiasa memandu di seberang jalan. jalan raya.

Pilihan kenderaan

• Sekiranya anda menyewa kereta ketika sampai di sini, pilihan terbaik anda adalah kenderaan utiliti sukan 4x4 dengan pelepasan jalan yang baik, terutamanya jika anda merancang untuk pergi ke safari di mana-mana taman negara. Cari kenderaan Land Cruiser, Hilux Surf (4Runner), dan Range Rover. Elakkan mini-SUV, seperti Toyota RAV4 dan Honda CRV, kerana mereka tidak selalu dapat merundingkan keadaan jalan yang buruk di kebanyakan taman negara di Tanzania. Isu lain adalah pilihan pacuan 4 roda. Kenderaan dengan 4x4 yang sentiasa aktif bukanlah pilihan terbaik untuk pemanduan di luar jalan raya. Kenderaan ini dirancang untuk memandu di salji di jalan berturap atau melalui lubang lumpur kecil. Apa yang anda hadapi di taman nasional di Tanzania agak berbeza dan menuntut kenderaan pacuan 4 roda yang betul yang mampu melintasi lubang lumpur yang besar dan jalan berpasir. Walaupun begitu, anda mungkin masih buntu.

Navigasi

• Peta Nelles dari Tanzania, Rwanda & Burundi adalah peta terbaik. Mereka meluangkan masa untuk mencari kampung-kampung terkecil di sepanjang laluan, yang sangat bagus untuk menavigasi tempat-tempat di mana tempat-tempat terkenal jarang.
• Terdapat penanda dan tiang konkrit putih di sepanjang jalan utama. Mereka mengenal pasti bandar atau bandar utama seterusnya di sepanjang laluan dan berapa kilometer yang tinggal.

Memandu di bandar

• Ini hanya berlaku di Dar es Salaam, kerana semua bandar dan bandar lain agak kecil dan mudah dikunjungi. Pusat bandar sangat sesak dari 09:00 hingga 18:00, Isnin hingga Jumaat. Terdapat sedikit lampu isyarat, dan jalan-jalan sangat sempit. Ini adalah tempat makan anjing, jadi kemahiran memandu yang menyinggung adalah suatu keharusan, kerana tidak ada yang akan membiarkan anda berlalu jika anda hanya duduk dan menunggu di tanda berhenti. Jalan raya penuh sesak dengan kereta yang diparkir dan bergerak, SUV, lori, skuter, dan lelaki yang sangat berotot menarik kereta yang terlalu berat. Orang ramai boleh menghabiskan berjam-jam dalam kesesakan lalu lintas, terutama di sekitar Pasar Kariakoo.
• Terdapat beberapa bulatan di pusat bandar, yang disebut penduduk tempatan sebagai "keeplefties" kerana mereka menyangka bahawa tanda yang menasihati pemandu untuk "Tetap Kiri" ketika memasuki bulatan bernama penemuan Mzungu yang menarik ini. Mzungu adalah perkataan Swahili untuk orang asing "putih". Ia tidak menghina, dan lebih kepada memanggil orang kulit putih sebagai Kaukasia.
• Semasa meletak kenderaan di jalan di Dar, cari tempat untuk meletak kenderaan, kemudian kunci pintu anda dan pergi. Apabila anda kembali, petugas parkir yang memakai rompi pendarfluor kuning akan menghampiri anda untuk pembayaran. Bayarannya adalah Tsh 300 selama dua jam. Pengawal harus memberikan tiket, atau yang dicentang sudah ada di kaca depan anda. Jangan pergi tanpa membayar sekiranya ada tiket di kaca depan anda. Petugas kemungkinan besar akan terpaksa menebus wang yang hilang, kerana dia mungkin memperoleh, paling banyak, Tsh 3000 sehari.
• Carjacking tidak biasa tetapi membuka pintu atau melompat melalui tingkap terbuka untuk mencuri barang berharga tidak. Pastikan tingkap anda ditutup dan pintu terkunci. Ketika kenderaan dihentikan di lampu isyarat atau diparkir di lokasi yang tidak dijaga, pencuri diketahui mencuri cermin, panel, tayar ganti, dan apa sahaja yang tidak terukir dengan nombor plat kenderaan atau dipasang ke badan kenderaan. Pilih tempat letak kenderaan anda dengan berhati-hati dan jangan tinggalkan barang berharga di tempat yang jelas. Anda boleh memberikan petugas parkir tip kecil untuk memerhatikan kenderaan anda, Tsh 500-1000, atau mencari tempat letak kenderaan yang selamat, terutama jika anda meninggalkan kenderaan anda semalaman.

Laluan

• Dua jalan utama adalah Dar es Salaam ke Mbeya jalan (A7 / A17), yang membawa anda ke Tanah Tinggi Selatan melalui bandar-bandar di Morogoro, Iringa, dan Taman Negara Mikumi, dan berhampiran Taman Negara Selous dan Ruhaha. Jalan lain adalah Dar ke Arusha dan Serengeti jalan (B1), yang membawa anda ke Litar Utara oleh bandar-bandar di Tanga dan Moshi, dan Gunung Kilimanjaro, Saadani, Tanrangire, Ngorongoro dan Taman Negara Serengeti.

Bahaya dan gangguan

• Orang Tanzan memandu dengan sangat pantas dan tidak akan teragak-agak untuk menyimpang dalam lekukan buta. Juga, kebanyakan kenderaan komersial tidak diselenggara dengan baik dan terlalu banyak muatan, dan anda akan melihat banyak kenderaan rosak di lebuh raya utama. tidak pernah menganggap brek mereka berfungsi atau pemandu telah memikirkan sepenuhnya tindakan berbahaya yang mereka jalankan.
• Sebilangan besar jalan di Tanzania tidak diselenggara dengan baik dan dipenuhi dengan jalan berlubang dan alur berbahaya yang terbentuk oleh kenderaan pengangkutan yang terlalu banyak. Semua jalan utama melalui bandar dan kampung, dan sering kali alat penenang lalu lintas (kelajuan atau bonggol jalan raya) memastikan kenderaan mengurangkan kelajuannya ketika melalui. Malangnya, sebilangan kecil ditandai dengan jelas sementara kebanyakan sukar dilihat sehingga anda betul-betul memahaminya, dan jika anda datang terlalu pantas, anda mungkin akan dilemparkan ke luar jalan. Perlahankan semasa memasuki mana-mana bandar, atau anda mungkin tidak dapat mengelakkan bahaya ini dan lain-lain. Sikap memandu yang defensif ini juga berhemah kerana haiwan dan kanak-kanak sering keluar ke jalan.
• Sekiranya anda terlibat dalam kemalangan dengan pejalan kaki, pergi ke balai polis terdekat untuk memberi nasihat kepada mereka. jangan keluar dari kenderaan anda dan cuba menyelesaikan keadaan, walaupun anda yakin itu bukan salah anda. Orang Tanzania adalah beberapa orang paling baik yang akan anda temui di Afrika, tetapi mereka telah diketahui mengambil alih masalah mereka sendiri. Ini sebahagian besarnya disebabkan oleh ketidakpercayaan mereka terhadap polis dan kepercayaan bahawa sesiapa yang mempunyai wang, mis. orang asing yang kaya, boleh membeli jalan keluar dari masalah.
• Sekiranya anda menghadapi konvoi kenderaan kerajaan, minggir. Mereka mempunyai keutamaan, walaupun ini dapat diperdebatkan, dan tidak akan teragak-agak untuk mengusir anda jika anda tidak memberi jalan. Anda juga boleh didenda oleh polis kerana kegagalan anda memberi jalan keluar.

Di Tanzania, anda boleh menentukan pendaftaran kenderaan mengikut warna plat nombor. Kuning plat, bermula dengan "T" dan diikuti oleh tiga nombor, adalah kenderaan milik persendirian. Plat rasmi kerajaan Tanzania juga berwarna kuning, tetapi hanya memaparkan huruf dan biasanya diawali dengan huruf "S" (semakin sedikit huruf, semakin tinggi rantai makanan pemiliknya). Hijau plat adalah diplomatik; Merah adalah agensi pembangunan antarabangsa; Biru adalah PBB dan organisasi yang serupa; Putih adalah teksi, bas dan kenderaan komersial (safari), dan Hitam adalah tentera dan polis. Pengekodan ini tidak berlaku di Zanzibar dan Pemba.

Etika lulus

• Pemandu yang mengikuti anda akan mengaktifkannya betul lampu isyarat putar untuk menunjukkan bahawa mereka ingin melewati anda. Sekiranya jalan itu jelas, aktifkan jalan anda dibiarkan isyarat pusing; jika tidak, aktifkan anda betul isyarat pusing. Cari ini semasa cuba melepasi.

Apa yang perlu dibawa

• Tong sampah besar (20 liter) dengan bahan bakar kecemasan. (Jangan memasuki taman negara tanpa tangki gas penuh.)
• Sekop, parang ("panga" di Swahili), dan tali penarik.
• Peta jalan yang bagus
• Kit pertolongan cemas
• Air minuman, sekurang-kurangnya 5 liter, dan bekalan makanan kecemasan yang tidak mudah rosak.

Sewa kereta - sewa kereta untuk kegunaan peribadi.

Penyewaan kereta di Tanzania mampu milik dan terdapat banyak jip 4WD yang boleh dipercayai seperti Landcruisers dan Landrovers yang boleh disewa. Kereta 4WD selesa dan tahan dengan semua keadaan cuaca di Tanzania. Apabila anda ingin melakukan perjalanan dengan selesa ke mana sahaja di Tanzania, sebagai kawasan luar bandar atau Taman Negara, pilih perjalanan peribadi di Landcruiser atau Landrover.

Terdapat beberapa pengendali pelancongan tempatan (seperti [1]) yang mempunyai armada kereta untuk disewa di lapangan terbang utama seperti Dar es Salaam Julius Nyerere Airport, Kilimanjaro International Airport, bandar-bandar besar dan semua bandar yang berdekatan dengan destinasi pelancongan seperti Moshi, Mwanza, Arusha, dan Karatu di sekitar Ngorongoro.

Lihat

Tanzania mempunyai beberapa taman nasional dan simpanan permainan, di mana anda dapat melihat beberapa taman terbaik Flora dan fauna Afrika. Safaris di Tanzania dapat dimasukkan ke dalam dua kategori, iaitu Litar Utara (Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Manyara dan Tarangire) dan Litar Selatan (Selous, Mikumi dan Ruaha). Ini adalah penyederhanaan yang terlalu tinggi dan tidak termasuk taman-taman lain yang menarik, tetapi lebih sukar dijangkau, seperti Katavi dan Gombe, untuk menyebut hanya dua. Bagi pelancong, dua kumpulan pertama lebih mudah dicapai, kerana pelbagai pakej ditawarkan oleh beberapa syarikat pelancongan.

Harga Safari

Kos safari boleh bermula dari asas (khemah terbang, layan diri dan panduan dengan kenderaan) hingga taman yang lebih kecil seperti Manyara dan Tarangire, ke pondok-pondok mewah dan khemah khemah di Serengeti yang berharga antara AS $ 250 hingga US $ 1,500 setiap orang setiap malam. Anda boleh menggunakan kenderaan anda sendiri, asalkan ia berukuran 4x4 dengan jarak yang mencukupi. Terdapat faedah untuk menyewa pemandu dan kenderaan kerana kenderaan safari dilengkapi dengan bumbung terbuka yang memberikan tempat yang lebih baik untuk melihat haiwan. Juga, banyak taman memerlukan anda menyewa panduan bertauliah sebelum memasuki taman, walaupun anda menggunakan kenderaan anda sendiri. Panduan boleh berharga sekitar AS $ 35 sehari ditambah tip. Panduan bagus untuk dimiliki kerana mereka mengetahui taman dan dapat membantu anda mencari beberapa haiwan yang lebih dicari seperti singa, macan tutul, badak, cheetah dan hyena.

Beberapa syarikat safari yang lebih popular adalah Warrior Trails, Ranger tours & Leopard tour. Syarikat popular lain yang dinilai oleh Tanzania Association of Tour Operators termasuk Ajabu Adventures, Bush2Beach Safaris, Bushmen Expeditions, Fay Safaris dan Tanzania Tour Company. Serena dan Sopa adalah tempat penginapan yang popular dan mempunyai kemudahan di Litar Utara. Namun, jangan diskaun menggunakan lawatan yang lebih kecil dan kemudahan penginapan yang kurang dikenali, sama baiknya jika tidak lebih baik daripada lawatan dan pondok yang lebih besar.

Untuk harga yang lebih baik dan beberapa taman yang paling indah mengelakkan kesesakan lalu lintas kenderaan safari, pergi ke litar selatan, terutamanya Taman Negara Ruaha di mana kawasan hidupan liar jauh lebih besar dan pemandangannya menakjubkan. Iringa adalah tempat yang bagus untuk mendasarkan diri anda untuk menerokai kawasan ini dan menyelesaikan perjalanan safari anda.

Untuk mana-mana lawatan berikut yang kelihatan dalam talian, anda akan menjumpai syarikat terkenal seperti Worldlink Travel dan tour, yang harganya berpatutan dan menjadikan perjalanan itu menyeronokkan dan bebas dari tekanan.

Pemandangan hidupan liar

• Serengeti Taman Negara, terkenal oleh banyak spesialis Discovery Channel, menjadi tuan rumah pelbagai jenis hidupan liar, termasuk singa, cheetah, macan tutul, kuda nil, gajah, zebra, kerbau, air, buaya, gazelle, warthog, dan wildebeest. Salah satu tarikan utama adalah penghijrahan liar, yang berlaku secara berterusan antara Serengeti dan Masai Mara (Kenya). Diperlukan panduan dengan kenderaan pacuan 4 roda. Sekiranya penghijrahan adalah tujuan utama anda untuk mengunjungi Serengeti, anda harus memberi nasihat kepada syarikat pelancongan anda kerana ini mungkin memerlukan perjalanan jauh lebih jauh dan mungkin lebih mahal.
• Ngorongoro Kawasan Pemuliharaan juga menjadi tempat tinggal banyak hidupan liar, terutama di kawah Ngorongoro. Dibentuk oleh aktiviti gunung berapi yang sama yang menghasilkan Kilimanjaro dan Great Rift Valley, Ngorongoro terdiri dari dataran tinggi di sekitar kawah (kaya dengan gajah) dan kawah itu sendiri (haiwan yang serupa dengan Serengeti, tetapi pada kepadatan yang lebih tinggi dan dengan populasi kecil badak hitam ).
• Taman Negara Ruaha dan Rizab Permainan Selous jauh kurang popular tetapi sangat menyeronokkan. Anda akan menemui pelbagai jenis hidupan liar yang lebih besar daripada yang anda lakukan di Serengeti, jika anda mencari destinasi dengan lebih sedikit pelancong taman-taman ini sesuai untuk anda. Ruaha terkenal dengan populasi gajah dan zirafah terbesar di mana-mana taman di Afrika dan sering digelar dengan nama 'Giraffic Park', ia juga merupakan tempat yang baik untuk melihat bangga singa dan anjing pemburu yang sukar difahami dan jarang. Selous adalah satu-satunya tempat lain selain Ngorongoro di mana anda mungkin melihat badak. Anda juga boleh mengunjungi Taman Pegunungan Uduzungwa untuk mendaki hutan belantara melalui pemandangan yang belum terjamah dan menakjubkan. Terdapat beberapa tempat di dunia seperti ini. Dengan pintu baru dibuka di Iringa sisi taman dengan perkhemahan yang hebat, ia adalah tambahan yang bagus untuk lawatan ke Tanzania.
• Taman Negara Tarangire is in the northern circuit of Tanzania and was named after the Tarangire river flowing within the park. The park area is approximately 2,600 km². Similar to Serengeti, the park has a high concentrations of wildlife during the dry seasons. Also, over 570 bird species have been identified, and the place is surely a birdwatchers' paradise. Safari accommodation is available in quality safari lodges and campsites.

When visiting wildlife parks be sure to stay as close to the viewing areas (center of the parks) as possible and leave as soon as you can in the morning as animals are typically most active soon after sunrise.

Kepulauan

• Zanzibar is an island off the coast of Tanzania and includes the island of Pemba. Zanzibar has beautiful beaches and a historical Stone Town. Zanzibar is great for scuba diving, snorkeling, and swimming with dolphins. Other attractions include spice tours and the Jozani Forest, which shelters a small population of red Colobus monkeys.
• Pulau Mafia Marine Park is south of Zanzibar and boasts some fantastic scuba diving and snorkeling. You may also get to swim with whale sharks, as this is one of the few areas in the world where they congregate annually.
• Bongoyo Island is easy to get to with a boat from Slipway. It has a remarkable beach with excellent snorkeling in clear water, although you may be better off taking your own snorkels as renting is costly. The island is not tide dependent, therefore you can swim at any time. There is a resident price and a 'muzungu' price' but still quite reasonable.
• Sinda Island is a small uninhabited island of ínner sinder' and outer sinder'.
• Mbudya Island can be accessed from Silver Sands hotel. The water is amazing although it looks clear you cannot snorkel in it as it is surprisingly murky underneath the surface.
• Lazy Lagoon There are 12 rooms on the private 9 km-long white sandy island with deserted beaches. It boasts swimming at all tides in clear azure blue water, ideal for snorkelling to be mesmerized by the shoals of iridescent tropical fish hiding among the pristine coral gardens that protect the island. The island is accessed from the mainland, just south of Bagamoyo town 70 km north of Dar es Salaam. It is home to bushbabies, wild pigs, genets, baboons, duiker, and Suni antelope. The bandas were well appointed and have solar-powered hot water, a large shady verandah with spacious rooms and big windows.

Mountains

• Gunung Kilimanjaro is the highest peak in Africa and one of the highest freestanding mountains in the world. Many people travel to Tanzania just to climb this mountain. Does tend to be crowded with tourists. You can either organize your trek up the mountain from your home country through a travel agency, but you'll pay a lot more for this convenience, or, if you've got a bit of time, hop on plane and save some money by organizing it in Arusha or in Dar. There are as many incompetent and dishonest trek organizers as there are good ones. Make sure your guide will deliver on his promises.
• Mt Meru is an active stratovolcano located 70 km (43 mi) west of Mount Kilimanjaro in the nation of Tanzania. At a height of 4,565 m (14,977 ft), it is visible from Mt Kilimanjaro on a clear day, and is the ninth or tenth highest mountain in Africa, dependent on definition. Much of its bulk was lost about 8,000 years ago due to an eastward volcanic blast, similar to the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens in the U.S. state of Washington. Mount Meru most recently had a minor eruption in 1910. The several small cones and craters seen in the vicinity probably reflect numerous episodes of volcanic activity.

Adakah

• There are loads of Taman Kebangsaan for those wanting to watch Tanzania's wildlife. You can gain entry for around US$100 and benefit from a tour (and perhaps a night's accommodation). The better parks, though packed with tourists, are found in the north of the country. Ruaha National Park is the best in the south (locals actually say this is the best park, especially if you want to see wild animals as opposed to semi-tame ones in the northern parks). Don't just be sucked into the tourist circuit in the north; the south offers great parks and towns (base yourself in Iringa), and you will feel less of a tourist and more of a guest if you travel this way.
• Menyelam skuba in and around Pemba and Zanzibar is another good experience.
• You can also visit numerous historical Slave Trade sites bertempat di Bagamoyo, which could make for an interesting, if a little depressing, excursion.
• Pantai: Tanzania has some of the best, most unspoiled beaches in the world. They are stunning, with their white sand, palm trees, and cool Indian Ocean water!
• Kayak the beautiful coastal waters with a tour operator.
• Tanzania has two of the best Stone Age sites in the world: Isimila Gorge (near Iringa) and the earliest known examples of human art among the rock paintings, near Kolo, north of Kondoa, Dodoma -- some of which are reckoned to be around 30,000 years old.
• Kilimanjaro is one of Tanzania's main attractions. Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa. Many visitors come to Tanzania to summit this great mountain. The main peak is estimated to be 5895 m high, making it a real challenge for mountaineers.
• ^{[pautan mati]}Kilimanjaro Travel (Camping Safaris), Boma Road, Rindi Lane, ☏ 255784559111. Camping safaris in Tanzania is most loved safari tours in Tanzania. Camping safaris is on several travel categories like luxury mobile camps, luxury tented camps. There is also most affordable and comfortable basic camping safaris. Basic camping safaris is also known as budget camping safaris.
  Camping safaris is widely used for wildlife safaris and vacation holidays. Camping safaris can be planned for photographic safaris, ecotourism, budget Tanzania safaris, bird watching, walking safaris and responsible travel. 

Bercakap

Bahasa Swahili and English are the official languages of Tanzania. Swahili however is the dominant language of society, with English largely limited to commerce and higher education. Over 100 different languages are also spoken by individual ethnic groups, though Swahili is almost universally spoken across the country.

Masa hari

This is where a little knowledge of Kiswahili can cause some inconveniences. Tanzanians don't function on the same time as Westerners. This doesn't mean Africa time, which is the notion that appointments are flexible and people can arrive when they please. For Tanzanians, it's illogical that the day would start in the middle of the night.

Since sunrise and sunset happen pretty much at the same time all year round, 6AM and 6PM, the day starts at 6AM which is 0 hours. So when telling time in Kiswahili, Tanzanians always subtracted 6 hours for western time. 11AM is 5AM to a Tanzanian. To avoid any confusion, a Tanzanian will tell time in English if they want to use the western standard and in Kiswahili if they use local standard.

In Kiswahili, if you say Saa kumi na moja asubuhi (11AM), instead of Saa tano asubuhi (5AM), you'll end up waiting for 6 hours if the person arrives on time, plus however long it takes to arrive fashionably late!

Exchange rates for Tanzanian shilling Pada Januari 2020: US$1 ≈ TSh 2,300 €1 ≈ TSh 2,600 UK£1 ≈ TSh 3,000 Kadar pertukaran berubah-ubah. Kadar semasa untuk mata wang ini dan mata wang lain boleh didapati dari XE.com

The currency of Tanzania is known as the Tanzanian shilling, denoted by the symbol "TSh" or by "/="atau"/-" following the number (ISO code:TZS). There are 5 notes and 4 coins:

• Notes - 10,000 (red); 5,000 (violet); 2,000 (brown); 1,000 (blue), and 500 (green) {500 have been changed to coins} denominations.
• Coins - 500, 200, 100 and 50 denominations.

Notes and coins vary in size and colour. In descending size order, TSh 10,000 is the largest note, and 500 is the smallest.

Tanzanian currency exchangers usually have a different exchange rate for different US$ denominations, larger and newer bills having a better exchange rate than older and smaller bills. The difference in exchange rate between $1/$5 bills and $50/$100 bills may exceed ten percent. Older US$100 notes are no longer accepted in Tanzania, and any note older than 2003 will most likely be refused everywhere. Also, it's best to avoid attempting to exchange notes with pen marks or any writing on them. If you withdraw a large amount of money, in the range of US$400, you'll have to carry over 40 notes around!

The TSh 10,000 and 5000 notes can be difficult to break when shopping in small shops, a.k.a. dukas. In Tanzania, it's usually the customer's responsibility to provide exact change. But if they do agree to provide change, you could be left with several 1000 and 500 notes of very poor quality. However, you won't have such problems in the large hotels and restaurants catering to foreigners.

In general, stores, restaurants, and hotels in Tanzania expect payment in Tanzanian shillings. Exceptions include payment for travel visas, entry fees to national parks (which must be paid in US dollars by non-residents), and payments for safaris and Kilimanjaro treks, which are generally priced in US dollars (though payment will be also accepted in other currencies). On Zanzibar, prices are generally in US dollars (including the ferry fare from Dar es Salaam to Zanzibar), and non-residents are required to pay for hotels with foreign currency (although the hotel will change Tanzanian shillings for you).

Most hotels will exchange US dollars, euros and British pounds for Tanzanian shillings. Other currencies, such as Canadian or Australian dollars, may be accepted but at rates far below the going rate.

ATMs are mostly located in the city centre and on the Msasani Peninsula. Equity Bank and Ecobank, ATM work with Mastercard, PLUS, Cirrus, Union Pay, American Express, JCB, Diners club, Discover compatible cards. If you have a PIN code for your credit card, almost all Tanzanian banks with ATMs will allow cash advances on credit cards like Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Union Pay, JCB, Diners Club, Discover cards. If the ATM reports your home balance in TSh, you may be pleasantly surprised to find that you're a "shillionaire". Equity bank and Ecobank have no ATM fees for overseas bank cards at their ATMs. Barclays bank has a US$4 fee for all overseas banks cards at their ATMs.

Traveller's cheques have become virtually impossible to cash in all banks in Tanzania. Since ATMs are much more prevalent, using credit cards to withdrawals from your personal accounts is much easier now days.

Kad kredit can be used in big supermarkets, malls, large hotels, resorts, and with certain travel agents.

Membeli-belah

There are many markets in tourist cities that sell standard "African" goods. Beaded jewellery, carved soapstone, and Masai blankets make interesting gifts. Most "ebony" wood is fake (shoe polish) - the exception being in the far south-east of the country, where the Makonde tribe of Tanzania and Northern Mozambique create masks and other carvings from ebony and mpingo wood. Be prepared to bargain for everything. Masks are not typical of most East African groups, and the ones you find in the markets are either imported from West Africa or are strange things made just for tourists, with the exception of the Makonde masks.

Tinga Tinga paintings, named after the painter who originated that style, are for sale everywhere. Their distinctive style and colors make for attractive souvenirs. A standard size painting can be had for TSh 5,000-10,000. There is a Tinga Tinga school in Dar es Salaam, where you can purchase paintings from the artists themselves.

Air freight

If you happen to buy too many goodies during your travels, it is possible to send them home air freight. Many airlines will allow you to check additional parcels when you fly, for a fee, which probably makes the most sense if you're going straight home. But if you're continuing on, air freight might be the way to go. Many listed rates do not include 20% VAT, or a "fuel surcharge" of 13.5% as of 2008.

• DHL. Offers quite pricey service (e.g. about US$300 for a 10-kg package to the US) but is conveniently located in Dar city centre, as well as in a bunch of other cities (see web site). Will deliver direct to the recipient in most countries. 
• KLM (go to the old terminal at DAR airport). Offers slightly more reasonable rates than DHL (e.g. about US$100 for a 10-kg package to the US) but requires a trip to the airport and about 1 hour of paperwork & waiting. You must pay cash, in US dollars, plus some fees in shillings. Customs will want to go through the package, so bring something to (re)seal it. You can first go to the KLM freight office (look for the sign), then to the cargo building further down the same road, or call ahead and be met at cargo. If you just arrive at cargo you will be swarmed by freight forwarders - to find the KLM staff, look for the KLM logo (e.g. on a lanyard) or call ahead (☏ 255 714 474 617). Despite what you might be told, someone will need to go to the destination airport to pick up the package - it will not be delivered to an address by KLM. Storage charges will accrue if it's left for very long. 
• EMS. EMS is a branch of the Tanzanian postal service, and is the cheapest way to send packages. It's available at most larger town post offices. But shipping time can be quite long, and delivery is not always reliable. Also there are size/weight restrictions. Packages will be transferred to the local postal service at destination, which usually provides direct delivery. 
• Fedex. Fedex have offices in Arusha, Dar es Salaam and Mwanza, and like DHL, they are also pricey. 

Makan

• Produce is often of very high quality. Meat and milk can prove difficult for western taste and diets, so be sure that all meat is cooked through. At hotels, you won't have any trouble, but if you venture into small villages, make sure that all water is filtered or boiled before drinking and all fruits and vegetables are peeled before eating.
• Hidangan tempatan termasuk Mtori - cooked beef and bananas - and Mchicha, a vegetable stew with meat or fish in it.
• If there is anything that can be called Tanzania's national dish, then Ugali would most likely win out. A polenta-style dish made with corn flour, it accompanies cooked meat and a variety of stews, and it's eaten with your hands. Recipes vary from village to village, and everyone has their own way of making it. Many foreigners find it bland and unappealing, but it's worth a try, and some upscale establishments serve it.
• Chai Maziwa (chai with milk) is a local favorite and well worth trying if you can handle the large amounts of sugar added to this drink.
• Street food is also cheap and plentiful. Barbecued maize on the cob is very nice, as are the chipped potatoes (fries), cooked over a roaring fire.
• Mandazi is a sweet doughnut-styled food that is mostly made fresh each morning. Great with coffee in the morning, it makes an ideal snack.
• Tanzania's large South Asian community ensures that a great variety of restaurants offer cuisine from all parts of that region of the globe. All eateries near Hindu temples (particularly in Dar) are a good bet. Just watch where the local Indians go to eat, and you won't be disappointed. Most of the food is cooked in large amounts of Ghee, clarified butter, which can be hard for some people to digest.
• Chips Mayai (chips cooked in an omelet) are served at nearly every African food stand in Tanzania and are considered a Tanzanian specialty. They're quite good with pili pili (hot sauce).

Minum

• Konyagi is a wonderful gin-like beverage, sold only in Tanzania.
• Domestic beers are Kilimanjaro, Serengeti,Balimi, Pilsner, Kibo dan Safari, which are western-style and very good. Imports include Tusker, Stella Artois, and Castle.
• Locally produced banana-beer is also available at times, but questionably safe to drink. Traditionally, you will drink this out of a hollowed gourd. First drink the guests, who then pass it to the elders. In some parts of Tanzania, fermented bamboo juice (Pombe) is the common tipple.
• Passion fruit, mango, and orange juices are available in many restaurants, and excellent when the fruits are in season.
• Minuman ringan are widely available; Stoney Tangawizi (ginger ale - tangawizi means 'ginger', in Swahili) is one of the most popular.
• Mbege, a locally made drink made up of ripe bananas and finger millet, commonly in the northern Tanzania from the chagga community in the Kilimanjaro region.
• Other popular beverages are Fanta Orange, Fanta Passion, Fanta Pineapple, Pepsi, mirinda, Bitter Lemon, soda water, tonic water, and lassi (a sweet or salty yogurt drink).
• Northern Tanzania has a number of great coffee plantations. Although coffee does not have the same popularity in Tanzania as it has in Ethiopia, with a bit of searching you can find a decent cup of java, instead of the instant "Africa" coffee that is served in most restaurants. All large hotels in Dar make good coffee. If you want to brew your own cup, Msumbi Coffee Shop, 255 22 260 0380, Sea Cliff Village, sells Tanzanian coffee beans ground or whole, roasted on the premises.

Tidur

Be sure to avoid touts. If you are travelling as a couple, a good idea is for one person to sit in a lobby or restaurant with the bags, while the other scopes out rooms. You are likely to get a cheaper price without the bags, and not be targeted by sneaky touts that will raise the price US$5-10 for you for their commission.

Belajar

Various schools and volunteer programs offer courses ranging from Beginners Swahili to Economic Development. Dar es Salaam also has a well-established university, which has exchange programs with several universities in the US and other countries.

Kerja

There is a wide assortment of volunteer organisations sending volunteers and interns to Tanzania to do work in health care, orphanages, education, and development projects. Finding a paying job may be more of a daunting task, taking more time and making use of local connections, but a job could be certainly obtainable when sought hard enough.

Kekal selamat

Kecurian

As in many impoverished countries, caution should always be exercised, particularly in tourist areas, such as Arusha, Stone Town (Zanzibar), and Dar es Salaam. Violent crime against foreigners is not uncommon, particularly against those walking alone at night, which is not recommended. Pickpocketing and con artists are also common. Pencopet work crowded markets, like Kariakoo, and bus stations. Don't be fooled by small children who are often forced into a life of crime by older kids or parents -- never carry anything of value in your pockets and don't let expensive camera equipment dangle from your neck. Don't leave bags unattended or even out of your sight when on the beach.

See specific area or city articles for details.

In general, avoid isolated areas, especially after dark. Travelling in large groups is safer. If there are many people or security guards around (e.g. city center areas) you should be relatively safe.

The safest way to travel is by taxi with a driver you know, especially when it's dark out (late night or early morning). Although it's uncommon, taxi drivers have been known to rob tourists. Get the number for a taxi you trust, from your hotel or a local.

Buses have infrequently been stopped by robbers on long-distance (often overnight) routes. If you have to travel a long distance by bus, it might be better to break it into multiple day-only trips, or to travel by plane or train.

In the event of an incident, the police may or may not make a strong effort to identify the culprits, but obtaining a police report is necessary if you plan on filing an insurance claim later, or if important documents are stolen. Make sure the police report indicates if your papers were stolen; otherwise you may have difficulty leaving the country. You should immediately contact your local embassy or consulate in the event that your passport is taken.

Berjalan

There are very few sidewalks in Tanzania, always pay careful attention to the traffic and be prepared to move out of the way, as vehicles do not make much effort to avoid pedestrians. In Tanzania, cars have priority.

The best way to avoid touts, sellers, dealers etc., when they inevitably come up to you and say "jambo" is to either say nothing, or to say "thank you" or "asante", and to keep moving. Some may be offended by 'no', and persistent touts will be encouraged by any kind of interaction at all.

Corruption

Tanzania, like many developing countries, suffers from corruption. Police are poorly paid - many make less than US$40/month. You may be solicited for a bribe by an official willing to turn a blind eye to your infraction, fabricated or otherwise. Some travellers are very much averse to paying bribes to anyone, especially in a country with so many needy but honest citizens.

Fraudsters are known to impersonate police, sometimes in the guise of an "immigration official" who identifies a problem with your documents. They will flash official-looking papers at you. But there are many plainclothes officers as well. And if you are confronted with someone in uniform, they will almost certainly be an actual officer.

On-the-spot-fine is one term used for a bribe. Those words are meant to initiate a conversation about money. You may be told that the real fine is TSh 40,000 or more and that for TSh 20,000 or 30,000, paid immediately, you can be on your way and avoid a trip to the Police Station to pay a higher fine.

If you are certain you are in the right, and do not want to pay a bribe, some strategies are:

• Involve other people. Fraudsters or corrupt officials are unlikely to pursue their schemes near an audience. You can ask bystanders for help on the pretext of not understanding the officer.
• Invoke higher powers. Insisting on going to the local police station is a good way to make an illegitimate issue go away. Suggesting a visit to your country's embassy (e.g. to have an official there help translate the conversation, due to one's poor knowledge of the local language and laws) is also effective. At this point, they usually have a look of horror on their face, since they don't want any real officials involved. Asking for bribes is illegal, and there is an office of corruption where they can be reported.
• Play dumb. Politely explain to the person that you don't understand the nature of the infraction, even if you do. Tanzanians are not direct, and prefer to imply what they want, instead of asking outright. Tell them you've only just arrived in the country, even if it's your 100th visit. If you know some Kiswahili, don't let on. It may only make things harder.
• Insist a receipt with an official stamp -- a request that is most likely to be met with confusion and concern. The idea is to show that you don’t know that this is actually a bribe and that you simply try to play by the rules. Hopefully, after 10 or 20 minutes of a circular, but always polite, conversation, they may send you on your merry way. A word of caution about this approach: corrupt officials have become wise to this and in one case a person requesting a receipt was told the cashier's office was closed and would not open until the next morning. The options were to pay the fine or spend the night in prison. It appears this was not a bluff on the part of the officer. The fine was paid and no receipt was issued. The game is constantly changing.

Also:

• Discussing money or negotiating the fine may encourage the perception that you understand the nature of the conversation (i.e. you are willing to pay a bribe).
• Directly accusing the officer of corruption is likely to be counter-productive; it is important that you allow the officer to save face.
• If you insist on going to the police station, you may be expected to give the officer a ride. If you are alone, and especially if the "officer" is plainclothes, this may not be a good idea. If you are approached by multiple people and are alone, under no circumstances get in their vehicle - insist on taking a taxi. And once you get to the station, just pay whatever fine is quoted and insist on a receipt. This may end up costing you more than the bribe, but at least this cop won't get any money out of you, and he/she may think twice before flagging down other foreigners. Also, demonstrate respect for their authority, never raise your voice, and never swear or insult them. Whether you are right or not does not matter at that point.

Finally: incidents of excessive force involving tourists are rare, but that doesn’t mean it cannot happen. For instance, police have been known to be drunk on the job, which can seriously inhibit their ability to reason. As in any situation where someone is trying to get money out of you, by force or threat of force, it's better to be safe than sorry; it's only money.

Kekal sihat

Bottled air is cheap and widely available throughout the country. You shouldn't drink the tap water unless you have no other option, and it must either be filtered with a high quality filter and purifier or brought to a boil before consumption. Tests on tap water have found it contaminated with e-coli bacteria.

Illnesses and diseases

As in most African countries, the AIDS/HIV infection rate is high. Tanzania's HIV / AIDS infection rate was 5% among ages 15-49 according to a 2015 UNAIDS estimate [2]. This figure is deceiving, however, since several distinct segments of the population, such as artisanal miners, itinerant fisherman, truck drivers, and sex workers, have HIV infection rates significantly higher than the national average. Do not have unprotected sex in Tanzania or anywhere else, for that matter.

After food-borne illnesses, malaria should be your greatest concern. Malaria is transmitted by mosquitoes and is endemic to Tanzania. You may find yourself at risk in almost every part of the country, although this risk is diminished at altitudes above 2000 m. Care should always be taken between sunset and sunrise, especially during the rainy season. Always sleep under a treated net; wear trousers and closed footwear, and use an effective repellent. It's amazing, but many large hotels don’t automatically install mosquito nets in their rooms. However, a call to the reception requesting one is seldom ignored. In some cases, the nets have several large holes, but a bit of adhesive tape or tying a small knot to cover the hole should do the trick.

Prior to leaving for Tanzania, you may also wish to consult a physician about taking some anti-malarial medication -- before, during, and after your trip. If, in spite of your best efforts, you do contract malaria, it is usually easily treated with medication that is readily available throughout most of the country. If you plan on being in isolated locations, you may wish to drop by a clinic and purchase a batch. Symptoms associated with malaria can take up to two weeks before manifesting themselves. The rule of thumb for ex-pats living in Tanzania is this: Any fever lasting more than a day should be cause for concern and necessitate a trip to the clinic for a malaria test. Upon your return home, should you show signs of a possible malaria infection, notify your doctor that you’ve visited a malaria-infected country.

Other major illnesses to avoid are typhoid dan cholera. In theory, typhoid can be avoided by carefully selecting food and drink and by avoiding consumption of anything unclean. Typhoid infection, according to the U.S. Pusat Kawalan dan Pencegahan Penyakit (CDC), is marked by 'persistent, high fevers...headache, malaise, anorexia, splenomegaly, and relative bradycardia.'

Cholera infection is marked by vomiting and sudden, uncontrollable bowel movements, which can dehydrate and ultimately kill the sufferer within 48 hours. It is important to seek medical attention as quickly as possible. Cholera is more or less a seasonal phenomenon in Zanzibar, where outbreaks frequently occur during the rainy seasons. Vaccines and/or oral prevention are available for both typhoid and cholera.

Yellow fever is an acute viral disease transmitted through the bite of a particular mosquito. Although not as common as malaria, it is nonetheless a serious disease, and travelers to Africa should consult a physician about being vaccinated against it. If you plan on traveling to other countries after your stay in Tanzania, some countries, such as Afrika Selatan, may require proof that you’ve been vaccinated against Yellow Fever before allowing you to enter the country. If you aren’t or can’t prove it, you will be offered two options: 1) receive the Yellow Fever vaccination at the airport, and 2) immediately leave the country. The Yellow Fever vaccine (as any vaccine) can have side effects for some people, so you may wish to get the vaccine in your home country, under controlled conditions. Most physicians will not administer the Yellow Fever vaccine to children under the age of 1 year, and a letter from a physician explaining this will ensure that your infant child will not receive the vaccine at the airport.- People travelling to Tanzania from India, There is acute shortage of the yellow fever vaccine in India so please get yourself vaccinated at the airport in Dar-es-Salaam as soon as you land there.

Gastrointestinal Distress, a.k.a. traveler’s diarrhea, is the result of one, some, or all of the following factors: Unhygienic food preparation and storage, changes in diet, fatigue, dehydration, and excessive alcohol consumption. Prevention is your best defense. Eat only raw vegetables and fruits you can peel and which have been rinsed in clean water. Avoid street or restaurant food that appears to have been left in the open for an extended period of time. Eat only freshly fried or steamed food. You should drink only bottled water, which is available throughout the country. You should even brush your teeth with it. If you must drink tap or well water, boil it for a minimum of 10 minutes or use a high quality filter.

Rift Valley Fever: In January 2007, there was an outbreak of RFV in the Kilimanjaro area. Consumption of unpasteurized milk and improperly cooked meat from infected cows led to a number of deaths in the area. Following the deaths, beef sales dropped sharply all over the country, despite the limited scope of the infection. In general, meat served in upscale restaurants is of superior quality. However, care should be taken when indulging in street foods or when eating in remote areas.

Insects and animals

Tanzania has its fair share of venomous and deadly insects and animals, such as Black and Green Mambas, scorpions, spiders, stinging ants, lions, sharks, and others. You should take care when walking through high grass; when visiting national parks, or when shoving your hand under rocks or into dark holes -- unless you know what you are doing. In actuality, the likelihood of encountering these and other similar dangers is remote.

The insect/animal most residents fear is the mosquito.

Medical facilities

Hospitals and dispensaries in Tanzania do not meet western standards. If you require surgery or any complex medical procedure you will have to be evacuated to Kenya, South Africa or Europe. You should ensure your medical insurance covers such expenses. Outside of Dar es Salaam, and especially outside of the larger cities and towns, you will be hard pressed to get even basic medical help as many doctors are poorly trained and/or have limited equipment and medication. You should ensure you have your own medical kit to hold you over in case of an emergency. Misdiagnoses are frequent for even common ailments such as malaria, as high as 70% of the cases.

Hormat

Ramadan Ramadan is the 9th and holiest month in the Islamic calendar and lasts 29–30 days. Muslims fast every day for its duration and most restaurants will be closed until the fast breaks at dusk. Nothing (including water and cigarettes) is supposed to pass through the lips from dawn to sunset. Non-Muslims are exempt from this, but should still refrain from eating or drinking in public as this is considered very impolite. Working hours are decreased as well in the corporate world.Exact dates of Ramadan depend on local astronomical observations and may vary somewhat from country to country. Ramadan concludes with the festival of Aidilfitri, which may last several days, usually three in most countries. 13 April – 12 May 2021 (1442 AH) 2 April – 1 May 2022 (1443 AH) 23 March – 20 April 2023 (1444 AH) 11 March – 9 April 2024 (1445 AH) 1 March – 29 March 2025 (1446 AH) If you're planning to travel to Tanzania during Ramadan, consider reading Travelling during Ramadan.

In general, tourists should wear modest or conservative attire, especially in Zanzibar, which is a conservative Muslim society. Western women should not wear clothing that reveals too much skin. 'Kangas', brightly-colored wrap-around cloth, are affordable, available throughout the country, and can serve as a discreet covering.

The Masai people, with their colorful clothing, are tempting targets for any tourist with a camera. However, they expect to be paid for it, and you should always ask before taking pictures.

It is common practice among Swahili-speakers to use 'shikamoo' (prounounced 'she ka moe' and literally meaning, 'I hold your feet') when greeting elders or superiors. The usual response from an elder will be 'marahaba'. In Zanzibar, the equivalent of 'shikamoo' is 'chei chei'. The traveler will get along very well when using these verbal expressions of respect. In addition, a title after the 'shikamoo' is also a useful indicator that you are not just a dumb tourist -- 'shikamoo bwana' for the gents, and, when addressing a female elder, 'shikamoo mama'.

Tanzanians will also comment if you are doing any work while they are not, with the phrase "pole na kazi". It literally means "I'm sorry you have to work". A simple "asante", or "thanks", will suffice in reply.

Many Tanzanian sellers are persistent and, ordinarily, a simple head shake, accompanied by "asante sana", should settle it. However, as a last resort, a firm "hapana", meaning "no", will do the trick. Tanzanians find the word "hapana" quite rude, so please don't use it casually -- only as a last resort. Whatever you plan to do, do not tell someone you will come back to buy from them later when you have no such intention; better to be honest and say 'no' than having to avoid someone for days. They somehow have a funny way of finding you when you promised to visit their stall or shop!

The most polite way to refuse something is to say "sihitaji" (pronounced see-hih-tah-jee)- "I don't need it".

Keeping in touch while traveling in Tanzania is rarely a problem. You can get decent mobile phone reception even in some national parks.

Telephone calls

The "Tanzania Telecommunications Company Ltd" (TTCL) is the state owned telecom, operating all pay phones and landlines in Tanzania. As it is the case with most developing countries, telephone fixed-lines are not affordable for many ordinary people. However, the mobile network has blossomed throughout Africa in the past five years, and this is equally true of Tanzania. With many used mobile phones for sale and the very low cost of getting a SIM card, Tsh 2000, this is the popular choice of most Tanzanians. For many, a mobile phone is the first large purchase when they get a job. The major mobile service providers operate all over the country, even in some of the most remote areas, although service interruptions are common.

If you find a taxi driver or tour guide that you like, ask for his/her mobile number. This is often the best way to reach them.

Using a mobile phoneIf you have an "unlocked" GSM 900/1800MHz frequency mobile phone (the same frequency as used in the rest of the world, apart from USA and Canada), you can purchase a local SIM card for 500 Tsh from a series of Tanzanian service providers. The most popular are Airtel, Vodacom, dan Tigo. Zantel is a new arrival on the mainland and, through the national roaming agreement with Vodacom, has the largest network coverage.

Air timeYou can recharge your "Prepaid" mobile phone account by using "scratch-cards", which are available everywhere. Just look for shops or even small tables set up along the road, with posters for the various mobile service providers. Those cards come in the following denominations: Tsh 500, 1000, 5000, 10 000, 20 000, and 50 000. If you plan on making frequent calls outside of Africa, you will need at least a 10000 Tsh-card.

Internet

With the advent of Internet-equipped cell phones, internet cafés are dying out throughout Tanzania. They used to be easy to find in major urban areas, like Dar es Salaam and Arusha, and may persist.

International telecommunications have low capacity, and can be unreliable

Some mobile providers have started offering wireless internet service. Zantel, Vodacom, Tigo, and Airtel are the main providers. Semua kawasan bandar dan banyak kawasan luar bandar yang mempunyai liputan telefon bimbit juga mempunyai liputan internet mudah alih. Liputan 3G tanpa wayar tersedia di banyak kawasan di Dar es Salaam, Arusha, banyak pusat yang lebih kecil, dan bandar Zanzibar.

Untuk menggunakan perkhidmatan ini, anda boleh menggunakan penyemak imbas mudah alih telefon anda. Untuk menggunakannya dengan komputer, anda mesti membeli Kad PCMA atau penerima mudah alih USB terlebih dahulu yang dipasang ke komputer anda. Ini akan memberi anda pulangan sekitar Tsh 200,000. Sekiranya anda mempunyai telefon CDMA yang tidak terkunci dengan kabel modem, ia juga akan berfungsi.

Waktu udara diperoleh menggunakan kad calar seperti telefon bimbit. Kadar sambungan adalah sekitar Tsh 60 untuk 1 Mb atau US $ 0,05 setiap MB. Oleh itu, muat turun dan muat naik 1 GB akan menjadikan anda AS $ 50 kembali. Tidak murah.

Namun untuk penggunaan telefon bimbit, kad SIM pay-as-you-go Tanzania adalah penyelesaian yang sangat baik. Panggilan ke Eropah lebih murah daripada cara lain, dan data cukup murah untuk digunakan untuk melayari e-mel dan web.

Wayarles (WIFI) juga disediakan oleh beberapa penyedia terutamanya Powernet (Bibi Titi Mohammed Road, Elia Complex) 0658769376, 0787769376, 0757769376, 0777769376, Akses Internet tanpa had di mana sahaja di Kawasan Bandar Dar-Es-Salam berharga Tsh 30,000 (US $ 20) .
