AUTHENTIC EXPERIENCES

Authentic Local Primary School Visit

Education is technically a basic need for every child but unfortunately in developing countries, Tanzania being among, not every child gets this opportunity and even the ones who do, not all of them get to the best learning environments. Visit a local government school where you can get to interact with amazing and high-spirited local children. Tour around the school’s classrooms and other surroundings where you will get a clear picture of the lives of these children and their education system. If you would like to donate something to the school, we suggest it be in kind rather than cash. Things like Books, Stationaries, Uniforms, shoes, school bags, e.t.c . Check with us for more info 

Authentic TukTuk/Boda Boda ride

Public means of Transport here in Tanzania are excitingly unique and thrilling. Tuktuk (Bajaj) a popular Indian mode of transport has as well been adopted in the country where it can commute up to 4 pax. BodaBoda (Motorcyle) on the other hand is a more of a cheaper “private” transport where it can commute a maximum of only 2pax. Both these modes have played a big role in providing employment to Tanzanian youths and can be a very good way to view the city in a unique way. 

Authentic Mbulu Tribe visit

you will have the opportunity to witness their traditional customs and way of life. The Mbulu people are known for their close connection to nature and their reliance on agriculture for sustenance. As you explore their village, you will see the traditional mud huts that they call home, surrounded by lush gardens filled with crops such as maize, beans, and vegetables. 

Authentic Church Mass (Sunday Mornings)

during the early days of colonialism, missionaries in Tanganyika introduced Christianity, while Arabs in Zanzibar introduced Islam. Following Du Tanganyika and Zanzibar’s independence, people moved to and from both lands spreading both Christianity and Islam. Religion has remained an important element of many Tanzanians’ lives to this day. You may experience Christianity from an African perspective by attending a local Christian Church service where you will notice not several similarities but as well as huge differences with your usual Sunday services back home. The service is approximately 2 hours.
