The 4 Best Nightlife in Tanzania

1.A Nightlife Adventure with a Local Guide: Dar es salaam city

★★★★★★★★★★3.7 · 7 reviews · 3 hours · from $40Our pick

Spend three hours exploring Dar es Salaam after dark with local guide Derick Lawrence. Visit bars and lounges, sample street food such as mishkaki, enjoy rooftop city views, hear African music, and finish at a nightclub. Transportation is included, but drinks and some venue fees cost extra.

“I was supposed to be picked up in a car but the car was unavailable. The guide picked me up on a bike instead which was fine. But the guide only brought me to one bar, no sampling of street food, did not go to the rooftop bar with city view, did not go to a nightclub and did not go to a local cinematic hall. The tour guide was also having few drinks which was not good as he was riding the bike. This tour is simply not worth it. Just take an Uber to Coco Beach and save money.”
