Favorite thing: Go to q-bar, it is awesome at friday and saturday nights. Also try to go to bagamoyo and sleep over in a cheap guest house there, 'bagamoyo beach resort' is good for the economy.

Fondest memory: All nights, it is warm, drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is very friendly, just enjoy all nights, cause they are the best times in Dar

Favorite thing: There are lot of places to visit from Gymkhana club if you wanna play Golf, National Museum,Karimjee hall, University of Dar es salaam, Kunduchi Beach, Oysterbay beach and a lot of pubs. It depends with what you are into.

Fondest memory: I miss clubbing especially Club Billicanas,Mambo Club and Slipway. Most of them are Open till down and you'll get your freak on with the latest in Hip hop, Reggae and Ndombolo.

Favorite thing: DAR ES SALAAM
Most tourists pass through Dar just to take the boat to Zanzibar. In fact, when you arrive by bus/train all the taxis ask you: Zanzibar? Ferry? We stayed less than a day. In the afternoon went to take a walk by Sokoine Drive, by the sea.
Some historyDar Es Salaam ('haven of peace') was only a small port until the German East Africa Company established a station there in 1887, though it was founded in 1862 by the sultan of Zanzibar on the site of the village of Mzizima. As starting point for the Railroad to Lake Victoria, it has been capital of German East Africa (1891-1916), of Tanganyika (1961-64), and later on of Tanzania.
National Museum: Here you can find the 1,750,000-year-old hominid skull discovered by Mary Leakey at Olduvai Gorge in 1959. At the end of Sokoine Ave.

Favorite thing: The exchange rate at the airport is very low. Better if you exchange money in banks or in your hotel or use your cash card.
