Experience Swahili Culture Up Close
I’m Kelvin Angelo I’m Tanzanian through and through, with a misplaced affinity for cheesy romance movies (who doesn’t love Titanic!) and Country and Western music (something my friends are forever teasing me about). The first thing you’ll notice about me is that I love meeting new people and making them smile. The second is that I have a deep passion for and knowledge of my home country. You’ll have me on hand to help and advise you before, throughout, and even after your tour. After booking your place on my tour, you’ll receive some personal pre-travel advice on Tanzanian etiquette, and a little on the language – starting with; ‘how on earth do you pronounce Ngorongoro?’ A few things you should know about the people of Tanzania: we love to smile, laugh, sing, dance, and have fun (any excuse!) We wear our hearts on our sleeves and form friendships quickly and naturally. In fact, in my native language, Kiswahili, the word ‘mgeni’ meaning ‘foreigner’, is the same as the word for ‘guest’. Here you are not a tourist but a new companion, and that is the feeling I want you to experience as your personal host. Karibu nyumbani! Tanzania welcomes you home!

Description
We have a saying here: If you didn't see people at the airport or hotel, they're at the market. This is the biggest market you’ve never seen! If you’re not sure, come and see for yourself. I'll feed you with some easy Swahili words to talk with the locals and really feel the culture of Dar es Salaam. I’ll share my own stories to make our time special. This isn’t just a tour; it’s a chance to dive into everyday life here, full of laughter and moments you won't forget.
