Highlights

This tour is unique as you will get to learn about the tinga tinga paintings and how they got to be, they are original from Tanzania, and only found around East Africa. Furthermore you will get to learn how to paint them from the painters themseleves.The painters lovingly make their work, and it can be challenging to make ends meet in such a labour-intensive and competitive field. These tinga tinga paintings are one of a kind. Paintings are handmade. Like handmade clothes or furniture, paintings show the hand of their maker so you can add a touch of personality to the home. Mass produced items cannot compete with that.

About Dar es Salaam

Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's largest city and main port, a hot Swahili-coast city of markets, museums, beaches and ferries to Zanzibar.

Dar es Salaam, whose name comes from the Arabic for 'haven of peace', grew around a harbour on the Indian Ocean in the nineteenth century and is the commercial centre of Tanzania. Its waterfront has the Kivukoni fish market, where boats unload at dawn, and the colonial-era buildings of the centre include St Joseph's Cathedral, a Gothic church with a tall spire, and the Azania Front Lutheran Church.
