Cultural Tourism – Visit the People

Tanzania cultural programme was launched to give local communities the opportunity to improve
their economic livelihood by participating in tourism activities.
Tanzania is endowed with rich cultural heritage of over 120 ethnic tribes and Cultural tourism
programme enables tourists to gain a unique insight into those people’s way of life.
Leave your safari vehicle behind and walk through the lush tropical slopes of mountains, hills, valleys
and plantations. Meet the ethnic groups(tribes) like Maasai, Datoga, Hadzabe, Iraq, chagga…and
learn their almost forgotten traditions and a way of life that is so closely linked to nature and
wildlife.
Listen to drumbeats and interpret music and dances inherited from ancient ancestors. Learn
historical Swahili Coast. Explore the savannahs on camelback or donkeys. Boat down a river, or row
on one of the many lakes. Paddle between mangroves or sail with fishermen to pristine sandy
islands. Climb holy mountains and benefit from the diagnostic methods of a traditional healers.
Taste the local cuisine and sample the local brew.
And then, in the evening, listen to ancient legendary tales around an open fire. An experience you
will never forget.
