4 Days Dar es Salaam Beach

Dar es Salaam - the peaceful haven of Tanzania was unceremoniously inaugurated around early 1860’s by Sultan Majid bin Said of Zanzibar who initiated the development of a harbor town close to the fishing settlement of Mzizima. Its expansion was accelerated twenty years later when the colonial German East Africa Company set up a base here and began using it as their managerial and business headquarters. After the First World War, the British seized control of the metropolis and soon two distinct areas were set up a little apart from the town’s heart, one Colonial Europeans and the other Native Africans. Distinct boroughs also had a section of immigrant Hindustani traders living in it. And as a resultant of trade relations and opportunities Dar es Salaam had with Arabia and Hindustan, the township organically fused a unique ethnic background with elements of African, Arabic, Colonial and Indian cultures.
