Markets the Locals Actually Go To — Fruits + Life

good experience to walk in kariako market !

We had a fantastic walking tour of the vibrant kariakoo market with the lovely Yoshua. Yoshua was very friendly, professional and exceptionally knowledgeable. He was very passionate and showed us some amazing view points and introduced us to the bustling market, with information on its history and rich culture. We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with Yoshua and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Dar Es Salaam. We visited as a couple for the day from Zanzibar by ferry. Yoshua was very caring ,considerate and ensured we had a great experience. Yoshua kept us well informed with great communication before and after the walking tour. Fabulous guide and a wonderful person for us to have the privilege of meeting 😊Thank you Yoshua, from Mutahir & Ayesha.

Overall a good introduction to the market. Most likely I would not venture in there on my own. Yoshua was informative and has a passion for what he doing.

Kelvin was great. Great afternoon! We learned a lot about local life, tried fresh food on the market and learned some new Swahili words :) Would recommend 10/10.

If you ever want to experience how hectic a market is without getting lost and swept away, this is your opportunity. I will never forget this experience and Kelvin is a cool guide. He can gave us a couple of foods to sample on the route which was nice and took us through the many different places of the market we would have had no idea were there. Thanks Kelvin for this experience!
