I’m Kevin 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!

Tour description

Forget trendy lattes, third-wave V60s, and micro macchiatos – trace your coffee back to its East African roots. This ‘coffee crawl’ will have you buzzing as we explore the variety of beans Tanzania has to offer. You might not see many bags of Tanzania coffee on Western shelves back home. We’ll look at why that is, as well as dive into the coffee culture on the streets, exploring what role coffee has in social gatherings. For all you true coffee connoisseurs there is an option to extend our tour to a coffee farm and roastery.
