Dar es Salaam Motels - Reviews and Rates

Well I have returned for Zanzibar and am staying the night at Karen's house before I continue on to Zambia. Victoria Falls here I come. Zanzibar was good but a little bit frustrating. Let me start with the frustrating. There is a whole poplulation of men from 20 to 30 who's job is to make money off of tourists. I swear half of them don't do anyt...

So I'm here in Dar es Salaam! I arrived here at 10ish last night. The 7 hour flight to Amsterdam was miserable. I really do not recommend Continental Airlines, especially the economy class. Anyway, the food was decent, but I could not sleep at all. The Amsterdam airport is really nice and the people there were very friendly. We stopped at a Coff...

We arrived in Dar Es Salaam early in the morning, made our way through customs, got our Visas sorted out at the airport, and met a cool US girl Kelly who was here to travel for 4 months. The three of us decided to catch a local bus to town (about 12km) instead of forking over the $10 for a cab. This was a great experience to start, as we boarded...

ZAMBIA Lusaka to Dar es Salaam 1st - 3rd December 2006 Friday - Sunday I woke up at 05:45, just too late to get the 1st bus that to Kapiri Mposhi. So I finished typing up my blog for two hours, packed up my stuff (it only took 10 minutes and I was very proud of myself), boiled water to fill my bottles with, and got psyched up for the journey ahe...

Lugesime Iraani kokku. Saime 29 täispäeva, mille jooksul läbisime maad mööda ööbimiskohast ööbimiskohta ca 2200 km, nägime ära 10 linna ja kulutasime kahe peale 2211 USD (ilma kaardiga makstud miniatuurideta). Mulle meeldisid kõige rohkem Khorramabad, Esfahan ja Kashan. Kõige suurema kuluga päev oli 5. november - 151 USD (Esfahan ja nänniostmine...

Hey Yall' This will be just a quick update. Tomorrow I leave for Arusha to organise a safari. Arusha is about a 10 hours on a bus so I'll be sure and listen to a bunch of music on the way. Thank God for the disc man. I was supposed to go on safari with a few friends and the driver here but Kari, the same dolt who runs the organization, screwed e...

25th - After seeing in the day with Tracey and doing a birthday shot with her - Monkey's lunch not bad - started the morning with a good breakfast and then went to the Maasai Cultural Museum for a tour. This was very interesting as they had the stages of building a traditional house and the room for wife and kid and the room for the husband to b...

woke early for 9 hour bus ride to Dar es Salaam on the "Luxury" bus line. ha! What a wacko trip. Got to the slipway fairly late (9?) and it was lovely, but didn't really get to explore so much. Great room, great night's sleep!

How the heck did it jump from jun 4th to jun 7th? Well I dunno, but it felt like some long crazy dream and suddenly its Wednesday. We¡¦re up at 7am, to meet the chemistry department people at 8:30. We learned a little about the areas of research, heard a presentation about herbal medicine. Everyone seemed really nice and friendly. Then, we decid...
