I was alone in Tanzania and I felt safe. I started in Arusha for a safari. Then I took a bus to Moshi, then a bus to Dar es Salaam, and finally a ferry to Zanzibar. Generally, I felt safe, except Dar Es Salaam is not a place where wandering alone at night is a good idea. Many local men approached me in the streets. Usually, they just wanted to chat, and some proposed to me right away, but I learned to ignore them.
Posted: December 3, 2023I spent 9 days on a safari in Tanzania, touring 3 national parks: Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti. I saw lions, monkeys, hippos, zebras, giraffes, ostriches, elephants, hyenas, buffalos, antelopes, wildebeests, and even a single rhino. Then I went to relax on the beach and explore the island of Zanzibar for 5 days. I went with two friends and I felt safe.
Posted: December 3, 2022I recently visited Dar Es Salaam and Zanzibar in Tanzania and I can't recommend this country enough! I have never felt safer as a woman walking alone in the streets - my Uber drivers always made sure I knew where I was going, and one even offered to help me buy a SIM card at a local shopping center to make sure I wouldn't get ripped off. We booked a safari through Serenity, but spent the rest of the time on our own. The staff, no matter where you stay, are always eager to help and make you feel like family - I spent many hours talking to some of the guards, trying to learn Swahili, and after that we became best friends!

I traveled solo in Tanzania, which was harder to organize compared to solo travels in Europe. I was constantly harassed and did not feel comfortable. The persistence of the locals quickly became tiring. Prices for a white person were higher and I had to haggle to avoid overpaying. On the positive side, it is easy to communicate in English.
Posted: October 20, 2023Recently, I spent several months in Tanzania and visited many places. This country is relatively easy to travel around and diverse, leaning more towards nature. The people are kind and helpful. They often approach you, but I never felt threatened. You should be careful, just like everywhere else, avoid walking at night etc.
