Overview of the tour in Dar es Salaam

Embark on a captivating Bagamoyo walking tour and immerse yourself in the town's rich history and vibrant culture. Once a key trading port and the final stop for slave caravans from the interior of East Africa, Bagamoyo is now a serene coastal town filled with historical and cultural treasures.

Your journey begins with a visit to the centuries-old Kaole Ruins, remnants of a 13th-century Swahili settlement, including ancient mosques and tombs. Stroll through the old town, where colonial-era German buildings and the Catholic Mission tell stories of missionary work and the abolition of the slave trade. Stop by the Bagamoyo Museum to explore exhibits detailing the town’s history and significance.

Enjoy the lively local markets, showcasing art, crafts, and the everyday lives of Bagamoyo’s residents. Take in the serene beaches and the dhow-dotted coastline that once bustled with trade. This walking tour is perfect for those seeking a deeper connection to Tanzania's past and present.

This activity includes:

  • Kaole Ruins
  • Catholic Historic Museum
