Slow Travel Guide: Walking Tour of Arusha City Tanzania | Scenic PLOG Adventure
Tanzania 🇹🇿 Arusha Citywalk Guide: Adventure at the Foot of Mount Meru 🧭
🚕 Getting Around Like a Local:
Skip the hassle—download InDrive, Arusha’s go-to ride-hailing app! Pro tip: Have cash ready (Tanzanian shillings preferred) to match the fare shown. No online payments here! And yes, drivers expect tips—skip it and brace for that awkward one-star rating. (Seriously though, who likes being asked for tips before the ride even starts?)
📍 Masai Market: Where Bargaining is an Extreme Sport 🏆
Warning: You WILL leave with souvenirs! This vibrant maze of four bustling streets overflows with handcrafted treasures and vivid paintings. Every stall competes with similar wares, so just dive in anywhere.
💰 Insider Haggling Secrets:
That table of goodies? We slashed the price to 1/10 of the starting quote!
Learn from our Kenya mishap—we paid 4x more for ebony chess sets before discovering this market. Now I’m paying it forward to save you from souvenir scams!
🔥 Bargain Like a Boss:
Channel your inner negotiator! Chinese women rule these markets for a reason.
The winning strategy? Load up items, set your max price, and WALK AWAY. They’ll chase you down—every single time!
📍 Fifi’s Cafe: A Hidden Gem ☕️🍽
Just 5 minutes from the market madness, this cozy spot serves:
• Rich Arabica coffee that’ll wake your soul
• Flaky Lake Victoria fish bursting with flavor
• A jaw-dropping T-bone steak
All for about 100 RMB—unbeatable!
📍 Culture Heritage: More Than Just Shopping
Browse authentic Masai crafts then explore their mini-museum—a perfect culture break.
📍 TWIGA Local Craft Beer: Cheers with Locals ⚽️🍺
Caught a football match at this mall bar? Electric atmosphere! Even our driver was glued to the game—that’s how you know it’s the real deal.
