This place is magical Cosmas and his family are wonderfully wonderful and kind-hearted people . A beautiful friendship was born that is why I decided to return a second face after the Safari , Cosmas is a Wikipedia know it all , he is from a tribe in that area and it was interesting to be with him around because he showed me so many things . This accommodation is home and family , if you are looking for that I recommend you go to them .

I stay at Safari when I am in Dar. Last week I was there and realized I had forgotten my phone when I got to the airport. I called, they found it, and came out to give it to me when we rushed back. I appreciated this very much.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
