Shopping in Dar Es Salaam

Dar es Salaam's markets are filled with local crafts and craftsmen at work. Craft stands and markets can be spotted all around Samora Avenue in the city centre. Ilala Market on Uhuru Street and the Kariakoo Market spread across Msimbazi and Mkunguni Streets are interesting places to browse and shop.

Taking a local guide is a good idea. Take care to leave all valuables behind and keep an eye out for pickpockets.

This Dar es Salaam Shopping Guide gives an indication of the best places to go shopping whilst in the city. Our Tanzania Shopping Guide has further information about the best things to purchase whilst in the country.
