Meeting point

St. Joseph Cathedral

On arrival

Our meeting point is in front of St. Joseph Cathedral Church on Sokoine Drive Street, Dar es Salaam. Look for the parking lot near the church entrance. I’ll be standing there wearing a black hat, ready to welcome you!

If you’re coming by taxi or ride-hailing service, tell the driver to drop you at St. Joseph Cathedral. From there, walk to the parking area where I’ll be waiting.

Please aim to arrive a few minutes early to ensure we start the tour on time. If you have trouble finding me, feel free to call or message me, and I’ll guide you.

Things to note

Please remember to dress appropriately for the tour. Tanzania’s culture is generally conservative, so we recommend wearing modest clothing that covers the shoulders and knees. Comfortable shoes are also a must, as we’ll be walking through the city and visiting various sites.

It’s also a good idea to bring a hat, sunscreen, and water to stay comfortable throughout the tour. If you have any questions about what to wear, don’t hesitate to reach out!
