A true safari isn’t just about what you see – it’s also about what you taste.
We believe food is part of the adventure. That’s why we offer the chance to enjoy a delicious local Tanzanian lunch as part of your journey. Whether it’s during a cultural tour, a village visit, or a relaxing midday break on your itinerary, this is your chance to experience real flavors made with heart.
- What to Expect from a Local Lunch Experience:
Traditional Dishes Made Fresh
Sit down to a hearty meal prepared with locally sourced ingredients. Typical dishes may include:
- Ugali – a maize flour staple, soft and filling, eaten with your hands.
- Nyama Choma – grilled meat (usually beef or goat), served with a smoky flavor and lots of love.
- Rice & Beans, Plantains, or Chapati – a mix of sides that are flavorful and satisfying.
Vegetarian options are always available, made with seasonal veggies and spices.
- Eat Like a Local
You’ll enjoy your meal in a warm, welcoming setting – sometimes in a local home or outdoor garden, with hosts who are happy to share their stories, cooking methods, and traditions.
- Cultural Connection
This is more than just a meal. It’s a chance to sit, relax, and connect with Tanzanian culture. Ask questions, learn about the food’s origins, and maybe even try your hand at cooking something small!
- Finish With Local Fruits or Coffee
Depending on the area, you might finish with sweet tropical fruits like mango, banana, or pineapple, or a freshly brewed cup of local Tanzanian coffee.
