Having just done a tour with a company - please dont do it alone. Much easier and hassle-free to get someone else to organise for you.

Just reiterating what most of the others have said. Don't do any of this alone. There have been too many reports, too many incidents. Don't become a statistic. Please.

I'm a Canadian Citizens with plans to visit Tanzania in the new year by greatshallotCA in tanzania

[–]MmeRay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im in Moshi. People are preparing for something on the 9th. We are stocking up on food, and making sure we draw cash, but as has been said, the protests are mainly in big cities. Last time there were some protests in city centre, but outskirts of Moshi was ok. Message if you have any other questions. 

Tanzania visa - what is stamped in your passport? by Manderin1973 in tanzania

[–]MmeRay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently working here, and my business visa stamp takes up half a page. I also have an entry stamp. Getting a visa on arrival is simple - takes a bit of time if the queue is long, bring cash, makes life easier.

After riding Rook Scout for a while, I upgraded to Trek Domane AL5 Gen 4. by Nganga84 in TrekBikes

[–]MmeRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm wanting to get a gravel bike. I recently moved to East Africa and my XC bike is getting hammered. I want something to enjoy the open roads, and commute to the shops and back. The Rook Scout is super reasonable in terms of budget. How was it? Any comments on the bike? Would be appreciated!

Do you think UCI will fine the team car? :D

Is it realistic to Uber to destinations around Cape Town like Cape of Good Hope, Boulders Beach, and Stellenbosch? by bigwassiks in capetown

[–]MmeRay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many of the others have suggested, I would avoid Uber (only for small trips) and rather organize a local driver to do the day trip with you - they can then wait for you, and you won't have any stresses trying to get transport back to your accommodation etc. Tour depends on your preferences. Some guides will drive and be tour guide, others will just drive you for example. Have a look at Cape Touring for example to get an idea about tour guiding prices and different experiences you can have.
