7. Must-Know Cultural Etiquette
When visiting Tanzania, understanding local customs and etiquette will help you connect with locals, show respect, and avoid misunderstandings.
-
Always greet people before starting a conversation. Handshakes are common, often with a gentle grip.
-
In cities and rural areas, dress conservatively. Women should avoid short skirts or revealing tops. On the coast & Zanzibar, dress even more modestly (knees and shoulders covered) due to Muslim influence.
-
Eat with your right hand, especially when dining in local homes or markets.
-
Tanzania is diverse (Christianity & Islam are major religions). During Ramadan in Zanzibar & coastal areas, avoid eating or drinking in public during fasting hours.
-
Swahili is the national language, but English is widely spoken in tourist areas. Learning a few Swahili phrases can go a long way! "Asante" – Thank you "Karibu" – Welcome "Pole pole" – Slowly, take it easy Tanzanians are polite and indirect, so avoid blunt speech or impatience.

Yellow Fever Vaccine – Required if coming from a country with yellow fever risk.

Malaria Prevention – Take antimalarial pills, use insect repellent, and sleep under a mosquito net.

Adventure activities coverage (hot air balloon safaris, hiking Kilimanjaro, etc.).
