Dar is brimming with charm and boasts a vibrant atmosphere. It showcases a blend of African, Muslim, and South Asian influences and features a scenic harbor, stunning beaches, bustling markets, and historic buildings. It's definitely worth extending your stay beyond just the layover time. Exploring the city center on foot is an excellent way to immerse yourself in the local culture, and the Kariakoo market offers an intriguing experience for the more adventurous.
