A popular tourist attraction, the Makumbusho Village Museum
displays traditional Tanzanian traditional homes, representing 18
ethnic tribes. Visitors are taken on a tour through the homes,
which include furnished huts, meeting places and cattle pens, and
can view artists and craftsmen weaving, carving and painting.
Traditional dances are held every Thursday and Sunday.
Information & Facts
Language
Swahili and English are the official languages. Several
indigenous languages are also spoken.
Money
The official unit of currency is the Tanzanian shilling (TZS),
divided into 100 cents. The tourism industry prices everything in
US Dollars and they are the preferred unit of currency. Major
currencies can be exchanged in the larger towns. Foreign exchange
bureaux in the main towns usually offer a better rate on travellers
cheques than do the banks. ATMs are available in major cities only.
Major lodges, some hotels and travel agents in urban areas accept
credit cards, but these should not be relied on and can incur a 10%
surcharge.
