Tanzania Travel Podcast with Zawadi Mushi

Tanzania's terrain runs from a tropical coast to a central plateau and temperate highlands in the north and south. Most of its people live in the northern half of the country and along the eastern seaboard. This podcast follows a long, grounded circuit through those landscapes. Through the episodes she moves from Dar es Salaam, the administrative capital, to Dodoma, the legislative capital, then to Mwanza on Lake Victoria and into the southern highlands. Along the way the show returns to the central plateau and the coast, following the uneven spread of people across the northern half and eastern seaboard. The series works through Tanzania's seasons, returning to places after the rains have remade the roads and the crops. Knowing Tanzania this way means noticing small shifts from one visit to the next, and letting the country reveal its rhythms through repeated journeys rather than a single itinerary. Zawadi Mushi lives in Tanzania and stays for two years, moving between cities, coastlines and smaller towns on a route that follows the seasons. Not a week-long visit — Zawadi is there in every kind of weather, working out where to eat on an ordinary Tuesday, which train to take, what a festival actually feels like from the pavement. A new episode arrives every day. Each one is short and specific: one neighbourhood, one journey, one meal, one museum worth the detour — with the practical detail that matters. What it costs. When it closes. Whether the queue is worth it. What to do when it rains. Every episode carries a full transcript and chapter markers. ☕ Enjoying the show?
