I am Tanzanian who live in Arusha, for me i prefer Nairobi to Dar. It is close and easy for me to go to Nrb than Dar. Arusha to Dar 700 kms whle Nairobi is only 250 kms away. Wheather in Nairobi is very similar to that of Arusha cold Dar is too hot. All in all we are all East Africans same backgrounds, same culture lets love one another.
As Tanzanian i can agree to some point on what youre saying because i lived in Dar and i visited Nairobi regularly, these two cities and people can not be compared, Nairobi is more modern and advanced technologically and socially way far than Dar, Dar is full of coastal people who are much slower and Swahili Natives, Nairobians can only be compared by people from Northen Tanzania, Arusha and Kilimanjaro. Dar is beautiful city and is growing fast but Nairobi is on another level, and it is the people makes that difference.
@amarido12 Asante ndugu yangu...he should've compared Dar with Mombasa. Same speed 😂 Dar has a life, and its healthier;less stress. Whats the rush? The Kiswahili sanifu unifies the whole country. But the white man can't get those subtle points. ❤ from 🇰🇪
@@raandit471 Many of tourists attractions in Kenya are around or closer to Nairobi, so the city is full of tourists, thats why Kenyans automatically became friendly,polite and welcoming and English became priority, Unlike Dar tourism is not Major business, the City have more of local vibes with very minimal numbers of tourists, Tanzanian Goverment is now trying to invest more in modenizing the city to keep tourists longer, for a long time touriss visit Tanzania to go to National Parks and visit Zanzibar and leave immediately , very few hanging around , Nairobi discovered that is more profitable to invest in infrastructure and in businesses that will keep visitors longer by making them feels at home, many tourists feels more at home in Nairobi and they stay longer, and some wants to move parmanently.
Stop the cap, I know a Jealous KunyaMavi when I see one! These two GREAT cities cannot be compared, Dar is more like LA while NRB is like NY!! You try and work in over 30 degree weather with high humidity & hardly any wind, it sucks the life out of you! Y’all NAIROBI folk are used to that cool temperature like London, perfect for business! Now wait we got DOM coming up! It’s gonna rival NRB within the next 5-10 years, mark my words!!
I love both cities. Dar and Nairobi. Both are different and have their own vibes. Africa is home and we are building it together despite the corruption. The future is Africa guys! Let's not take everything serious about vloggers and make us hate each other. They can as well pack and leave if they keep this comparison bs. Let's rise and build our motherland. Viva Africa ✌️
thank you for your comment, but is it always necessary to get political correct? Modern society these days... one can't simply express their unfiltered thoughts about someone or something. Comparison is a phenomenon that is part of human culture, and we shouldn't run down people for making comparisons...
There is no Bad blood between Tanzanians and Kenyans.. I am a Tanzania Based in Dar es Salaam and i have been to Nairobi Several Times, Nairobi is more advanced compared to Dar. Best way to put it Make Money in Nairobi then Come and spend it in Dar. I speak highly of my brothers in Nairobi, once you Learn to Live with them you will know that they Joke a lot
@@thomassalvatory8303 I am a Tanzanian and i beg to differ.. We talk a lot of positives about you guys.. What i Learnt is that the media can be Misleading.
It's fine that your proud but Nairobi is built for the rich not for a common mwanchi,I've lived in both cities and I can tell dar is a much better place for majority of us East Africans, after all the mzungu guy is rich what did you expect😅 Kenya wasn't built for Kenyans this is the truth that most of us Kenyans don't admit and it keeps us into living a lie.
So in short Nairobi wants to be a European/American city while Dar wants to be an Asian city... I think its down to original influence, how the cities started
Honestly, this analysis tell more about you as a person than Dar and Nairobi as cities. First, you have to understand about the diversity and cultural dyanmics and differences between people of Nairobi and Dar. SWAHILI.. if you want to live or work in a country you have to atleast try to accomodate that country culture. You cant complain about people not speaking english as if is some accomplishment, when you come as a tourist you will get some guidance but if you want to work and live in Tanzania as a Brit, learn some Swahili and be respectful. MUSIC... Tanzania love more their own music "Bongo Fleva".. again dont expect Tanzanians to love your international music more than their own.. I know you try to be honest, but you come a bit less considerate, as if the only way to be developed in your lens is for Africans to be more like Westerners.. Respect African culture and our ways of life.
Scream it LOUDER to the kn*b ‘ead at the back row!! Then the pleb’s got the cheek to chide how Tanzanians choose to enjoy their hard earned money. If they wanna add sparkles and fireworks to their bottle of brandy or D’Ussé then who is it hurting? It’s the “I’m better than you because I’m Bri’ish mate” mentality that really grind my f***** gears! If you don’t like it here fella, jog on then!!!
Firstly, my analysis was predicated on an empirical examination of the tangible differences between Nairobi and Dar Es Salaam, rather than a mere reflection of personal predilections. The diversity and cultural dynamics of both cities were meticulously considered, and highlighting these differences does not inherently diminish respect for either locale. Regarding linguistic integration, while it is undoubtedly crucial to assimilate and respect the local language and culture, it is also a pragmatic observation that English serves as a lingua franca in many global business milieus. This acknowledgment does not seek to undermine the significance of Swahili but rather to elucidate the practical challenges faced by expatriates and tourists. On the subject of musical preferences, my observations were not predicated on an expectation that Tanzanians should favor international music over their indigenous genres. Instead, it was a recognition of the distinct cultural predilections that imbue each city with its unique atmosphere. The objective was to provide a nuanced and balanced perspective, not to insinuate that development is synonymous with adopting Western paradigms. It is essential to respect and honor African culture and ways of life, and this principle underpins my analytical endeavors. The analysis was intended to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the rich cultural tapestries inherent in both cities.
@@ArchitectRussell with that egoistic approach u r simply an idiot! Coming to a culture that has accepted u n trying to impose ur values! What r u doing in Dar why not going back to the UK of Brexit?
I love being East African. I'm Kenyan and we have a bad reputation for arrogance - but Tanzanians and Ugandans are our brothers. Where grown up together. And we love you. Karibu.
Good day sir, I am Kenyan, I have recently been to Dar es salaam. Dar is more like Mombasa, the culture, religion, speed, language, beaches and all. Nairobi life, everything is fast, speed is everything. Life is more affordable in Dar than in Nairobi. Tanzanians don't trust Kenyans at once but once they do, they have proved to be very wonderful people. Kenyans are generally very aggressive just like Nigerians. I like Dar very much. I enjoyed the video, mostly true except for the salaries part...
@@ArchitectRussellThe salary part (and some others) was so weird. Simply ignorant. You need to learn about the ways of a particular people and find out why they do what they do before you comment. Ask questions, don't draw uninformed conclusions. These countries/cities are not trying to be England. So they don't need to meet your standards. They are what/who they are. Up to you to experience them and not to want to experience yourself in them. That's what makes this world diverse and beautiful. For me not a very good video because one moment you completely trash one of them then you come back and say they are slightly different. One of the most confused comparison videos.
Kenyans have been saying this for a while. But coming from a foreigner... I don't know what Tanzanians are going to say. The few already in the comments sections are already extremely triggered 14 hours after the video goes up.
@@ArchitectRussell How about learning Swahili staying in a city u r earning ur Living? U r justfucken hypocrite n jingoistic with those sentiments! Move to Nairobi!
When comes to language you shouldn't complain. You're In a city of Swahili speaker, why should they speak English? why can't you bother to learn proper Swahili. That's like asking native London residents to speak arabic or Swahili when English is their native language. I appreciate Nairobi speaks English but you can't complain about Dar people not speaking English when you're fully aware Swahili is their language. I don't hear this narrative with Chinese, or Japanese but only when comes to African languages it seems no respect. If you want to live in a city of people who speak English then do that but don't go to non-english speaking cities and ask for privilege of them to speak to you in English. You should appreciate the fact that they are even trying too. Cut the entitlement.
@@ArchitectRussell It is not a city of Swahili speakers. Mombasa they priorities Swahili far much more than Nairobi does. Yes they do speak Swahili but English is their default language. Meanwhile Dar is a Swahili city to the core. If you've lived long enough in Tanzania you should understand that simple difference. You can try to be funny and all sort of laughing emojis but you need to show respect to our language. I'm not trying to be mean but it's disgraceful to try speak foreign language to a country you fully know Swahili is their default language and then complain why they don't speak good English.
@@mtatapharaoh5174 No one is saying don't learn English, what I'm saying no one should complain about people not speaking English in predominant non English speaking city. beside if you think you can only survive with English in China alone, go ahead and try it alone and see.
The way tanzanians are bitter in the comment section is very alarming.As a Kenyan i will never ever visit tz bcoz once they know you're a Kenyan,the hate you gonna receive is unimaginable.
As a Kenyan who works and lives in Nairobi plus regularly travels for work to Dar, you have given an accurate unbiased opinion. One thing though as you say Nairobi really needs to improve on street lighting, large sections of the city where the streetlights though there don't work even on major highways, an area where the county government has really failed.
i agree with Russell...Nairobi is just not ahead but years ahead of Dar es salam...Nairobi is even more advanced than most cities in west africa like Lagos and Accra of which i have been to all 4
They will not agree even when every thing is as open as book! It is funny. Now Tanzanians even think they are more developed than Kenya because of SGR and BRT. 😂
You are on point. I am a Pan Africanist. My heroes are Julius Nyerere, Nkrumah, and too many more to list, but I was treated so bad in the days of Magufuli, that I have never beeb back, or had a desire to. Tanzania has better roads, but Kenya Gen Z Kids taught the entire world we don't put up with shhh. My business is gemstones and uplifting local communities with my skills, but with the disrespect I was shown, I have never been back. The politicians haven't uplifted the people, just like in Kenya or any African nation
@@lewiskariukimunene infact we are very much united, more than any other place in Africa. From the comments you should realize how much we interact, we know each other better,and people cross borders freely and friendly than any countries in Africa. Intermarriages are very common and we share the same language. Just go and ask what "watani wa jadi" means in Swahili than you will know what goes on.
I happened to be in Dar some time back and man, those people are slow AF. Businesses from local shops to restaurants and cafés open late in the morning (9am onwards). Dar ukirauka don't expect to see any open shops by 5/6am. One weekend we went for a nigh out with my hosts, by 5 I was super hungry and thought I'd find something to eat. Niliambiwa ningojee hadi 9 ndio atleast nione kiosk imefunguliwa. The customs officers too are super slow when it comes to clearing people unlike in the kenyan side. I used to think we Kenyan Coastal people were slow until I interacted with Tanzania. It's like uzembe wao ni ule wa Pwani ya Kenya mara hamsini.
Kwahiyo ulitaka tukimbizane ili iweje njoo uone mijengo tunayoishi watz huyo mpuuzi anataka wenzie wasije Tz anaongea hivyo wakati yeye yupo Tz zaidi ya miaka kumi mjinga huyu.
You're right, 100%. I've never been to Mombasa, but it's an ugly truth.. coastal people are very sluggish and probably lazy and traditional. I am Tanzanian but I never spent more than a day in Dar. Worthless city.
I think you should cinclude, That nairobi is of western culture, and Dar is of swahili culture. Dar dont embrace mùch of western, but of her own swahili culture.
I have been to both cities, and they are both amazing. Nairobi is modernly advanced, while Dar is a more culturally relaxed city. They are both awesome african cities.
It would have made sense to compare Dar with Mombasa! Trust you me, Mombasa is undergoing a major transformation both in terms of highways and highrise buildings and is going to catch up to and overtake Dar very soon ✌️ Nairobi is waaay ahead of Dar to be honest!
Dar a mega city of six million people compared to Mombasa a city of less than a mil. You are not serious. Infact the central business district of Dar is larger than that of Nairobi.
This video would have been better on mute, you speak with a lot of hubris, how did you know the price of the whiskey was half the salaries of the guys in the club. Did they tell you how much they earn? Kenyan here but i didnt like the tone used in the video. Do better on that
Nothing about Mzungu these fights are on every Nairobi videos Tanzanians see. It's better to hear from third party it doesn't matter red or white binadamu ni binadamu.

We speak English the same way you speak Swahili. You came to Swahili speaking country and you don't understand why they don't understand English perfectly?
Even your president makes an effort to speak English. It bridges communication. Its not hard. Its mostly illiteracy as most schools here teach English.
My thoughts as well. He would not go to France or Portugal and state the same. That bit was unnecessary but I think he already knew that. Based on how described Tanzanians making those facial expressions he must really dislike living in Tanzania
As a Tanzanian who has lived for 27 years in Dar es Salaam and visited Nairobi regularly. Totally agree with this video. My fellow Tanzanians we have a long way to go.
No offence to our Tanzanian brothers but You can only compare Dar with Mombasa They share a lot in common (old towns, both not capitals, both are coastal, both speak swahili, temperatures are anout the same and so on)
I think both cities are beautiful in their own ways, but Nairobi has an edge over Dar es Salaam. Tanzanians might complain about this 😂😂. Nevertheless, I found your video very condescending, reflecting a typical British mentality and loaded with generalizations. While many Kenyans and Tanzanians may not have the same financial means as most Europeans or Britons, believe me, some have as much money as any European or even more. Your argument should have a more nuanced and respectful discussions about different cultures and cities. I think it’s crucial for content creators to avoid generalizations and approach such topics with a balanced and respectful perspective.
It’s commonly referred to as the “Little Islanders” Mentality! Majority seem to have it, it displays a disappointing Insularity and a closed mindedness. Stuck in the bygone glory years of “Rule, Britannia!” & doing everything they can to clutch onto the remnants of a crumbled empire. Bless their heart!
Having gotten that off my chest, friendly rivalry must continue 😂 Dar has an edge over NAIROBI as much as we’ve got the BEST of Both worlds! Can’t really top that can you?
@@section8ight174 good, we fight a 'common enemy,' then we go back to our 'friendly fire.' 😂 The idea that Dar es Salaam has an edge over Nairobi is a fallacy. While Dar es Salaam is an important and rapidly growing city, Nairobi’s established position as an economic, political, and cultural center in East Africa generally gives it an advantage in many key areas. That is a fact🙏🏿
@@rang3688 LOL you do make me chuckle, I give you that. However, Cultural centre is more Arusha, Political centre is Addis Ababa & Economic/financial is being robbed from you by Addis too as we speak! Looks like you are gonna have to try again :)

Sie wa Tz ni wapole shida ni nyie. You guys are always trying to provoke us. When we retaliate, you start to wander where the hatred are coming from. We know Kenya is ahead of us in terms of dvt, but why are you so insecure?!
Can't wait to visit Dar Es Salaam. I schooled in Nairobi and I've been working here. If the climate of Dar is similar to Mombasa, I'm sure it's not a city I would love to live in. I prefer visiting than living in Mombasa as the weather isn't as favourable. Use of AC sucks 😞. Houses in Nairobi rarely have ACs. I found Kampala to be more integrated - poor and rich live together freely. There are parts of Nairobi one may never visit in their lifetime. If you're poor, there are the rich parts of Nairobi you may never know exist and the opposite is true. Poor and rich people may not meet at all. 😢😞 I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing, but it explains glaring disparities.
I think I prefer the climate in Dar. Not a fan of the cold mornings and evenings. People actually told me not to visit Mombasa because it’s similar to Dar. I think k u get that rich poor thing in Dar also.
@@tanzanite9944 if that makes you feel better, so be it. You're lucky to live in a country with no slums. You know what? We've visited your country and we didn't see slums or poor people. Stop sending your disabled relatives to beg in Nairobi's streets though.
Why Do you think to Use English language is Better than Swahili? You want to tell people your language is better and that everyone should know and use it so that he/she can be rated Better? Who told you speaking English makes the city better? How if Chinese person goes to Nairobi and can’t speak English? Is the Chinese going to see Nairobi better because of English? How if you compare Nairobi with Beijing? Which one with better architecture City? For you will be Nairobi because people speak bett English. 😊
Did I say English is better. Maybe that came from your mind. Actually I’ve done a video about Beijing. Much prefer it. China happens to be my favourite country.
This guy is also on instagram he comes to our country he think he is better than anyone else here and he think he set à tone for everything, I fucking hope to come across him someday, fuck

The speed of the people depends on the weather. Daresalaam speed is like that of Mombasa. Both places are hot. Nairobi's weather is cool so people move faster.
Maybe you prefer Nairobi because you are a Mzungu, but if you were an African or you had stayed long enough to adopt African culture you will definitely fall in love with Dar. It is the most populous city in East Africa and the slums are not as bad as those in Nairobi. Dar Music is the best. Nairobi people walk very fast because they have a lot of tensions and grievances. Dar people are happy and very relaxed. Infact this is a happy nation. We move forward happily and together. Dar football stadiums are always full as ordinary people have surplus to spend on entertainment.
the problem is we tanzanians we dont talk too much like people from Kenya and one more thing is we dont take much time and energy to brand ourselves we normally say as long as you perform you will be seen quite different from people from Kenya as you have to brand your self so much to be seen
Dar is more comparable with Mombasa being at the sea level & near the equator hence very hot and humid. Kenyan coastal people are also very chilled and move at a snail's pace compared to Nairobi folk or watu wa bara. Nairobi would best be compared to Addis maybe imho. As a "Nairobian", I see the problems Dar has that you have highlighted as opportunities🤑. Nairobi is currently very competitive & expensive for avg kenyan business person.
Arusha nayo it's not situated well to outdo Dar despite elevation. Btw Lagos, Dakar and Abidjan have the same all year round heat and humidity of Dar. Imo I think the heat and humidity works against worker's productivity. Every time I go to Kenyan coast (Mombasa, Kilifi, Malindi), I can't imagine living a long time in that heat. Although we can learn a lot from a city like Singapore which also has terrible heat & humidity. The advantage of kina Dar es Salaam and other coastal cities is logistics. Btw TZ has bigger untapped potential than Kenya. It has more resources, more land, more arable land and higher population. I think the ONLY advantage that Kenya has right now is human capital. But I would argue that human capital outweighs everything else if your competition is far behind.
@@Edyi_44 Not in the near-term. Assuming no major shock to both economies (e.g. Covid) Tz's economy will grow at a slightly higher growth rate than Ke in the next decade according to W.B. and Afdb projections. Still the difference is small enough that Kenya will be ahead maybe until the 2040s. Tz's economy isn't as formalized & their infrastructure spending is lower. But like I said with the right direction, the country has potential to be bigger than Ke. It has way more resources, way more land, way more people. Also it's extremely cheaper to produce anything in Tz than Ke. Cheap agricultural products will price out Kenyan farmers (given EAC is a free market) and cheaper safaris will attract more tourists to Tz. Unfortunately, the current policy makers in Ke aren't acknowledging this so that they can shift the kenyan economy to manufacturing.
You have to be the most negative human being ever lived. I am from United States and I appreciate the 2 cities. I understand they have their own culture and they can’t be like us. Why would they speak English and for what? They don’t have to do they?
@@ArchitectRussell so you have stayed in Tanzania for 10 years but why for such a long time if you didn’t like it or criticize it that much? Why didn’t you move back to where you came from immediately if your home was better than Tanzania?? Please make it make sense

Having beaches is not being vibrant buddy 😂 beaches with terrible infrastructure is a menace , tourist will come for the beaches but experience slow service delivery, sub standard hotels and never ending blackouts , Nairobi is vibrant , tell me where in dar that you'll see buildings as tall as 47 floors share neighborhood with lions and zebras , upperhill and Nairobi national park literally share fences, that's vibrance, modernity and mother nature co existing.
@@Edyi_44 LOL, I don’t think sharing neighbourhoods with animals could be classed as vibrant, we got animals roaming about Dar, no issues! Having a VIBRANT beach culture is the one, can’t really compare it to the landlocked Nairobi and the animals don’t quite cut it I’m afraid . How many tourists are coming to Nairobi specifically to see the wildlife 😂 cut it out dude you already know we got the BEST of both worlds? When’s the last time you saw anyone rushing about by the beach? Sort it out dude!
@section8ight174 You are a fool , I'm talking about Wild animals , does Dar have a national park ? Should I educate you that the meaning of vibrance in the English dictionary is full of energy and life , The TH-camr has said it himself Dar is a boring city with slow people and basically nothing to do other than going to the beach , that's the exact opposite of the word vibrance. Vibrance is having a city so green that it's nick named the green city in the sun , yet so Morden that it's crowned the most developed city in East Africa. Having a public urban park like Uhuru park in the middle of Nairobi CBD screams vibrance, a city full of life , in both Morden and natural aspects. I saw a Tanzanian TH-camr called Bertin being shocked by Nairobi's malls ( esp Two rivers mall) and the streets of CBD it even got cringe at times lol. I'm not even surprised to see the number of tourists coming to Nairobi is twice that of Dar 2.4 Million and 1.8 Million respectively. shouldn't that independently answer the question of which city is more vibrant
In Summary: If you like more of a city-vibe with more international population, then Nairobi, but if you like more of a slower-paced-relaxed-life with a beach, then Dar-Es Salaam! It really depends on who you are, and what you like!
We like kiswahili because dar Salam is Tanzania and Tanzania national🇹🇿 language is kiswahili so we are proud of this language no English if you need come in dar Salam Tanzania is better you speak kiswahili because people of Tanzania we speak kiswahili this is not Europe,🇪🇺 Uk this is kiswahili country you are welcome Again dar Salam

Dar es Salaam is often considered more beautiful than Nairobi due to its coastal location, stunning beaches, and vibrant cultural scene. The city's location on the Indian Ocean offers picturesque waterfront views, a variety of water activities, and a more relaxed atmosphere. Dar is super beautiful that the entire Kenya KUNYALAND
Nairobi is a business city , Dar is a coastal city of course the beaches would add to the beauty but it's funny reports still indicate Nairobi receives more visitors per year than Dar es salaam.
As a white Brit I've never had an issue in South Africa, Zambia or Tanzania. But the lack of card payments is a pain, (as a Westerner) and why are chips (fries) served with everything? South Africa is much better for card payments. I love that the bars are open so late in Dar though ;-)
Maybe because people are not in a rush to join the Babylon system? So you spend an extra 15 seconds to whip your wallet out and do what you’ve done since childhood, God forbid coz we are now super busy and inconvenienced 🤣 clown behaviour!

I tend to say Dar es Salaam, is much more similar to what Mombasa 'was supposed to be'. Nairobi is significantly more developed and fast moving than anything in TZ.. Kenya is more of a commerce based economy while TZ seems to be holiday 'tourist' type of experience.
I think it makes more sense to compare capital cities. That's the basic starting point esp coz a foreigner will most likely land in the capital city of a country before exploring other cities. Like it would be wierd comparing Arusha with Nairobi simply because they are inland cities.

Swahili was chosen as a Tanzanian national language after our independence, and we are Proud to have a language that is widely spoken in many other African countries, and internationally recognized. However, now with a lot of international schools in the country, our new generation is growing up to speak English more. My little nieces/nephews speak American English, they barely know Swahili.

Aside from cultural differences Nairobi is the hub for this region of Africa and is this far more international, more industrious and had a head start of decades. Kenyans are also educated in English while Tanzanian schools are very poor quality. I live in northern Tanzania a mix of the two.
It's unfair to compare Dar to Nairobi . Dar got no chance at all. Nairobi has international city vibes! I prefer to compare Kenya's second city of Mombasa to Dar. The two have a lot in common.
Why when you showed Nairobi its clear picture but when you showed Dar es salaam its not clear picture! Dar es salaam is hot like Dubai doesn't mean it's a bad place and you want Tanzania run when they walk as Nairobi for what! If you don't like Dar es salaam or Tanzania its cool just stay there you're we don't need you here either! because many people love Dar es salaam and by the way why you lived at Tanzania for many years if you didn't love the place! No wonder you are jealous of the beauty of Dar es salaam and Tanzania as well. I am proud to be a Tanzanian 🇹🇿 ❤

You compared the two cities so well. Their urban planning especially for pedestrian is really crappy. The biggest difference is perharps the people and customer service, and you articulated that so well.
I wonder if the two cities, perhaps the two countries, were to be compared based on the affordability, creativity and hospitality behaviors of the local. Also, Tz is still lost in a sense of embracing capitalism or socialism. What can be achieved by relying on local availabilities. Nairobi has more people that have traveled beyond the Kenyan borders and has more foreigners, so we should expect to have a lot of imports where in Tzn the socialism attitude has forced people to produce a number of things at home. But then what are the local ones producing which can serve as ambassadorial beacons. Of course I am Tzn as you can tell from my articles but at Simamiatv we try to neutral as much as possible.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. Comparing Nairobi and Dar es Salaam based on affordability, creativity, and hospitality is indeed interesting. Both cities have unique strengths shaped by their distinct histories and cultural contexts. Tanzania’s approach to balancing capitalism and socialism creates a different economic dynamic compared to Kenya. Dar es Salaam's emphasis on local production highlights a resilience and resourcefulness, fostering creativity in how locals meet their needs. Meanwhile, Nairobi’s openness to global influences, fueled by more travel and foreign presence, brings in diverse ideas and products. Local production in Tanzania serves as a testament to innovation and self-sufficiency. Products like Tanzanian coffee, crafts, and textiles are excellent examples of what locals produce that carry cultural significance and economic value. Both cities have their own ways of contributing to their national and regional identities, making each unique and valuable in its own right. Your efforts to maintain neutrality are commendable, and such discussions only enrich our understanding of these dynamic cities.
People, Mr compare and contrast is here complaining about Swahili in Tanzania, yet he has been in Tz for 10 yrs, he further complains about people being slow, isnt he himself slow?, logic behind: like things attract, people were just being generous to cope up with him! Go to a place called Kibera in Nairobi, then...You just havent got enough of Nai yet. Bottom line, complaining doesnt solve anything, just Cope up!

As Tanzanian i can agree to some point on what youre saying because i lived in Dar and i visited Nairobi regularly, these two cities and people can not be compared, Nairobi is more modern and advanced technologically and socially way far than Dar, Dar is full of coastal people who are much slower and Swahili Natives, Nairobians can only be compared by people from Northen Tanzania, Arusha and Kilimanjaro. Dar is beautiful city and is growing fast but Nairobi is on another level, and it is the people makes that difference.

@@raandit471 Many of tourists attractions in Kenya are around or closer to Nairobi, so the city is full of tourists, thats why Kenyans automatically became friendly,polite and welcoming and English became priority, Unlike Dar tourism is not Major business, the City have more of local vibes with very minimal numbers of tourists, Tanzanian Goverment is now trying to invest more in modenizing the city to keep tourists longer, for a long time touriss visit Tanzania to go to National Parks and visit Zanzibar and leave immediately , very few hanging around , Nairobi discovered that is more profitable to invest in infrastructure and in businesses that will keep visitors longer by making them feels at home, many tourists feels more at home in Nairobi and they stay longer, and some wants to move parmanently.

I love both cities. Dar and Nairobi. Both are different and have their own vibes. Africa is home and we are building it together despite the corruption. The future is Africa guys! Let's not take everything serious about vloggers and make us hate each other. They can as well pack and leave if they keep this comparison bs. Let's rise and build our motherland. Viva Africa ✌️
In total agreement with this sentiment
thank you for your comment, but is it always necessary to get political correct? Modern society these days... one can't simply express their unfiltered thoughts about someone or something. Comparison is a phenomenon that is part of human culture, and we shouldn't run down people for making comparisons...
Do Kenyans and Tanzanians hate each other? No no, they don't! Only a little sibling rivalry. How are you my great Tanzanian brothers and sisters?
Huyu mzungu kuma la mamayake kama katuma tutakuja kumtomba cku nyingne akija dar . Kuma la mamayake kibuyu mamayeee
we are not siblings Kenyans like Tanzanians bt you wont find Tanzanians talk about Kenyans
Tanzanians keep comparing themselves with us
There is no Bad blood between Tanzanians and Kenyans.. I am a Tanzania Based in Dar es Salaam and i have been to Nairobi Several Times, Nairobi is more advanced compared to Dar.

It's fine that your proud but Nairobi is built for the rich not for a common mwanchi,I've lived in both cities and I can tell dar is a much better place for majority of us East Africans, after all the mzungu guy is rich what did you expect😅
Kenya wasn't built for Kenyans this is the truth that most of us Kenyans don't admit and it keeps us into living a lie.
So in short Nairobi wants to be a European/American city while Dar wants to be an Asian city... I think its down to original influence, how the cities started
Not really... One is a coast city and the other is inland. They can't be the same. Dar is more like Mombasa in terms of energy.
Nope Nairobi wants to be Kanairo
Daar feels more European while Nairobi feels more American/Asian
Nairobi wants to be like Kanairo
@@dennisgichohi5392 they don't get the vibes until they get to Kanairo. We are Kenyans that's just simple as it is.
Honestly, this analysis tell more about you as a person than Dar and Nairobi as cities.
First, you have to understand about the diversity and cultural dyanmics and differences between people of Nairobi and Dar.
SWAHILI.. if you want to live or work in a country you have to atleast try to accomodate that country culture. You cant complain about people not speaking english as if is some accomplishment, when you come as a tourist you will get some guidance but if you want to work and live in Tanzania as a Brit, learn some Swahili and be respectful.
MUSIC... Tanzania love more their own music "Bongo Fleva".. again dont expect Tanzanians to love your international music more than their own..
I know you try to be honest, but you come a bit less considerate, as if the only way to be developed in your lens is for Africans to be more like Westerners..
Respect African culture and our ways of life.
Scream it LOUDER to the kn*b ‘ead at the back row!! Then the pleb’s got the cheek to chide how Tanzanians choose to enjoy their hard earned money. If they wanna add sparkles and fireworks to their bottle of brandy or D’Ussé then who is it hurting? It’s the “I’m better than you because I’m Bri’ish mate” mentality that really grind my f***** gears! If you don’t like it here fella, jog on then!!!

Firstly, my analysis was predicated on an empirical examination of the tangible differences between Nairobi and Dar Es Salaam, rather than a mere reflection of personal predilections. The diversity and cultural dynamics of both cities were meticulously considered, and highlighting these differences does not inherently diminish respect for either locale.
Regarding linguistic integration, while it is undoubtedly crucial to assimilate and respect the local language and culture, it is also a pragmatic observation that English serves as a lingua franca in many global business milieus. This acknowledgment does not seek to undermine the significance of Swahili but rather to elucidate the practical challenges faced by expatriates and tourists.
On the subject of musical preferences, my observations were not predicated on an expectation that Tanzanians should favor international music over their indigenous genres. Instead, it was a recognition of the distinct cultural predilections that imbue each city with its unique atmosphere.
The objective was to provide a nuanced and balanced perspective, not to insinuate that development is synonymous with adopting Western paradigms. It is essential to respect and honor African culture and ways of life, and this principle underpins my analytical endeavors. The analysis was intended to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of the rich cultural tapestries inherent in both cities.
@@ArchitectRussell with that egoistic approach u r simply an idiot! Coming to a culture that has accepted u n trying to impose ur values! What r u doing in Dar why not going back to the UK of Brexit?
I love being East African. I'm Kenyan and we have a bad reputation for arrogance - but Tanzanians and Ugandans are our brothers. Where grown up together. And we love you. Karibu.
Good day sir, I am Kenyan, I have recently been to Dar es salaam. Dar is more like Mombasa, the culture, religion, speed, language, beaches and all. Nairobi life, everything is fast, speed is everything. Life is more affordable in Dar than in Nairobi. Tanzanians don't trust Kenyans at once but once they do, they have proved to be very wonderful people. Kenyans are generally very aggressive just like Nigerians. I like Dar very much. I enjoyed the video, mostly true except for the salaries part...
Thanks man. Yeah I plan on visiting Mombassa soon. Should be fun!
@@ArchitectRussellThe salary part (and some others) was so weird. Simply ignorant. You need to learn about the ways of a particular people and find out why they do what they do before you comment. Ask questions, don't draw uninformed conclusions. These countries/cities are not trying to be England. So they don't need to meet your standards. They are what/who they are. Up to you to experience them and not to want to experience yourself in them. That's what makes this world diverse and beautiful. For me not a very good video because one moment you completely trash one of them then you come back and say they are slightly different. One of the most confused comparison videos.
Kenyans are completely different to Nigerians. Stop twisting things.
Kenyans have been saying this for a while. But coming from a foreigner... I don't know what Tanzanians are going to say. The few already in the comments sections are already extremely triggered 14 hours after the video goes up.

When comes to language you shouldn't complain. You're In a city of Swahili speaker, why should they speak English? why can't you bother to learn proper Swahili. That's like asking native London residents to speak arabic or Swahili when English is their native language. I appreciate Nairobi speaks English but you can't complain about Dar people not speaking English when you're fully aware Swahili is their language. I don't hear this narrative with Chinese, or Japanese but only when comes to African languages it seems no respect. If you want to live in a city of people who speak English then do that but don't go to non-english speaking cities and ask for privilege of them to speak to you in English. You should appreciate the fact that they are even trying too. Cut the entitlement.
Isn’t Nairobi a city of Swahili speakers too? 😂
@@ArchitectRussell Nairobi is not a city of Swahili speaker only Dar it is
@@ArchitectRussell It is not a city of Swahili speakers. Mombasa they priorities Swahili far much more than Nairobi does. Yes they do speak Swahili but English is their default language. Meanwhile Dar is a Swahili city to the core. If you've lived long enough in Tanzania you should understand that simple difference. You can try to be funny and all sort of laughing emojis but you need to show respect to our language. I'm not trying to be mean but it's disgraceful to try speak foreign language to a country you fully know Swahili is their default language and then complain why they don't speak good English.

I'm kenyan & i love Tanzanians. Very cool guys
Tanzanians in Arusha aren't bitter at all
As a Kenyan who works and lives in Nairobi plus regularly travels for work to Dar, you have given an accurate unbiased opinion. One thing though as you say Nairobi really needs to improve on street lighting, large sections of the city where the streetlights though there don't work even on major highways, an area where the county government has really failed.
i agree with Russell...Nairobi is just not ahead but years ahead of Dar es salam...Nairobi is even more advanced than most cities in west africa like Lagos and Accra of which i have been to all 4
You arent lying. I was in Accra just 2 weeks ago and I was shocked at what I saw. I expected much more development than what I encountered
They will not agree even when every thing is as open as book! It is funny. Now Tanzanians even think they are more developed than Kenya because of SGR and BRT. 😂
I don't understand why you travel if you primarily seek aspects of home away from home? Though it is true that Nairobi is better than Dar 😂

I happened to be in Dar some time back and man, those people are slow AF. Businesses from local shops to restaurants and cafés open late in the morning (9am onwards). Dar ukirauka don't expect to see any open shops by 5/6am.
One weekend we went for a nigh out with my hosts, by 5 I was super hungry and thought I'd find something to eat. Niliambiwa ningojee hadi 9 ndio atleast nione kiosk imefunguliwa.

We are Tanzanian we speak swahili. Don`t force us to speak english. Respect our language. Slow is our culture. Dar is hot do you want us to boil?
I think you should cinclude, That nairobi is of western culture, and Dar is of swahili culture. Dar dont embrace mùch of western, but of her own swahili culture.
As of Kenya dos not have Swahili culture. Coastal Kenya will give that. 😂😂
I have been to both cities, and they are both amazing. Nairobi is modernly advanced, while Dar is a more culturally relaxed city. They are both awesome african cities.
It would have made sense to compare Dar with Mombasa! Trust you me, Mombasa is undergoing a major transformation both in terms of highways and highrise buildings and is going to catch up to and overtake Dar very soon ✌️
Nairobi is waaay ahead of Dar to be honest!
And people told me not to go to Mombasa because it’s similar to Dar!
Mombasa overtaking Dar?😂😂😂...may be after 100 years.. which still is unlikely!
Nah it’s not even close fam . Mombasa is really really not even close

Can't wait to visit Dar Es Salaam. I schooled in Nairobi and I've been working here. If the climate of Dar is similar to Mombasa, I'm sure it's not a city I would love to live in. I prefer visiting than living in Mombasa as the weather isn't as favourable. Use of AC sucks 😞. Houses in Nairobi rarely have ACs. I found Kampala to be more integrated - poor and rich live together freely. There are parts of Nairobi one may never visit in their lifetime. If you're poor, there are the rich parts of Nairobi you may never know exist and the opposite is true. Poor and rich people may not meet at all. 😢😞 I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing, but it explains glaring disparities.

Dar people are happy and very relaxed. Infact this is a happy nation. We move forward happily and together. Dar football stadiums are always full as ordinary people have surplus to spend on entertainment.
We walk fast coz we ain't lazy.
Walk cautiously guy. Mwendapole hajikwai
Why do u think I prefer Nairobi?
The way you talk shows it all. You like concrete jungles maybe@@ArchitectRussell
Nairobi is A1 from language, structural designs, vibe n fashion almost Next to US
the problem is we tanzanians we dont talk too much like people from Kenya and one more thing is we dont take much time and energy to brand ourselves we normally say as long as you perform you will be seen quite different from people from Kenya as you have to brand your self so much to be seen
And now you are talking here to much
@@Malathnyawade 😂🤣🤣
Dar is more comparable with Mombasa being at the sea level & near the equator hence very hot and humid. Kenyan coastal people are also very chilled and move at a snail's pace compared to Nairobi folk or watu wa bara. Nairobi would best be compared to Addis maybe imho.
As a "Nairobian", I see the problems Dar has that you have highlighted as opportunities🤑. Nairobi is currently very competitive & expensive for avg kenyan business person.
Compare Nai with Arusha! Same style of Lunacy 😂
Arusha nayo it's not situated well to outdo Dar despite elevation.
Btw Lagos, Dakar and Abidjan have the same all year round heat and humidity of Dar.
Imo I think the heat and humidity works against worker's productivity. Every time I go to Kenyan coast (Mombasa, Kilifi, Malindi), I can't imagine living a long time in that heat. Although we can learn a lot from a city like Singapore which also has terrible heat & humidity.
The advantage of kina Dar es Salaam and other coastal cities is logistics. Btw TZ has bigger untapped potential than Kenya. It has more resources, more land, more arable land and higher population. I think the ONLY advantage that Kenya has right now is human capital. But I would argue that human capital outweighs everything else if your competition is far behind.
In fact once the infrastructure in TZ catches up to Kenya, we will fall behind in tourism.
@@singlepointoffailure9799 How will Tanzania's infrastructure catch up with Kenya's yet road connectivity in Ke is three times that of tz.
@@Edyi_44 Not in the near-term. Assuming no major shock to both economies (e.g. Covid) Tz's economy will grow at a slightly higher growth rate than Ke in the next decade according to W.B. and Afdb projections. Still the difference is small enough that Kenya will be ahead maybe until the 2040s. Tz's economy isn't as formalized & their infrastructure spending is lower. But like I said with the right direction, the country has potential to be bigger than Ke. It has way more resources, way more land, way more people. Also it's extremely cheaper to produce anything in Tz than Ke. Cheap agricultural products will price out Kenyan farmers (given EAC is a free market) and cheaper safaris will attract more tourists to Tz. Unfortunately, the current policy makers in Ke aren't acknowledging this so that they can shift the kenyan economy to manufacturing.
You have to be the most negative human being ever lived. I am from United States and I appreciate the 2 cities. I understand they have their own culture and they can’t be like us. Why would they speak English and for what? They don’t have to do they?
Did I say they have to speak English? I’m comparing the difference.
@@ArchitectRussell so you have stayed in Tanzania for 10 years but why for such a long time if you didn’t like it or criticize it that much? Why didn’t you move back to where you came from immediately if your home was better than Tanzania?? Please make it make sense
@@ArchitectRussellyou said Tanzania speaks bad English or no English you should have learned Swahili before decided to visit the country no one have carter for you to speak English.
@@Cowboys1998If i am not wrong i’ve seen another video of him being negative about Tanzania. talking about old building. We are happy with our country. His country is not all that glitter he should talk about the bad part of it too.
Yea im Kenyan but this video was so bias...
I’d love to visit both cities.
Both are a wonderful experience
@@ArchitectRusselldidn’t sound like it they way you were constantly slagging both cities off! If you expect European standards then flights leave everyday! These countries are about 60 years old, let’s have a look at London foget 60 years but push it to 200 or 500 years after inception, St Giles Rookery, The Devils Acre, Frying Pan Alley etc!

Industries, infrastructures, economy, English, vyote tumezidiwa na Wakenya. Mie nimesoma chuo kikuu Linguistics and guess what! Lecturers from Kenya were way way better than those from Tz. We really need to work on ourselves b4 competing with them. I know sometimes they are so cocky and provoke us, but we should check ourselves b4 retaliating.
Come and see for yourself, they are all full of strugglers trying hard to make ends meet. But they are just happy.

One day Dar es salaam will have those structures of Nairobi,but until the end of the world Nairobi will remain with no beach🤣
Nairobi don't need Beach. We go to Mombasa, malindi and Lamu for holidays.
also mombasa and some coastal cities in kenya are coming up.
Dar is vibrant, whereas Nai is vigorous, if you didnt get enough of Dar vibrance, then Nai violence should get the best of you any time soon. And we all know arches are more beautiful than boxes. Peculiar taste!
😂 facts!! Sit tight & enjoy the ride ..
Having beaches is not being vibrant buddy 😂 beaches with terrible infrastructure is a menace , tourist will come for the beaches but experience slow service delivery, sub standard hotels and never ending blackouts , Nairobi is vibrant , tell me where in dar that you'll see buildings as tall as 47 floors share neighborhood with lions and zebras , upperhill and Nairobi national park literally share fences, that's vibrance, modernity and mother nature co existing.
@@Edyi_44 LOL, I don’t think sharing neighbourhoods with animals could be classed as vibrant, we got animals roaming about Dar, no issues! Having a VIBRANT beach culture is the one, can’t really compare it to the landlocked Nairobi and the animals don’t quite cut it I’m afraid . How many tourists are coming to Nairobi specifically to see the wildlife 😂 cut it out dude you already know we got the BEST of both worlds? When’s the last time you saw anyone rushing about by the beach? Sort it out dude!
@@section8ight174 when we say animals we don't mean cats, dogs, donkeys, snails ...okay???
@section8ight174 You are a fool , I'm talking about Wild animals , does Dar have a national park ? Should I educate you that the meaning of vibrance in the English dictionary is full of energy and life , The TH-camr has said it himself Dar is a boring city with slow people and basically nothing to do other than going to the beach , that's the exact opposite of the word vibrance. Vibrance is having a city so green that it's nick named the green city in the sun , yet so Morden that it's crowned the most developed city in East Africa. Having a public urban park like Uhuru park in the middle of Nairobi CBD screams vibrance, a city full of life , in both Morden and natural aspects. I saw a Tanzanian TH-camr called Bertin being shocked by Nairobi's malls ( esp Two rivers mall) and the streets of CBD it even got cringe at times lol. I'm not even surprised to see the number of tourists coming to Nairobi is twice that of Dar 2.4 Million and 1.8 Million respectively. shouldn't that independently answer the question of which city is more vibrant
Came to Nairobi 20 years ago, ended up making it my home.
I live in Dar es Salaam, I totally agree with you
As a tanzanian I agree, if there's something we lack is sense of urgency
Nairobi is way ahead for sure. Dar is to be compared to a village town in Kenya
@@tomnethan757 utoto mamako. Dar is a village mr crackhead

Compare dar es salaam with coastal regions like mombasa and so on but not Nairobi is too deferent bro
Its not different, I have been to the slums, and city is full of strugglers, we are both in the same boat brother.
Am a kenyan living in mbeya Tanzania but to me though Nairobi is abit advanced but dar is soo beautiful than nairobi
Having a coastline just makes it better in its own .
There is Mombasa with a coast line and it is also developed enough to get a good standard of life.
Soon I'll visit dar
Watching from Nairobi
Enjoy !
Karibu Dar
@@easternyerembe7271 thank you
Utapenda, nilikua huko dar kuko poa...
Dar is beautiful, with great chilled people
In Summary: If you like more of a city-vibe with more international population, then Nairobi, but if you like more of a slower-paced-relaxed-life with a beach, then Dar-Es Salaam! It really depends on who you are, and what you like!
Kenyahas beaches too!! Mombasa is the option for those who want the beach and Mombasa is developed though not to Nairobi standards!!
informative comparison, thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
We like kiswahili because dar Salam is Tanzania and Tanzania national🇹🇿 language is kiswahili so we are proud of this language no English if you need come in dar Salam Tanzania is better you speak kiswahili because people of Tanzania we speak kiswahili this is not Europe,🇪🇺 Uk this is kiswahili country you are welcome Again dar Salam
So are you saying the city with proper public transport is unplanned compared to matatu city? Are you kidding me?
He is telling you facts class clown😂😂😂😂
Did I say that?
Matatu are better
@@AustineKennedy-k4u😂😂😂😂
Am a kenyan and i was shocked when in dar and i wanted to search a place and there is no google street view i hope they have it now because every city should have it, in kenya even most village towns have google street view
No actually I checked something yesterday didn’t work. They are weird with photographs here.
@ArchitectRussell so weird
True
Rainy seasons is not for tourists its for locals in nairobi to make babies.
Each City has it's own uniqueness compared to the other
The skyline in Nairobi is breathtaking.
The pedestrisn pavements however is an abomination to life and a harakiri to your toenail😭
Lot of missing pavements in Dar - usually have to walk on road
@@ArchitectRussell So all 100 Kilometres of BRT System that have sidewalks you dont see them or what are sidewalks to you. Look at all Morogoro road,Msimbazi, Kawawa road, Kilwa road, Sam nujoma road, Mwenge morocco road, Coco beach road all of them have wide sidewalks. And other still being constructed with the BRT system and you compare it with Nairobi that only the CBD has sidewalks while other posh areas like kilimani, westlands and upperhill have no sidewalks at all. We are still developing and we are not like you british people that you had to kill,steal colonize and slave other people to develop your country that by the way nowdays its decaying
Thank you for visiting Nairobi,Karibu Tena 😊Kenya Hakuna Matata 🇰🇪
Asante
Ndo nimetoka ku search Nairobi vs dodoma nikaambiwa dodoma is only comparable with kisii
😂😂 Comparing it with Nairobi is an insult. Yes, Kisii would do. 😅
Why are Tanzanians so triggered? There's nothing wrong with being slow and outdated. It is your culture, be proud of it!
Dar es Salaam is often considered more beautiful than Nairobi due to its coastal location, stunning beaches, and vibrant cultural scene. The city's location on the Indian Ocean offers picturesque waterfront views, a variety of water activities, and a more relaxed atmosphere.
Dar is super beautiful that the entire Kenya KUNYALAND
Trueeee....
@@gibbs1320 yes
Nairobi is a business city , Dar is a coastal city of course the beaches would add to the beauty but it's funny reports still indicate Nairobi receives more visitors per year than Dar es salaam.
@@Edyi_44 Chokoraa also can be considered as visitors.
Cause those slums is something else in naislum full of chokoraaa
Filthy beaches where all city sewer lines are directed to. Try swimming there and you will be in a deep sh***😂. Hope you get it 😊
This is literally like comparing Punta Cana vs Santo Domingo. Two different cities, different vibes. Coastal towns are SUPPOSED to be laid back
Nairobi now is on fire
Yes for better. WE ARE RESTRUCTURING.
I'm Kenyan, been to both cities they have a different vibe, its like comparing New York to LA both very different pace and vibe.
As a white Brit I've never had an issue in South Africa, Zambia or Tanzania. But the lack of card payments is a pain, (as a Westerner) and why are chips (fries) served with everything? South Africa is much better for card payments. I love that the bars are open so late in Dar though ;-)
Maybe because people are not in a rush to join the Babylon system? So you spend an extra 15 seconds to whip your wallet out and do what you’ve done since childhood, God forbid coz we are now super busy and inconvenienced 🤣 clown behaviour!
The point is if you add these 15 seconds from every transaction over a year you lose so much time. I don’t want everything to be slow as I want to do more of the things I love.
@@thebrokearchitect Then you end up at the pub wasting hours talking about things that don’t matter like footie lol what’s 15 seconds again?
I think you’re missing the point. Add up all the 15 seconds and you may get a whole day at the end of the year and you can read a great book 😊
@@thebrokearchitect Buddy, you are the one missing the point, we do waste plenty of time on a daily basis! Watching TV is a waste of time but we spend hours BINGE watching absolute CR*P everyday yet you are worried about 15 secs? 😂 I see what you mean but in the grand scheme of things, it’s minuscule!
I tend to say Dar es Salaam, is much more similar to what Mombasa 'was supposed to be'. Nairobi is significantly more developed and fast moving than anything in TZ.. Kenya is more of a commerce based economy while TZ seems to be holiday 'tourist' type of experience.
A better comparison would be Daresalam vs Mombasa although Daresalam is more developed but the vibe, the people are almost similar
I will go to Mombasa be time for sure! Is it nice there?
@@ArchitectRussell It's nice, first stop should be Diani beach.
I think it makes more sense to compare capital cities. That's the basic starting point esp coz a foreigner will most likely land in the capital city of a country before exploring other cities. Like it would be wierd comparing Arusha with Nairobi simply because they are inland cities.
@@naizcomics I see your point and it's valid although Dar is no longer the capital.
@@naizcomicsBut Dar is not a capital city. Dodoma is TZs capital and it would actually be a joke to compare Dodoma to Nairobi..
Dar is more like Mombasa, people culture & architecture due to arab and Indian influence.
Thank you for sharing your experience, I find that interesting and helpful as a Nigerian
That’s great. Hope to come to Nigeria soon.
@@arc.muhammaddunoma7734 As Nigerian in Dar you will have a very hard time connecting with locals as they have a very negative views in Nigerians, some of your people always comes up with some dumb shit and ruin for others
It's a good video. Don't be discouraged by the comments h it's TH-cam.
Great video.
I appreciate it!
Next time do comparison between Lusaka and Harare
Ok I will 👍🏽
Swahili was chosen as a Tanzanian national language after our independence, and we are Proud to have a language that is widely spoken in many other African countries, and internationally recognized. However, now with a lot of international schools in the country, our new generation is growing up to speak English more. My little nieces/nephews speak American English, they barely know Swahili. TZ may develop faster than you expect!
Kiswahili os Kenya's national language too!! English is Kenya's business language. Never undertsiod why Tanzanians like to dosconnect Kenya with Kiswahili. I bet you are clueless why TZ and Kenya picked Kiswahili as national languages. 😅
Trying to introduce Neo colonialism in Dar? 😂😂😂I hope you wont suceed.Everyone knows kenya is a puppet country to the west unlike other East African countries , Tanzania has a stand compared to countries like Russia. Tanzania is more of an anti-western country hence most people tend to avoid any western sociall way of life from language to music and governance
That’s a very good point 🤔
@@ArchitectRussell are you mocking me ?👀
@@saitotigeorge654 Tanzania is an Arab, Indian colony

How does being modernised become puppet for the west ? You are trying to paint brush backwardness and underdevelopment to being "anti west". Pathetic !
Aside from cultural differences Nairobi is the hub for this region of Africa and is this far more international, more industrious and had a head start of decades. Kenyans are also educated in English while Tanzanian schools are very poor quality. I live in northern Tanzania a mix of the two.
Yes and all those points don’t make it better. Something most people don’t understand from the video.
Good to hear in Tanzania clubs they play more local music, very good to the generation to keep their roots
It's unfair to compare Dar to Nairobi . Dar got no chance at all. Nairobi has international city vibes! I prefer to compare Kenya's second city of Mombasa to Dar. The two have a lot in common.
I will compare when I go
Nairobi is a vibe asap!
Why when you showed Nairobi its clear picture but when you showed Dar es salaam its not clear picture! Dar es salaam is hot like Dubai doesn't mean it's a bad place and you want Tanzania run when they walk as Nairobi for what! If you don't like Dar es salaam or Tanzania its cool just stay there you're we don't need you here either! because many people love Dar es salaam and by the way why you lived at Tanzania for many years if you didn't love the place! No wonder you are jealous of the beauty of Dar es salaam and Tanzania as well. I am proud to be a Tanzanian 🇹🇿 ❤

Matatu are amazing! Club on wheels all day and All night.
I wonder if the two cities, perhaps the two countries, were to be compared based on the affordability, creativity and hospitality behaviors of the local. Also, Tz is still lost in a sense of embracing capitalism or socialism. What can be achieved by relying on local availabilities. Nairobi has more people that have traveled beyond the Kenyan borders and has more foreigners, so we should expect to have a lot of imports where in Tzn the socialism attitude has forced people to produce a number of things at home. But then what are the local ones producing which can serve as ambassadorial beacons. Of course I am Tzn as you can tell from my articles but at Simamiatv we try to neutral as much as possible.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. Comparing Nairobi and Dar es Salaam based on affordability, creativity, and hospitality is indeed interesting. Both cities have unique strengths shaped by their distinct histories and cultural contexts.
Tanzania’s approach to balancing capitalism and socialism creates a different economic dynamic compared to Kenya. Dar es Salaam's emphasis on local production highlights a resilience and resourcefulness, fostering creativity in how locals meet their needs. Meanwhile, Nairobi’s openness to global influences, fueled by more travel and foreign presence, brings in diverse ideas and products.
Local production in Tanzania serves as a testament to innovation and self-sufficiency. Products like Tanzanian coffee, crafts, and textiles are excellent examples of what locals produce that carry cultural significance and economic value. Both cities have their own ways of contributing to their national and regional identities, making each unique and valuable in its own right.
Your efforts to maintain neutrality are commendable, and such discussions only enrich our understanding of these dynamic cities.
People, Mr compare and contrast is here complaining about Swahili in Tanzania, yet he has been in Tz for 10 yrs, he further complains about people being slow, isnt he himself slow?, logic behind: like things attract, people were just being generous to cope up with him!
