About the destination
Lake Victoria — Africa's largest, the world's second-largest freshwater lake — meets the warm hospitality of Bukoba town and the Haya people on its quiet western shore.
Why visit
A side of Tanzania almost no foreign visitor sees. Sunset boat trips with local fishermen, a fresh tilapia lunch by the water, and a soft cultural welcome that makes the long drive worth every kilometre.
