Mwanza look book

Hey you! Thank you for reading. For all my camera lovers,this post for you. And although I do not promise you picture perfect shots; I am certainly assuring you that you will fall in love with the beauty of Mwanza before you are done reading this post! Haha that was a hard sentence to write!

First thing I must mention is that I never imagined how exhausting fifteen hours on the road would be😓. We arrived and all we wanted to do was have a good meal, shower, and rest. Other than relaxing we took time to plan our next two and a half days since the corona situation had altered our original plan.

This trip was not intense and fast. It was a mixture of exploring and relaxing🛀. Below is a highlight of the places we explored over the remaining days. I’ll also leave the important details that will come in handy as you plan your visit. Enjoy💃

Sukuma Bujore Museum

For 400/= (4 USD) you will have your entrance and tour guide fee sorted. The tour guide, Richard, is very knowledgeable on the beautiful culture of the Sukuma people. The fact that he has worked in the museum for 38 years explains why. It took us around 2 hours to explore every single part of the museum plus another 30 minutes to take pictures🙊.

 Saa Nane Island Park

We often hear of beautiful places and then we get to experience those places. When I tell you that Saa Nane is breathtaking I do no justice describing the place 🙌. The park is located on an island! It is a ‘man-made’ park since animals were transported to the island. Some of the animals on the island include zebras, waterbucks, a lion, antelopes, monkeys, and some huge monitor lizards. The cost for park fee, a tour guide, and a boat ride- to and from the island- is 1,450/= (15 USD). Here are some pictures to try describing the place but stay tuned for the next blog because we will get into details about this gem.

Bismark Rock

Because Mwanza is the city of rocks, our trip could not come to an end before visiting one of the many rock parks. We were unlucky that the rain poured as soon as we got to the park so all we did was sit and enjoy the view of the lake. The entrance fee is 50/= and the cost to swim is 150/= (2 USD). The place is perfect if you are looking to have a chilled time as you enjoy the beautiful sunset and views😍😍

Tunza Beach

If you know me, you know that water and sand are my love languages🙊. For that, I was super excited to take a dip in a freshwater lake during this trip. When the initial itinerary plan changed, I had to quickly find a beach to explore while in Mwanza. I stumbled on Tunza Beach from a story and that’s how we discovered this beautiful resort😍. It cost us 100/= (1 USD) for the entrance fee.

This marks the end of the Mwanza look book😊. I hope you will find it useful when deciding on the places to visit during your trip😉. Also, from the details I’ve just shared, what is your favorite spot? Comment down and let me know; it might be my fav spot too💃.
