HALEEM SPICE

Kariakoo market. Kariakoo is derived from British word "Carrier Corps".. It's a big market where you can get everything and anything for a cheap and affordable prices. It's a market where it's very crowded. There's a good security but you've to be careful with your own stuffs, alot of pick pockets. I love this place, I have been shopping here for years.

It is the biggest, most busiest and crowded market in Dar Es Salaam. It is also considered as a historic site since it has been there for ages. It offers everything you need and i mean anything.

Good place to go for quick shopping with many options tho too many people.

The market is located in the heart of Daresalaam and you will find cheap quality goods here ranging from Fashion, Hardware, Auto parts and IT Products. You will need to have an Interpreter with you if you don't speak Swahili because 98% of people use Swahili. Most seller's may usually inflate prices if they notice you don't speak Swahili. Generally people here are friendly and very few records of theft.

Kariakoo is one of the oldest market places in the country, the word Kariakoo comes from the mispronounced words 'CARRY AND GO'. It's a market place that has everything you may need for home use and more. From food, furniture, electronics, agro products, textile, motorcycles and spare parts to financial services. I remember coming here since when I was the youngest I could remember. Traders from the rest of the cities come here to buy their whole sale products. Kariakoo can also be a disturbing place if you do not like crowds, walking around can be a very disappointing activity and parking is always a headache here unless it's a Sunday, maybe.

Very big market on the streets, maybe 1 by 1 km area, but picture can not show how it really looks, you can find what you need or no

Busy, bustling, complete with pretty much anything you can think of.

Great local market with all kind of shops.
Wholesale and retail shops available.
Good to visit with public transport.
Don't carry so much with you just you small hand bag to accommodate your phone and money.
All operations done in local currency.
Bureau de change available but it's good to exchange your money in advance to avoid disturbance.
Due to lots of movement be carefully with things like mobile phones.

Really funny and crazy market,like in all place you have to have careful with your wallet but for the rest is safe. No body attack you to stole you, well they try to trick you with the prices of the things because is really cheap all except for tourists people don't let them to do that if they refuse to sell something don't care I'm sure you that you will find the same for cheap!! Good luck in Kariakoo Market. That is a experience you have to live if you come to Dar es Salaam.

The Most popular Market in Dar es Salaam, the most popular city in Tanzania! Kariakoo has all kind of product you are looking for! The prices of commodities are fair.

commodities are available for both wholesale and retail. From young to the old, all will be found in its streets strolling around.

Its fun to take a walk around it. the sun will hit you hard though. Just get a bottle of water. Its the market which has the pure native culture. If you are interested to know how do the locals do their shopping, do go to the shopping malls, they go there to take photos only! Ha ha ha ha! just kidding!

Yet this market serves not only Tanzania, it links DRC, Burundi, Rwanda and Zambia!

Despite of the congestion this place has just everything to buy. It is the busiest place in Dar es Salaam as most of the businesses are conducted here. You can use your private car to get to this place though there are few packing ares or else you can use Mwendokasi or public transport...

This Market has been very important since its a center where various products are sold out from different countries and it has been accommodating people from the East African community and out of the community hence has build strong relations among people of Tanzania and out of Tanzania,it also enables the Tanzanian government to earn revenues through tax collection resulting to the strong Tanzanian economy.

It's an amazing place for shopping since there is availability of many and wide different commodities for cheap (local Price), the center of fresh fruits, vegetables and other crops.
The main thing you should be carefully of is thieves since the place is so busy and crowded by business people and customers.

The market contain variety of goods and services at on going price and sometime low price
