NAIROBI KENYA TO CAPE TOWN SOUTH AFRICA BY ROAD | ROAD TRIP BY LIV KENYA EPISODE 3 (TANZANIA 2)🇹🇿 

1. Manyara -Dodoma route is less inhabited, hence fewer social services along the road, so make sure you have all the supplies you need before starting your journey 2. Your Google search experience is on point, you managed to get many facts right and pronounced most names perfectly 3. The move to Dodoma is just recent, though the parliament was always in Dodoma, however, the bigger and better side of Dodoma city was on your left hand side, you navigated the older side of the city. Dodoma is the driest region in Tanzania , but it rains every season and they manage to produce good amount of food. They are the main produces of grapes 🍇 and large quantities of wine. 4. Mtera is not a reservoir, it is a river where large amount of electricity is produced, reason why the place is highly guarded. Those fish are from that river which collects it's water from as far as Mbeya region. 5. You missed an amazing forest plantations from Iringa just before Makambako, that was something should try to see on your way back, I really wish you see it, don't miss!. Also, take the Mbeya- Dar route, it's longer but can offer to you an amazing mountain ranges, you will be surprised honestly!, it's my favorite road route to be honest. 6. While in southern part of Tanzania particularly Iringa, Njombe and Mbeya, try not to eat something too hot during winter season, that whole region is notoriously cold, sometimes some snow fall especially at night, you might not realize how hot the food is until it is too late. Luckily you travelled during the midst of hot season in Tanzania. 7. In tz, beans and vegetables is provided for free in restaurants as an addition to what you have ordered, feel free to ask for when you order your food. Unless you buy to mama ntilie, those food sold at much cheaper price along the streets, they may not include it. You are right about Mbeya city, it occupies a very large area, highly populated but architect and the like is very poor. But food is the cheapest in Mbeyq region than anywhere in tz. Mbeya region alone is the main producer of various seasonal crops. Together with other 4 neighboring regions they form the so called "The Big 5", meaning the 5 regions in tz that literally feed the country and beyond.

You people have done Kenya proud bringing together peoples of central and south Africa region,you deserve more than a pat on the back,if i was the secretary in charge of tourism i would reward you people,thanks for posting.😅

I am a Kenyan living in cape town {mother city} for over 10 years I can't wait to see you all in cape town

Adiya is the treasurer, the historian, the commentator, the navigator, the narrator..go Adiya go! Such a great team of travelers, hopefully you breakdown the costs at the end of it all.

Tanzania landscapes are so beautiful, and the guesthouses are so cheap. Tanzania is in my heart, I will visit there soon 🇿🇦❤🇹🇿

In the back, on the right, she stands with pride, Eloquent and updated, Dodoma her guide. With words, she unfolds the terrain so wide, A poetess of Tanzania, where hills and heat coincide. The terrain, a canvas of nature's own art, She articulates it with a genuine heart. Dodoma's hills, where stories impart, In her verses, the landscape plays its part. The sun's heated touch, in her tales, alive, Dodoma's warmth, through her words, does thrive. Amidst the heat, where stories contrive, She narrates with passion, making memories survive. Architectures standing with a timeless grace, She paints them vividly in the poetic space. Dodoma's structures find in her verse a place, An ode to the buildings, each a unique case. To the girl on back right, with wisdom and might, Dodoma's chronicler, in words so bright. In her eloquence, Tanzania takes flight, A storyteller weaving the hills, heat, and architectural light.

So far so good Adiya is real gem with great ideas

Ladies and gents please watch the adverts to support our people. It's very important

+37:35 The houses are constructed using fired clay bricks, which apart from being aesthetically pleasing actually is one of the strongest and longest lasting building materials still used. That is also where they get that earthy redish/brown color from, apart from obviously also getting covered by dust/soil. In many regions of Tanzania there remains a strong building tradition using these fired bricks for housing construction and thus the practice is not at all related to any assumed nomadic traditions.. Keep up your lovely trip reports we enjoy them a lot! //Ahsanteni Sana!!

The train you heard is the TAZARA RAILWAY LINE.WHICH TRAVEL FROM DAR TO ZAMBI ALL THE WAT CAPE TOWN, ROVOS TRAIN IS ALL USING THE SAME LINE TO TRAVEL FROM CAPE TOWN TO DAR. MAKAMBAKO/NJOMBE IS THE AREA WHERE IN WINTER SEASON ITS SNOWING. IRINGA U SAW A ALOT OF TIMBERS BCOZ HUKO NDIKO KUNA MASHAMBA YA MBAO 99% YA TZ.

TZ is so organised. I loved that when I visited the country

Liv is on another level..,looks like a journalist somewhere from the royal media services.., eloquent and composed.Your tenacity is top notch.., waiting for the 4th episode!

Dodoma city is under contstruction; many things are being constructed such as Msalato international airport, embassies, government city (a very modern one), Dodoma studium, ringroads aroung the city, etc. After 10 years it’s when somebody can give a just comment about Dodoma.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! SHOW THIS COMMENT TO PATRICK!!!! This one special comment goes specifically for Patrick I love when he is behind the camera and films buses wherever they pass by not only this video but also all your videos across different countries. That proves he love buses and I love buses too... I really wanna Thank him for that

Tunduma border is the busiest border in east and central Africa ,you can see how busy is Tunduma town

Mbeya town is chaotic but mbeya region as whole is the bread basket of Tanzania and Kenya as no region in East Africa produce more food crops than mbeya, on you way back , you will cross border from malawi to Tanzania ,you will see the best of mbeya region through those farm land of kyela, Tukuyu hoping you will buy cheap rice and lots of banana

Mbeya region is Tanzania's food basket. Almost everything grows in that region, from rice, bananas, beans, avocados, cocoa, Irish potatoes e. t. c. Trucks from all east and southern Africa flock the region to ferry produce.

LIV your traveling team is very awesome 👏 I like it

The capital was moved from Dar Es Salaam to Dodoma......same way Kenya's capital was moved from Mombasa to Nairobi....only that for Dodoma its recent that explains its size. its basically the Administrative capital (parliament, presidency etc) of TZ while Dar Es Salaam is the Commercial capital......and the railway to Zambia is called Tazara

Dodoma was made a capital just recently, four to five years ago, so that is why everything is under construction. it is a new baby city.

we appreciate the length of the video,would you mindmaking longer videos,even if its 2 hours i assure you we will watch every second

The railway you saw in Makambako is Tanzania Zambia Railway TAZARA. Sometimes Rovos Luxurius train use it from Cape Town to Dar Es Salaam

It would be very interesting if you could overlay a translucent map on your video of this trip so that it’s easier to relate the story to the location. Very great video.

The electrified raiway in Dodoma is Tanzania SGR from Dar es salaam to Mwanza , soon will start operating between Dar to Dodoma, same distance like Nairobi to mombasa

Ac does not use gasoline. It's called freon..I think dodoma is a good capital..small and less congestion is great..

That is TAZARA railway it trve across dsm to Zambia

You guys are such a vibe and a good team. I love the way Adiya is articulate.

A 32 Km dual carriage is about to be constructed through Mbeya city, the randomness is temporary. Good thing with Mbeya the CBD is away from the main highway

When you are doing Kenya- Egypt don’t leave me. Love from Uganda

I was born in Mbeya and grew up there, in 90s and early 2000s it was still a small town. When it started growing the authority didn't have a city master plan so they let people build houses in whichever way they wanted. Now the city is over congested and unplanned. Population is increasing rapidly with no place to build a school or health center. No place to breathe 😂😂 Maybe the 30km dual carriageway and a bypass for trucks expected to complete by 2025 will reduce the chaos. But for mbeya to be organized a lot of houses need to be demolished. Naipenda mbeya kuliko sehemu yoyote Tz.

yall are literally the best traveller channel to exiat and we cant wait for more..... be spontaneous or go home is our new motto

Makambako is so cold And Southern Tanzania (Iringa,Njombe and Mbeya) This regions are the coldest in the country

I am really enjoying this episode laughing and smiling all the way, sending u love from Tanzania

I bumped into this channel today,and let me tell you Maina, am here to stayyyy

I am impressed by the cleanliness of Dodoma city

This is real adventure, thanks for showcasing the beauty of "modest TZ"... its breath taking

Hadzabe tribe wear wild animal skin. They are from TZ , I don't know the exact region where they live. They are hunters and gatherers UpTo to date. They click sounds in their language. Check out the tribe, have very interesting culture

Dodoma, Arusha ,Iringa, Mbeya, Njombe, Kilimanjaro, Manyara is usually always very cold regions,

This was so much fun,.

Jane and Victor have been a great addition to ur channel... They should stay forever.

Hongera! Thank you for sharing your season of life. GOD speed. Takbir! May the all mighty bless your hands. Amin! From an unusual not so cold T.O

Beautiful and lovely Tz trip....looking forward to crossing over to Zambia.

Say hi to our Kisii guy hehehe the accent says it all ....he seems to be humble.."finarry we are rooking at the great rift valley"......

I'm watching this at work, that's how much this adventure has hooked me... great work guys

Brave ladies. Building lifetime memories ❤

I'm abit surprised how arid the interior of TZ is. Dodoma is much smaller than I thought but small can be good. Overall TZ seems to have decent road infrastructure. Great to see the Train service being upgraded.

The main tribes in Dodoma are Gogos, Rangis and Sandawes as you said. Sandawes and Rangis are found in northern part of Dodoma around Kondoa district. Though they really speak with clicking sound like bush men of Southern Africa, but they no longer wear goat skins.

Tha railway line is Tanzania Zambia Railway (TAZARA). The rail line was built by Chinese in 70s The line runs from Dar es Salaam to Kapirimposhi in Zambia. The line is a cape gauge so there is a connection from Kapirimposhi to South Africa. The tourists train that sometimes use the line from South Africa to Dar es Salaam is a private owned called RAVOS.

Hey Liv Kenya, good stuff. I have been following your series closely for a quite sometime. I was wondering if you could purchase a 20-25 litre Jerrycan to buy extra fuel at Shell or Total and avoid buying fuel at local petrol stations since that can affect your car engine. Otherwise , much love from Uganda. we are enjoying 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬

If you could have enough time in Dodoma you could visit the Magufuli city Its were the actual administrative capital is

Tanzania is beautiful I would like to visit it as my first country

Enjoy... following from Kampala-UGANDA East Africa 🎉🎉🎉

Watching from Kigali, Capital city doesn't have to be the biggest or the richest city. It's sometimes good to decongest.

I will not miss a single episode

They recently did the speed trial for the electric train..it's quite fast over 250kms/h

30:18 mama solemba restaurant. At iringa. Nice food there reasonable prices

Hello, Team. I am a Jamaican who wants to thank you for showing me Africa through the eys of your camera. It is beautiful. At some time, somehow, I pray to God that I will step on its soil. Keep up the good work.

Dar es Salaam WAS the capital city of Tanzania upto 1996 when it was moved to Dodoma. Dar is at the extreme Eastern end of Tz and it was far from most of the country. It was moved to Dodoma which is more central than Dar. Same thing that happened in Nigeria when the capital was moved from Lagos to Abuja. Dar remains the commercial capital of Tz while Dodoma is the administrative capital

10:17 Actually, Dar es salaam was initially the capital city of Tz but since it was too far, Dodoma was made the capital city since it is more centralized location in Tz.

You are inspiring me to tour Tanzania their landscape..hills.. plateau everything

Dodoma was announced the Capital city of Tanzania since Mwalimu Nyarere regime! Ever since the implementation was being done step by step including .... 1. To make sure the infrastructure particularly roads are well grounded to make sure Dodoma is reachable from every angle of Tanzania. This was much highlighted during President Jakaya Kikwete regime when Magufuli was the minister responsible for infrastructure 2. As Dodoma is dry, so the government needed to ascertain there is enough water to serve the population before all the government activities moved to Dodoma (Which was also accomplished as now despite the fact that Dodoma is dry, the City has enough water supply to serve the population) .... those are some of the reasons as from what I know

The background music on the videos is on point

Liv,you have really made my night...I laughed my heart out regarding the Tanzanian people trusting anyone with their goods when you think of what will happen to you if you try that in any part of Kenya. Iam proud of you guys for making our country be known by you guys taking the brutal trip.

super super awesome content Olivia n team . Adia should create a new RU-vid for bloopers and extra footage you don't include in liv kenya page. Did you know Adia is a girl's name that travels beautifully.

You guys inspired me, I wanna have a road trip someday too, from Nairobi to Durban, and back yk

Tanzania is soo beautiful

Am hopping you are dropping another video soonest , I have Been anxiously waiting for it.

My guys I am enjoying this vlogs so much like I was with them on the road trip...thanks Liv and company for frying the Kenyan frag all the way to south Africa 🎉🎉🎉

Great adventunture there following the trip all the way from bahrain....keep them coming

Am travelling with you! so far I like Tanzanian terrain and views.

Inspiring us to travel soon. Thank you for sharing! Tanzania looks really relaxing!

Welcome to Tanzania brothers and sisters. Dodoma has a lot of varities of wine, pls test one.

Hi,Dodoma is the right place for a city.Not congested or crazy like Kampala or Nairobi..A good example is like Canada, Ottawa is the major city but it's the most boring and least developed like other cities i.e Toronto, Vancouver etc.Same also applies to America, capital is Washington DC,it's slow compared to new York or L.A.And Abuja compared to the crazy Lagos...I believe capital cities should like Dodoma

LivKenya, your channel is addictive. Enjoying every step of the journey.

That place looks nice. It is dry reminds me somewhere in Arizona or near Las Vegas. Hiyo fluid ya ac inaitwa Freon.

Amazing views along the way. What an adventure you've had!

I am very proud of you, thats a great and big decesion you decide

36:49 the railway is called TAZARA (TANZANZIA-ZAMBIA RAILWAY LINE). connects Tanz Dar es salaam to ZA-Kapiri Mposhi

I am sharing this with my south African friend...I love you liv with your team,you are simple but yet unique in your own way.

Since I saw your channel travel vlog is amazing I'm in UK I always wanna watch Africa especially travelling videos like this is amazing keep it up Africa is so beautiful Thank you very much for videos beautiful Africa I definitely subscribe your channel🙏

i think it will be good if you be including dates on your videos so that we know when exactly you were at a certain point ,at the end of the trip also give fuel estimates of the entire journey ,we pan ourselves too ,your videos are awesome ,you made us feel like we are with you over ,keep up

Oooooh woooow, this is an incredible crew ever, I love the eloquence of the grate lady seated at the back right, she is just a GEM, always on point and very articulate on her expression... Keep it up, next time i might join this team for a serious exploration ... I cant wait for the next episode ... VIVA.

Love this vitual trip iam enjoy every bit of this road trip

I love this road trip series. My dream is to one day do a trip from Kenya to Namibia by road. N/B: From my research Namibia is so vast and isolated so shida ya fuel inaweza kua noma. Get enough fuel when you reach there coz you'll be travelling many kilometres isolated in the desert wilderness. Enjoy the adventure and safe journey to South Africa.

Folloeing slowly .. good job my sister❤❤🎉🎉

Wonderful landscape

I can't wait till we welcome you in South Africa....lovely to see your journey though our beautiful African towns and cities. I pray God protects you through out!

What an adventure. Well done and keep it up.

Makambako is always cold

The 5ltrs of oil at that price really shocked me. Next trip lazima nijoin

Semi-arid and arid climates make for the sweetest watermelon due to the intense heat. Best Kenyan watermelon I've tasted are from Turkana, Isiolo, Marsabit, Wajir, Garisa and Mandera counties.

I was in Dodoma a few weeks ago for the first time. Seeing this video, it has given me fresh and fond memories of the city. ❤

Tazara is the train - Tanzania - Zambia railway, and the train itself is also known as Tazara...it terminates in Zambia. The luxury train from South Africa is private and just once in awhile uses the rail to Dar

The fish you ate is called " Perege" in swahili.

Much love for this channel

Amazing..❤❤ Tanzania is beautiful cant wait for the next episode

loving the trip in the comfort of my sitting room. The furthest i have been to tanzania is Arusha via Namanga. But after Dodoma the semi aridity is extreme. Uganda has indeed been some green country

That was awesome.I will be waiting for the next episode,I can only imagine of the sunrise from your campsite, should be one to die for. Nawapenda STAY SAFE❤

Hi, thanks for your videos girl keep up,HOD bless you and have a safe trip

Joining you for the tour stay safe
