Arusha Tanzanite Shopping Experience

Duration

1 Day

Blue-violet tanzanite gemstones for a guided shopping experience with Tartaruga Safaris

Discover Tanzania’s blue-violet gemstone with a private tanzanite shopping experience in Arusha. Our Tartaruga guide helps organise visits to selected showrooms around your interests, whether you want to learn about the stone, compare jewellery or choose a keepsake.

Allow time to ask the retailer about colour, cut, treatment, certification and care. Purchases are entirely optional and paid directly to the retailer; gemstone valuation and any customs requirements are separate from our guiding service. We confirm the shops, opening times, transfers and any museum visit before departure.
