I went to Zanzibar, an island just off the Tanzanian coast, part of the country. Lovely city there, Stonetown. Bustling like you never find in the west. Didn't see much of the mainland, but it was very pleasant. People are friendly enough, and it's easy to have a great time.
I can't stress this enough about Johannesburg and South Africa in general (fucking shithole of race-segregation that it still is), but BE CAREFUL. Seriously. Watch what cabs you get into. My brother and a mate got dumped in a bad part of town by their cabbie, and they were promptly mugged by his mates. So take care. Might want to get one of those under-your-shirt travellers pouches for your passport and papers.
But Tanzania's lovely. Shame about the rural poverty, though.
