Tanzania: Gay and Lesbian

Homosexuality is illegal in Tanzania. Generally, it's still largely a taboo subject, lesbianism doubly so, and many Tanzanians take the attitude that it's a foreign, un-African practice. There are however, a few gay friendly accommodations including in Arusha the Shades of Serengeti, Hotel Oasis and New Acropol in Morogoro, and the Emerson & Green Hotel and Zamani Zanzibar Kempinski in Zanzibar. Discretion is advised.
