Dala dala are minibus share taxis in Tanzania.[1] These converted trucks and minibuses are the primary public transportation system in the country.[2] While the name originates from the English word "dollar", they are also referred to as thumni.[2]
Before minibuses became widely used, a truck with benches placed in the bed was the typical Tanzanian privately owned public transport.[3] Called chai maharagwe, these were popular and also used to transport and deliver goods along the route c. 1990.[2]
While dala dala may run fixed routes picking up passengers at central locations,[4] they will also stop anywhere along their route to drop someone off or allow a prospective passenger to board.[1]
In contrast to most of these minibuses, in Dar es Salaam some dala dala are publicly operated as of 2008.[AICD 1]
