The Tanzanite Experience in Arusha educated visitors about the history and unique qualities of tanzanite, a rare gemstone found only in Tanzania. The museum provides guided tours through interactive exhibitions, offering insights into tanzanite's history, mining process, and cutting techniques.
Knowledgeable guides share tales of Tanzanite's discovery and its journey from mine to market. Visitors can explore an imitation mine shaft, touch tanzanite, and hear myths and stories about the gemstone. Other than Tanzanite, the museum boasts a vast collection of gemstones like rubies, emeralds, tsavorite, diamonds, sapphires, and opals, as well as art, African antiques, and contemporary paintings and sculptures. Visitors have the option to purchase tanzanite at the museum.
