The Tanzanite Experience is a (free) small but very informative museum. Our guide, Beverly, walked us through and gave us a detailed explanation of what tanzanite is, how it's mined and refined, and what are the characteristics. Beverly was very nice and smiley and it was an overall pleasant visit. There is also a shop in front of the museum. I had a limited budget, but Beverly helped me choose the perfect set to match my wishes with my budget. She also advised me on what looked good on me and on the quality of the tanzanite jewellery. I was also congratulated on becoming one of tanzanite owners. It was a nice experience shopping there. The jewellery is more expensive compared to the jewellery stores on the street, however, Tanzanite Experience provided me with all certificates and advised me on how to declare / what to show at the airport, so I feel it was definitely worth it. Therefore, Tanzanie Experience recommended.

I can't exaggerate how good this buying experience was. I visited the outlet in the Four Points hotel in Arusha. Elitruda waited on me and led me meticulously through the process of selecting a cutting and selecting a setting. The gem cutting and jewelry craftsmanship are unparalleled. Elitruda enriched the experience by narrating the history of the gem and its value on the market. The provision of detailed certificates and the duty free pricing made this more of an investment than a purchase. But I will be back to invest in all the people I love.

I had an amazing experience working with The Tanzanite Experience to design my custom made pendant. I got the best present for my loved one! An you do not need to be on site, you can handle the entire process with an Internet connection. The level of customer service is exceptional. The Team, particularly Mr Liebard their General Manager, was so helpful in selecting the appropriate stone for my needs and budget. They were always professional and effective in their communication. I did not think that the entire process could be done on such short notice… perfect for people who tend to be late with anniversary gifts 😊. Their collaborative tool was incredibly helpful, allowing me to be involved in every step of the process, from my initial idea to conception, the design and production phase. (Yes, you can actually see them creating your piece almost in real time.) I received real-time pictures and updates on the forging of the pendant, which made the entire experience engaging, informative, unique and exciting. The final product exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a personalized and unforgettable present with a proper certificate of Authenticity A real “Tanzanite Experience”

I highly recommend visiting Tanzanite experience if you are interested in the history of tanzanite or in purchasing some. Rebecca, our guide and salesperson was highly knowledgeable and patient with our indecision. We checked a couple of other places but came back and bought from Rebeca. We had confidence in their assessments of the stones and their value. I highly recommend.

The Tanzanite Experience is THE place to go for Tanzanite stones and jewelry. I actually ordered online (from Switzerland) as I was looking for an engagement stone and Eunice, along with the entire sales team, were incredibly helpful. Eunice responded extremely quickly and shared photos of many stones with detailed descriptions making it possible for me to the find the perfect one. Payment was secure, fast and easy and confirmation from the sales team was fast and professional. The stone was shipped via DHL express within the estimated delivery time and arrived safely and securely. Included with the stone were the signed authentication documents and some information on the stone itself which was wonderful and interesting to read. I appreciate that all aspects of the processing and documentation of the stone are done locally. I hope I can visit their museum one day in the future (I have heard from friends and family who have visited that it is even more impressive in person). If you're looking for a special stone with great provenance look no further!

I was traveling with Overseas Adventure Travel and this was a stop as part of our travel itinerary. My husband and I were impressed with the staff and the tanzanite presentation provided by this shop. We were not pressured in any way to purchase, when we looked at all the beautiful gemstones. When we decided to purchase a gemstone, Beverly was very helpful in explaining what we were looking at and buying. She was pleasant and highly professional. We felt comfortable purchasing this precious gemstone and highly recommend this shop. Nancy and Randy, USA

I was doubtful about the value of this visit but it turned out to be very interesting. Admission is free, we have a film that explains the search for tanzanite and the process to end up with a jewel. Then we visit a reproduction of a mine with a guide that gives very interesting explanations. Then the store. Very nice jewelry but a little expensive:-) but it’s just for the pleasure of the eyes. In short 30 minutes of sightseeing that are worthwhile. Very clean toilet.

The Tanzanite Experience is an absolute gem—both literally and figuratively! This boutique museum and store provides an insightful journey into the fascinating world of the rare Blue Zoisite. Derrick’s thorough explanation of the history, mining process, and cultural significance made the immersive tour both educational and captivating. Thanks to Derrick’s guidance, we found a piece that perfectly matched style and budget without feeling pressured to buy. If you’re in Arusha, don’t miss the chance to visit the Tanzanite Experience. It’s more than just a store.

Odilia was amazing! They have a short film explaining the discovery of tanzanite, then she walked us through the mining process and answered questions. With grace and patience she showed us pieces and responded to questions, even offered tea or coffee. We were very happy with our customized and certified purchases.

We looked at 6 tanzanite shops to purchase a memorable gift for our holiday and each time was disappointed until we met Beverly Laizer at the Arusha Airport shop. She was simply amazing, understood the mission and arranged for the purchase of an expensive item to be deleivered from a previous store, resized and transported to our hotel in Zanzibar. Further to this we made two further purchases we had not expected to make. No sales pressure. A really delightful experience made possibly by Beverly.
