Is it Safe to Visit Tanzania:
Tanzania has historically been considered a safe destination for travellers. While petty crime can occur in some urban areas, overall safety risks have been relatively low. However, it's important to stay informed about the current political climate, health precautions, and safety guidelines.Wildlife encounters, a highlight of Tanzanian tourism, should be approached with caution, following the guidance of experienced guides. Staying informed and taking common-sense precautions can contribute to a safe and enjoyable visit to Tanzania.
Best Time to Visit Tanzania:
The best time to visit Tanzania is during the dry season from June to September when you can enjoy not only excellent animal spotting on safaris but also outdoor activities like hiking, cultural experiences, and exploring diverse landscapes while avoiding heavy rains.- June-September (Cool and Dry): Great for safaris with dry weather, ideal for animal spotting near water sources. Hotels can be crowded and costly.
- October-February (Slightly Wet and Warm): Good for safaris but hotter, with occasional short rains starting in late October.
- March-May (Wet): Heavy rains can make roads muddy and some areas inaccessible. Landscapes are lush, and some hotels may offer discounts, though some could be closed.
How to Reach Tanzania:
Reaching Tanzania is convenient through its international airports, road border crossings, and waterway access points.- By Air: The most common way to reach Tanzania is by air. You can fly into major international airports like Julius Nyerere International Airport in Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro International Airport near Arusha, or Abeid Amani Karume International Airport in Zanzibar.
- By Road: Tanzania shares land borders with several neighbouring countries, including Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and Zambia. You can enter Tanzania by road through border crossings.
- By Waterway: If you're on the islands of Zanzibar or Pemba, or if you're travelling from nearby coastal areas, you can reach Tanzania by ferry. There are regular ferry services connecting Zanzibar to Dar es Salaam and other coastal towns. Additionally, some cargo and passenger ships may offer waterway access to Tanzania's ports.
Ideal Duration to Spend in Tanzania:
The ideal duration for your visit to Tanzania varies with your interests. A classic wildlife safari typically takes 7-10 days. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro requires about 6-8 days, plus acclimatization. For a relaxing Zanzibar beach vacation, 5-7 days is ideal. If you want to explore Tanzania's culture and history in-depth, plan for 2-3 weeks. If you are combining experiences, allocate 2-3 weeks or more for a comprehensive trip.Travel Tips for Tanzania:
- Embrace the 'Mzungu' Tag: Don't be surprised if locals call you 'Mzungu,' which means 'explorer' or 'restless.' It's a common term for foreigners, and it's often used in a friendly manner.
- Capture Wildlife: Carry a good quality camera with a telephoto lens to capture stunning close-up shots of wildlife in their natural habitat during safaris.
- Price Check: Prices may be inflated for foreigners, so consult your tour guide before making significant purchases to ensure you're getting a fair deal.
- Malaria Prevention: Tanzania has chloroquine-resistant malaria, so consult a healthcare professional for the appropriate anti-malaria medication before your trip.
- Beware of Impersonators: Be cautious of individuals posing as police officers, especially in tourist areas. Stick to well-lit and populated areas if you're out after dark.
- Migration Timing: To witness the annual migration of zebras and other wildlife, plan your visit for February and March, the prime months for this incredible natural spectacle.
- Safari Attire: Wear light or neutral-coloured clothing on safari to blend in with the surroundings. Avoid wearing contact lenses due to potential dust.
- Kilimanjaro Care: If climbing Kilimanjaro, carry Neosporin to treat frostnip, and follow your tour guide's detailed checklist for a safe and successful journey.
- Local Cuisine: Try local Tanzanian dishes and street food for an authentic culinary experience, but ensure the food is prepared and served hygienically.
- Respect Local Customs: Respect local customs and traditions, such as covering shoulders and knees when visiting religious sites or rural communities.

- Learn Basic Swahili: Learning a few basic Swahili phrases can enhance your interaction with locals and make your trip more enjoyable.
- Travel Insurance: Purchase comprehensive travel insurance to cover unexpected events, such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, or lost luggage.
