When the time comes, your driver will take you for your transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO). It’s time to say goodbye, but not farewell. You’ll board your return flight with your heart and mind full of unforgettable images: the power of a lion in the Serengeti, the raw beauty of the Ngorongoro Crater, and the warmth of Tanzanian smiles. This is not the end of a journey, but the beginning of African memories that will last a lifetime.

In summary: Which season should you choose?

For optimal wildlife viewing, the long dry season of June to October is unmatched. The vegetation is low and the animals congregate near water sources, making safaris particularly fruitful.

For lush green landscapes and the magic of new life, the period of January to March is exceptional, particularly in the southern Serengeti (Ndutu). This is the ideal time for photographers and for observing the intense activity of predators.

To avoid the crowds and enjoy attractive rates, the rainy seasons (March to May and November-December) transform the landscape into a lush garden. These periods offer a more intimate experience of Tanzania.

Prepare Your Travel Documents

Organizing your documents is a key step. Here is the essential information you need to prepare with peace of mind.

Passport

Make sure your passport is valid for at least6 months after your return date planned. It must also include at least two consecutive blank pages.

Electronic Visa (e-Visa) - The Recommended Option

A visa is required. The easiest and safest method is to apply for an electronic visa (e-Visa) before your departure. The cost is **US$50**.

Our advice : Apply at least 3 weeks before your departure to avoid any stress. Only use the official government website.

Access the Official e-Visa Website

Visa on Arrival - The Alternative

It is possible to obtain a visa upon arrival at the airport, but we do not recommend it. The wait can be long, and payment must often be made in US dollars (please have the exact amount ready). Applying online guarantees a much smoother arrival.

Health & Vaccines: Our Recommendations

Your health and safety are our priority. The information below is provided for informational purposes only. We strongly recommend that you consult your doctor or an international vaccination center at least 4 to 6 weeks before your departure.

⚠️ Yellow Fever : The yellow fever vaccine is not mandatory for travelers coming from Europe. It is only mandatory if you have transited for more than 12 hours in a country where the disease is endemic (e.g., Kenya, Ethiopia, etc.).

Recommended Vaccines

  • Update on universal vaccines (diphtheria, tetanus, and polio).
  • Hepatitis A and typhoid fever (related to food and water).
  • Hepatitis B.

Malaria

Malaria is present in Tanzania. Treatmentantimalarial (prophylaxis) is strongly recommended. Protect yourself from mosquito bites with repellents suitable for tropical areas, long clothing in the evening, and a mosquito net (provided in all good accommodations).

Suggested First Aid Kit

Remember to bring a small travel first aid kit with your personal medications, anti-diarrhea medication, antiseptic, bandages, pain reliever (paracetamol), and high SPF sunscreen.
