Frequently asked questions about hotels in Tanzania
What are the best landmarks to visit in Tanzania?
Tanzania boasts incredible landmarks. For wildlife, the Serengeti National Park is unparalleled, known for its Great Migration. Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak, is a breathtaking sight, though climbing it requires significant preparation. The Ngorongoro Crater, a massive caldera, offers a unique ecosystem teeming with animals. Stone Town in Zanzibar, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a captivating historical city with winding alleys and stunning architecture. The breathtaking beaches of Zanzibar are also a must-see.
What are the most popular 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Tanzania?
A Tanzanian safari is a must, experiencing the incredible wildlife firsthand. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is a challenging but rewarding feat. Exploring the spice plantations of Zanzibar offers a sensory experience. Going on a dhow cruise along the Zanzibar coast provides stunning sunset views. Visiting the Maasai villages gives a unique insight into their culture, though always do so respectfully and through organised tours.
The best time to visit depends on your priorities. June to October is the dry season, ideal for safaris with clear skies and good visibility. November to May is the wet season, bringing lush landscapes but potentially impacting safari viewing. The best time for climbing Kilimanjaro is generally during the drier months.
What are the best family friendly hotels in Tanzania?
Which areas are best for spending a week in Tanzania?
A week allows for a good balance. Combining the Serengeti National Park with a stay in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area provides an incredible wildlife experience. Alternatively, you could spend time in Zanzibar, exploring Stone Town, the beaches, and the spice plantations. Another option is combining a safari in the northern circuit with a relaxing beach holiday in Zanzibar.
What are the best pet friendly hotels in Tanzania?
Which parts of Tanzania are perfect for a weekend getaway?
A weekend getaway is best spent in Zanzibar. You can explore Stone Town's historical sites, relax on the beautiful beaches, and potentially take a spice tour. Arusha, the gateway to many national parks, could work if focusing on a specific park close by, but a longer trip is recommended for a proper safari experience.
What are the best hotels with jacuzzi in Tanzania?
Is renting a car recommended for exploring Tanzania?
Renting a car is generally not recommended for exploring national parks; guided safari tours are safer and more effective. Within cities like Arusha or Dar es Salaam, it's possible but traffic can be challenging. For Zanzibar, a car is less essential; taxis and other forms of transport are readily available.
What are the best hotels with a swimming pool in Tanzania?
Credit card acceptance is limited, especially outside major cities and tourist areas. Cash, particularly Tanzanian shillings, is essential, particularly in smaller towns and villages. ATMs are available in larger towns and cities, but it's wise to carry sufficient cash.
What are the largest airports in Tanzania?
Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar es Salaam is the largest and busiest airport. Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) near Mount Kilimanjaro is another significant airport, serving as a gateway to northern Tanzania's safari destinations.
Are there any unwritten rules of behaviour visitors should know about in Tanzania?
Dress modestly, particularly when visiting villages or religious sites. Always ask permission before taking photographs of people. Bargaining is common in markets, but do so respectfully. Learn a few basic Swahili phrases; it's appreciated. Be mindful of local customs and traditions.
What local specialties should you try in Tanzania?
Try Nyama Choma (grilled meat), a Tanzanian staple. Pilau, a spiced rice dish, is another popular option. Mishkaki, grilled meat skewers, are delicious street food. For something different, try Urojo, a spicy soup. Zanzibar's cuisine offers unique dishes influenced by its history, including seafood and Swahili-influenced dishes.
Where are the best shopping spots in Tanzania?
The Kariakoo Market in Dar es Salaam is a vibrant and bustling market offering a wide variety of goods. Stone Town in Zanzibar has many shops selling spices, crafts, and souvenirs. Arusha offers various shops selling Tanzanian crafts and souvenirs. For more upscale shopping, look for malls in larger cities.
What signature events or festivals take place in Tanzania?
The Saba Saba Day (7th July) is a national public holiday celebrating the Union Day. The Zanzibar International Film Festival is a significant cultural event. Various local festivals are held throughout the year, often celebrating harvests or cultural events; checking local listings closer to your travel dates is recommended.
What’s the best place in Tanzania for mild and comfortable weather?
The highlands around Mount Kilimanjaro and the northern parts of the country generally offer milder temperatures compared to the coastal regions. Areas like Arusha and Moshi offer pleasant weather for much of the year.
What are the most common travel mistakes tourists make in Tanzania?
Not booking accommodation and tours in advance, especially during peak season. Underestimating the cost of travelling and not budgeting adequately. Not carrying enough cash. Ignoring health precautions and not getting necessary vaccinations or malaria prophylaxis. Not respecting local customs and traditions.
What are some hidden gems to explore in Tanzania?
The Saadani National Park, combining wildlife with coastal scenery, is less crowded than other parks. The Selous Game Reserve, a vast wilderness area, offers a more secluded safari experience. The Mafia Island Marine Park offers exceptional diving and snorkelling opportunities. Lake Manyara National Park, known for its tree-climbing lions, is relatively less visited than other parks in the northern circuit.
