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 with its vast plains and annual wildebeest migration is unparalleled. Ngorongoro Crater, a collapsed volcano offering a unique ecosystem, is another must-see. For something different, climb Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak, or explore the stunning Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve), renowned for its diverse wildlife and vast size.
  • What are the most popular 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Tanzania?

    Among 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Tanzania, Hebe Bungalows Lodge, Al-minar Hotel and Mediterraneo Boutique Hotel are the most popular ones.

  • What are some must-do activities in Tanzania?

    A safari is essential – witnessing the Great Migration in the Serengeti is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is a challenging but rewarding feat. Exploring Zanzibar's Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, offers a cultural immersion. Spice tours on Zanzibar showcase the islands' aromatic history. Lastly, a dhow cruise along the coast provides a relaxing way to enjoy the stunning scenery.
  • What are the best luxury hotels in Tanzania?

  • When is the ideal time to visit Tanzania?

    The best time to visit depends on your priorities. June to October is the dry season, ideal for safaris with clear skies and easy game viewing. November to May is the wet season, with more rainfall, but lush landscapes and fewer crowds. Zanzibar enjoys warm weather year-round, but the best time to visit is during the dry season.
  • What are the best family friendly hotels in Tanzania?

    The best family friendly hotels in Tanzania are The Loop Beach Resort, Hebe Bungalows Lodge and Zanzibar Sunrise At Bandas.

  • Which areas are best for spending a week in Tanzania?

    A week allows for a good safari experience. Combining the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater is a popular choice. Alternatively, a northern circuit including Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area offers diverse wildlife viewing. For a different experience, spend a few days on safari and then explore Zanzibar's beaches and Stone Town.
  • What are the best pet friendly hotels in Tanzania?

  • Which parts of Tanzania are perfect for a weekend getaway?

    For a short trip, Zanzibar is perfect. Explore Stone Town's historical sites, relax on the beaches of Nungwi or Kendwa, and indulge in water sports. Arusha, the gateway to many national parks, offers a taste of Tanzanian culture and could be combined with a day trip to a nearby park like Arusha National Park.
  • What are the best hotels with jacuzzi in Tanzania?

    Savera Beach Houses, Paje Blu Boutique Hotel and Zanzibella Hotel & Spa are the best hotels with a jacuzzi in Tanzania.

  • Is renting a car recommended for exploring Tanzania?

    Renting a car is generally not recommended for exploring national parks; organised safaris are safer and more effective. However, for exploring towns and cities outside of park areas, a car can be useful, but driving conditions can be challenging, and 4x4 vehicles are often necessary.
  • What are the best hotels with a swimming pool in Tanzania?

    Passion Boutique Hotel Zanzibar - Adults Only, Marafiki Beach Hotel & Spa and Savera Beach Houses are among the best hotels with a swimming pool in Tanzania.

  • Are credit cards widely accepted in Tanzania?

    Credit card acceptance is limited, especially outside major cities and tourist areas. Cash, particularly Tanzanian shillings, is preferred for most transactions. It's advisable to carry sufficient cash and inform your bank of your travel plans.
  • What are the largest airports in Tanzania?

    The Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar es Salaam is the largest and busiest airport. Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) near 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 religious sites. 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 choice. Mishkaki, grilled meat skewers, are delicious street food. For seafood, try fresh fish from the coast. Don't forget to sample local fruits like mangoes and passion fruit.
  • Where are the best shopping spots in Tanzania?

    Stone Town in Zanzibar offers a vibrant array of shops selling spices, textiles, and souvenirs. Dar es Salaam has larger shopping malls and markets for a wider variety of goods. Local markets in smaller towns provide a more authentic shopping experience, offering handicrafts and local produce.
  • What signature events or festivals take place in Tanzania?

    The Saba Saba Day (7 July) is a national public holiday celebrating the Union Day. The Zanzibar International Film Festival showcases African cinema. Various cultural festivals celebrating tribal traditions occur throughout the year in different regions, though specific dates vary.
  • What’s the best place in Tanzania for mild and comfortable weather?

    The highlands around Mount Kilimanjaro and the northern regions offer relatively mild temperatures year-round compared to the coastal areas or the Serengeti plains. Areas like Moshi and Arusha tend to have pleasant temperatures.
  • What are the most common travel mistakes tourists make in Tanzania?

    Underestimating the cost of safaris, not booking accommodations and tours in advance (especially during peak season), neglecting malaria precautions, and not carrying enough cash are frequent mistakes. Also, overlooking visa requirements and failing to pack appropriate clothing for varying climates are common issues.
  • What are some hidden gems to explore in Tanzania?

    The Saadani National Park, combining wildlife viewing with coastal scenery, is relatively less crowded than other parks. The Udzungwa Mountains National Park, a rainforest area with endemic species, offers a unique experience. Lake Natron, known for its flamingo flocks and unique landscape, is another lesser-known but stunning location.
