Plan your Tanzania journey
Flying into Tanzania
Choose the airport that fits your route—not simply the first fare you find.
For northern Tanzania
Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) is a practical arrival point for Moshi, Arusha and northern safari journeys. Arusha Airport (ARK) is a different airport, frequently used for domestic connections.
For the coast
Zanzibar (ZNZ) and Dar es Salaam (DAR) can suit island or coastal chapters. An open-jaw ticket, arriving at JRO and departing Zanzibar, can avoid backtracking.
Before booking flights
Send us the flights you are considering so transfer distances and safari connections can be checked. Leave appropriate connection buffers, particularly when changing airports. Routes and schedules change; only your confirmed booking establishes the flight arrangements.
