VISAs and Vaccinations

VISAs

You may need a visa to enter Tanzania, so check in good time before you leave.  You can get one from your local Tanzanian High Commission before you travel or get a tourist or business visa for a single entry on arrival at main ports of entry to Tanzania, subject to the fulfilment of all immigration requirements.  The cost will vary depending where you are travelling from.

Vaccinations

While Tanzania is a relatively safe country, it is advisable to have a few vaccinations prior to travel. 

 

If you are arriving from certain countries, you will need to bring your yellow fever vaccination certificate.  When you are in the bush (or we recommend for the entire stay), it’s sensible to take malaria prophylaxis.

 

As with all medication, please ensure you check with your GP or a medical practitioner first to obtain the correct advice.

​

Please remember medical and travel insurance is essential for any safari tour.
