Travel Tips

Tanzania is a politically stable country and has essentially always been so since its creation in 1964. It's a wonderful place to visit but as is the case of a lot of countries, you have to be careful in the big cities (Arusha, Dar es Salaam and Stone Town in Zanzibar) where pick-pockets are numerous and savvy. It's wise to be wary of people you meet on the streets and come up to tourists to offer all sorts of things, from safaris to bracelets. It's a buyer-beware market. Never exchange money on the street, even if the exchange rate is tempting. As for other precautions, we recommend that you consult the following websites for more information:

It is beyond the scope of this website to present all the National Parks and attractions of Tanzania. Some organizations have done a beautiful job with their websites and we invite you to visit them:
