About Tanzania

Tanzania — landmark photo

Private airport transfers in Tanzania depart from Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) near Dar es Salaam, the country's main gateway, with rides reaching the city center in roughly 30 minutes. Tanzania sits in East Africa on the Indian Ocean, bordering Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the DRC, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique.

Beyond Dar es Salaam, travelers head to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater safaris, the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro, the Stone Town of Zanzibar — a UNESCO site — and the beaches of Nungwi. Transferhood operates fixed-price Tanzania airport transfers to all major destinations, with multilingual drivers and flight monitoring.

Tanzania uses the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS); US dollars are widely accepted in tourism. Safari and Zanzibar itineraries pair well with domestic flights and private transfers at each end.

Travel Guide to Tanzania

The best time to visit Tanzania for safaris is during the dry season from June to October, which also coincides with the Great Migration in the Serengeti. For Zanzibar's beaches and diving, June to October and December to February offer ideal weather.
Most travelers need a visa to enter Tanzania, which can be obtained on arrival or applied for online via the official e-visa system before departure. Citizens of certain African and Caribbean countries may enter visa-free.
The official currency is the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS). US dollars are also accepted in many tourist establishments, particularly for hotels, parks, and tour fees. ATMs are available in major cities and tourist areas.
The official languages are Swahili (Kiswahili) and English. Swahili is the everyday language, while English is widely used in business, education, and tourism, making communication easier for international visitors.
Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), and Zanzibar Airport (ZNZ) are connected to nearby cities by taxi, hotel shuttle, and prebooked transfers. Many travelers use Transferhood.com to ensure a smooth airport pickup before safari or beach trips.
Tanzania is generally safe for tourists, particularly within established safari circuits and beach resorts. Petty crime can occur in larger cities, so it is wise to use trusted transport, follow local advice, and avoid walking alone late at night.
Highlights include Serengeti National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater, Mount Kilimanjaro, Tarangire and Lake Manyara, and the spice islands of Zanzibar. For seamless transfers between airports, lodges, and beach resorts, many travelers rely on Transferhood.com.
Tanzania uses Type D and Type G plugs, with a standard voltage of 230V at 50Hz. The British-style Type G plug is the most common, so travelers from many other regions will need a suitable adapter.
Try ugali (maize porridge), nyama choma (grilled meat), pilau, mishkaki skewers, samaki wa kupaka (fish in coconut sauce), and Zanzibar's spiced biryani and seafood. Fresh tropical fruits and chai (spiced tea) are also local favorites.
Credit cards are accepted in upscale hotels, lodges, and some restaurants, particularly in Dar es Salaam, Arusha, and Zanzibar. However, many smaller businesses, parks, and rural areas still operate primarily on cash, so always carry some shillings or US dollars.
Domestic flights are the most efficient way to cover long distances, especially between Arusha, Zanzibar, and the southern parks. Buses and trains are options for budget travelers, but for safari circuits and airport-to-lodge transfers, private services via Transferhood.com are widely used.
Tipping is an important part of tourism in Tanzania, particularly for safari guides, drivers, porters, and lodge staff. Tipping 10% in restaurants is common, while daily tips for safari teams and Kilimanjaro porters are an essential part of their income.
Tap water in Tanzania is not generally recommended for drinking. Stick to bottled or filtered water, and avoid ice from unknown sources, especially when traveling outside major hotels and lodges.
Tanzanians are warm and respectful; greetings are very important, especially in Swahili. Dress modestly outside beach areas, particularly in Zanzibar's Stone Town and rural villages. Ask permission before photographing people, and follow park regulations strictly.
Public transport in Tanzanian cities relies on dala-dalas (minibuses) and city buses, which can be crowded and confusing for tourists. For safety, comfort, and clearly planned itineraries, especially for safaris and beach transfers, private rides via Transferhood.com are highly recommended.
