Every year, with a tourist purpose, Tanzania visits at least one million people. And it is not surprising, since almost half of this country is under government. A total of more than eight dozen national parks, including maritime, reserves, reserves and other controlled land. There is the highest peak in Africa, Kilimanjaro Mountain, the largest lake on the continent of Victoria, and a large number of other natural and historical attractions, both within the country and the coast of the Indian Ocean. It should be noted that a large number of tourists who come to Tanzania do it independently, without resorting to the help of travel companies.
First of all, with the right organization of such a journey, you can save on financial expenses, but not even the essence. Many want to pay so much time as much as I would like, and do not depend on standard programs. Who did not come across a situation where the tour or excursion comes to a visit to several objects at once, and to see the place of interest, you have to attend those that do not cause interest. This negatively affects not only in vain spent time, but also financial expenses. An individually traveled journey, eliminates such moments.
In order to properly organize an independent tour, you need to make a certain action plan. First of all, it is first to determine the choice of visiting sites to further adjust the route under it. For example, you want to visit Mount Kilimanjaro. The nearest airport is in forty kilometers, it is International Airport Arusha Kilimanjaro.
It became a way to be considered to this point of destination, respectively, and a hotel for accommodation in close proximity. If the goal of the trip is a more extensive acquaintance with Tanzania, providing for a visit to several places, then to such a trip it is worth further than more seriously, worked out all the options for possible movement and types of transport. Only in this case, you can get an approximate picture of the route itself and cash costs. Domestic flights in Tanzania are quite well developed, about thirty airports work on the territory of the country. The main airlines on the country's domestic flights are: Air Tanzania., Coastal Aviation. and Precision AIR. . Often, tourists use the services Zanair. or FlightLink. . Tickets can be booked and purchase online, on airlines sites or in one of the tourist offices in the country itself. Do not be lazy and view what is offered different carriers. The cost difference is sometimes very significant.
According to African standards, railways in Tanzania are quite developed.
There is a message between all major cities and even neighboring Zambia. The fare depends on the class of the wagon, which are four, namely: a sedentary third class, the second sedentary, second sleeping and suite. The price, in dollar equivalent, is from one to five per hundred kilometers of the way.
If you decide to take advantage of such a kind of transport, then tickets that are sold only at the cash desks should be purchased in advance, since they may not be available on the day of departure.
During long-distance follows, you can eat in a restaurant car. Of course it is not compared with our analogues, on long-distance trains, but you will not have to die with hunger.
Bus service in this country is the most massive and used. In addition to ordinary flight and small minibuses departing in all directions, there are tourist, running between large cities. The price of travel on them is higher, but comfort and convenience is significantly different from those who enjoy local residents.
Tourists who make independent travels most often enjoy companies Dar Express
or Royal and Akamba Bus . These companies have their own tickets for the sale of tickets, and on bus stations individual cash regions. Welcome tourist agencies can help in the purchase of tickets. By the way, some companies have their own Internet sites on which you can learn about routes and departures in US dollars.
Among other things, the marine message is developed in Tanzania. First of all, between the mainland and Zanzibar, as well as the island of Pemba. From Dar Es Salam to Zanzibara and back, four flights are sent daily to make a company Azam Marine..
Cost, one can say such a walk is about thirty-five dollars. In addition to this company, Catamaran flights are raised to Zanzibar Sea Express.
and big catamaran Flying Horse..
Pemba island, the message is carried out only twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays. The fare will be in the seventy dollars. You can learn about more complete and detailed information on the websites of these companies.
About transport, I think enough. I will only add that the fare in urban transport is 0.25 dollars. At taxi prices are relatively low, and it is worth releasing and discuss the amount in advance.
Hotels in Tanzania have a wide variety of as comfort and price category.
It makes no sense to paint them, since this information can be found on their sites. There, on the site, there is a possibility of prior booking. I can only say that you can find a double room from thirty dollars.
Carefully cost hotels with pools. For a more favorable price, it is worth taking care of booking in advance. In addition to hotels, you can use the rental of villas, bungalows, apartments and other properties. When renting an apartment in the capital of the country, a period of a month and above, to really meet 250-400 dollars.
Now a little about food prices and products. Dinner of three dishes for two, in the middle restaurant will cost from ten to fifteen dollars, in an inexpensive cafe about three or four dollars per person. Bread bunch - 0.5 dollars, chicken breast costs 6-7 dollars kilogram, eggs (12 pieces) - two dollars, local beer 0.5 - one dollar, water in a bottle of 1.5 l. - Less dollar. Putu Malboro costs 2-3 dollars, gasoline is one dollar liter.
As you can see, Prices in Tanzania are quite acceptable. The only thing confuses this flight to the country itself, which is not very cheap. If you take advantage of the katari airlines, you can fly from Moscow to Tanzania and back, less than five hundred dollars. Some use charter flights that are even cheaper. By the way, from German Frankfurt on Main, there are many charter flights to African countries.
By summing up the foregoing, with approximate prices, it will turn out to be a general idea of how much finance will need to make such an individual travel.
