Practical Resources for Planning Your Safari

A few practical basics make the run-up to your safari much smoother. This page collects the essentials we get asked about most.

Visas & entry

Most nationalities can obtain a Tanzania e-visa online before travel or on arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport — apply at least two weeks ahead.

What to pack

Neutral-coloured clothing, layers for cold mornings, a wide-brim hat, binoculars and a dust-proof camera bag cover most of what you'll need.

Money & connectivity

US dollars and Tanzanian shillings are both used; most lodges accept cards. Wi-Fi may be available at some lodges but is patchy or absent inside the parks.

Getting there

Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) is the main gateway for Northern Circuit safaris, roughly 45 minutes from Arusha.
