Homepage / FAQs
ALL TRAVELERSYou should be up to date on routine vaccinations while traveling to any destination. Some vaccines may also be required for travel. | |
| Routine vaccines | Make sure you are up-to-date on routine vaccines before every trip. These vaccines include measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine, varicella (chickenpox) vaccine, polio vaccine, and your yearly flu shot. |
MOST TRAVELERSGet travel vaccines and medicines because there is a risk of these diseases in the country you are visiting. | |
| Hepatitis A | CDC recommends this vaccine because you can get hepatitis A through contaminated food or water in Tanzania, regardless of where you are eating or staying. |
| Typhoid | You can get typhoid through contaminated food or water in Tanzania. CDC recommends this vaccine for most travelers, especially if you are staying with friends or relatives, visiting smaller cities or rural areas, or if you are an adventurous eater. |
SOME TRAVELERSAsk your doctor what vaccines and medicines you need based on where you are going, how long you are staying, what you will be doing, and if you are traveling from a country other than the US. | |
| Cholera | CDC recommends this vaccine for adults who are traveling to areas of active cholera transmission. Cholera is found in most parts of Tanzania. Cholera is rare in travellers but can be severe. Certain factors may increase the risk of getting cholera or having severe disease (more information). Avoiding unsafe food and water and washing your hands can also prevent cholera. |
| Hepatitis B | You can get hepatitis B through sexual contact, contaminated needles, and blood products, so CDC recommends this vaccine if you might have sex with a new partner, get a tattoo or piercing, or have any medical procedures. |
| Malaria | Talk to your doctor about how to prevent malaria while traveling. You may need to take prescription medicine before, during, and after your trip to prevent malaria, especially if you are visiting low-altitude areas. See more detailed information about malaria in Tanzania. |
| Rabies | Rabies can be found in dogs, bats, and other mammals in Tanzania, so CDC recommends this vaccine for the following groups:· Travelers involved in outdoor and other activities (such as camping, hiking, biking, adventure travel, and caving) that put them at risk for animal bites. · People who will be working with or around animals (such as veterinarians, wildlife professionals, and researchers). · People who are taking long trips or moving to Tanzania · Children, because they tend to play with animals, might not report bites, and are more likely to have animal bites on their head and neck. |
| Yellow Fever | Health recommendation: CDC does not recommend yellow fever vaccine for most travellers to Tanzania. However, you might consider this vaccine if you are staying a long time or will be heavily exposed to mosquitoes.Country entry requirement: The government of Tanzania requires proof of yellow fever vaccination upon arrival if you are traveling from a country with risk of yellow fever (this does not include the US – see complete list: Countries with risk of yellow fever virus (YFV) transmission.) For more information on recommendations and requirements, see yellow fever recommendations and requirements for Tanzania. Your doctor can help you decide if this vaccine is right for you based on your travel plans. Note: Yellow fever vaccine availability in the United States is currently limited. If you need to be vaccinated before your trip, you may need to travel some distance and schedule your appointment well in advance. Find The Clinic Near You |
So before you go, you should know how much to tip in Tanzania.
Basic first aid kits are available at most Tanzania lodges and camps, but you should always have one with you whenever an emergency arise.
Your first aid kit should include mosquito repellent and malarial prophylactics, as well as your SPF preferred category sunscreen, antihistamine and an over-the-counter pain relieving medication, such as Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Panadol or Tylenol and a few protective bags can be included in your first aid kit for this purpose.
Bring larger lightweight cover bags for protecting your bagged camera and lenses too from dust and water where required e.g. canoeing or boating safari.
Other items for your first aid kit are antiseptic gel, anti-diarrhea medication, antacid tablets for indigestion, Band-Aids with antiseptic cream, prescription medications and spare eyeglasses even if you wear contact lenses.

Tourist lodges are full service facilities with private rooms or cottages with private bathroom and have restaurants and lounges. Some have swimming pools. Many lodges are architecturally stunning made with local materials and inspired by local designs and the environment. Some lodges can accommodate up to 200 guests.
Tented camps are permanent or semi-permanent camps sited in areas of excellent game viewing. These provide many of the comforts of a lodge within private spacious canvas tents on a solid permanent base with beds and private baths, and high-quality meals. Tented camps are more intimate than lodges as they generally accommodate 12 to 20 guests.
On a basic camping safari guests sleep in private tents in designated campsites in or near national parks. Our safari crew sets up the camp and prepares all the meals. Washroom facilities are basic and are shared with other guests.
