The Tanzanian people are renowned for their warm and welcoming nature, often extending genuine hospitality to tourists eager to explore their stunning landscapes, incredible wildlife, and diverse culture. We highly encourage you to interact with locals during your Tanzanian discovery – it’s an invaluable way to truly understand the heart and soul of the country.

Visa for Tanzania?

For most international travelers, a visa is required to enter Tanzania. You can conveniently apply for your visa online through the official Tanzanian government visa website [Insert the official Tanzania visa website link]. Please be aware that this is the only legitimate online portal for Tanzania visa applications.

Alternatively, tourist or business visas for a single entry can often be obtained upon arrival at Tanzania’s main ports of entry. These visas are typically valid for three months. You may be asked to present proof of your onward travel arrangements. The cost for a Tanzania visa on arrival is generally USD 50 per person, with a fee of USD 100 per person for US citizens.

When you plan your Tanzanian trip with Maridadi Travel, we provide comprehensive guidance through every step of the visa and other necessary administrative processes.
