⚠️ Wichtige Reisetipps Tanzania
Pack for Freezing Mornings
The Ngorongoro Crater rim sits at 2,300m (7,500ft) altitude. In June and July, early mornings can drop to 5°C (41°F). Bring a thick fleece, a beanie, and a windbreaker.
Avoid Blue and Black
Tsetse flies (which have a nasty, painful bite) are highly attracted to dark blue and black clothing. Stick to neutral colors like khaki, tan, and olive green.
Bring US Dollars
Most lodges quote and accept USD. Ensure all your bills were printed after 2009 and have no tears or markings, or local banks will reject them.
Soft Duffel Bags
If you are taking a light aircraft (bush flight) between parks or to Zanzibar, you must pack in a soft-sided duffel bag. Hard suitcases will be left on the tarmac.
🛡️ Empfohlene Reiseversicherung
