Tourist visas for Tanzania can be obtained in two ways: when you arrive at the international airport during your transfer from Kigali to Seronera - you will be traveling through Mwanza, which should be selected on your online visa application under port of entry - or online prior to your arrival. The visa cost is $100 regardless of doing it online or in country. If getting the visa in country, you will be guided to the appropriate counter upon arrival to the airport. IMPORTANT: You will need to bring a new, unmarked $100 bill for this purchase. Below is guidance for applying for the visa online. The online visa application process for Rwanda is very straightforward, costs $50, and can be done at THIS LINK. Online TZ Visa Application: There are a lot of third-party online services that you should avoid. HERE is the website you should use, and Kindred Safaris will set up a call with you to help with the process.

Kindred Safaris recommends that all travelers consult with their physician(s) and your local health department regarding suggested vaccinations. Health Information for Tanzania Health Information for Rwanda

As with vaccinations, please consult your physician(s) regarding medications, as every individuals health needs are different. Below is some general information to consider when consulting with your physician, which is based on our experience. • Malaria medication: Atovaquone-Proguanil 250-100 has been tolerated well. This medication and dose is good for shorter trips (e.g., less than 30 days), as you only have to start 1 day in advance of arrival and can stop the medication after 7 days of return. There is a high-dose form that some travelers complain of stomach issues. • Travelers Diarrhea: All travelers should consider remedies for travelers diarrhea. Consider over the counter medications for general digestive tract changes. Prescription antibiotics may also be considered.

Go Farther Travel & Whole Image Wellness value "all-in" pricing, so we have already included most gratuities in the cost of your trip package. All driver guides, lodges, rangers, and trackers will be tipped on your behalf, with no further out of pocket expense required from you. However, there are a few circumstances where you will be responsible for your own gratuities and expenses, as follows: + Porterage in Tanzania: There will be various people at lodges helping with getting luggage of the vehicles, so just like in the States, we typically tip $1-$2 per traveler on each occurrence. A good estimate would be a maximum of $30 per traveler for the entire trip. + Porterage in Rwanda: $10 per person that will be shared with each porter in your group. Although porters are not necessary, it is a source of income for locals. + Laundry Services: If you are planning to use the laundry services at the lodges (most have them), figure an average of $1-$2 per item for the service, and a tip of 10% of the total bill. Plan your laundering to occur on the first day of a multiple day stay. Your guides will help you coordinate. + Meals: Full board is included at all lodgings except the Serena Kigali in Rwanda. Therefore, you will need to purchase two dinners and two breakfasts during this portion of the trip. The menu at the hotel is à la carte so prices will vary. You may also have the opportunity to purchase lunch in Kigali on your final day (depending on your flight time). + Restaurant Gratuities: Where meals are included, tips are not necessary nor expected. When you are purchasing your own meals at luxury hotels, a 10% service charge may be added to your bill. If one has not been added, 10% gratuity is customary. + In mid-range restaurants in Rwanda, 5-10% is appreciated, preferably in the local currency. + If dining on your own before or after your trip in Tanzania, tipping is not expected, but rounding up the bill is always appreciated. This typically comes to 3-5%. Our rule of thumb for travel to destinations around the world is to carry $150 cash per person, per week. Although the USD is widely used and accepted in Tanzania (and to some extent, Rwanda as well), Go Farther Travel recommends that you pay with the local currency whenever possible, and which can be obtained from an ATM at the airport for the best exchange rates. But don't worry, we'll go over all of this in detail before the trip! Regarding credit cards, we have never had a problem using our Visa or MasterCard in Tanzania/Rwanda if you plan ahead with your bank. Credit cards (Visa and MC) can also be used for gifts purchases, etc. (American Express is rarely accepted, and if it is, there would be a 5% service charge applied.) The Tanzanian Schilling (TSh) and Rwandan Franc are the local currencies and trade at 2,300-to-$1 and 1,225-to-$1, respectively.

In short, we have had better cell coverage in Rwanda/Tanzania than many places in the States. Talk with your cell provider in advance for details (note: Verizon charges $12 per day for coverage). Good WiFi internet service is available at all lodges at no additional cost, although some lodges only have service in the lobby.

The two flights within Tanzania are included in the Tanzania-Only and Full Experience packages. International flights are not included in any package. In total, you will need to purchase 3 international flights if you are joining us for the Full Experience, or round-trip airfare from the United States if you are attending only one segment: Your flight from the USA to Tanzania (JRO).
