As we help plan your safari, we will also help you with suggestions on air travel (which is not included in our pricing). The best airport to fly in to is Kilimanjaro International Airport, serviced by Air Tanzania, Ethiopian Airlines and KLM, Royal Dutch Airlines. KLM flies in daily from Amsterdam.

You can also fly into Nairobi, a 4.5 hours drive from Arusha, which is serviced with several international flights every day.

The KLM flights to Kilimanjaro all arrive late in the evening requiring an overnight near the airport (often at our ranch, Ndarakwai). Nairobi flights tend to arrive early in the morning, allowing you to drive or fly into Tanzania on the same day you arrive.

British Airways, Lufthansa, Gulf Air, and Air Tanzania also fly to Dar es Salaam from various major cities in Europe and Africa. If your itinerary includes Zanzibar, one of these flights may work for you.
