Arusha Travel Forum

Do I need to book my flight to Zanzibar early or is it ok to wait until the day before I go? I want to remain flexible if it is possible.

Anyone know the going rate this summer for one way flight to Zanzibar.

I am also interseted in any good tips for Arusha. I am interested in going to the Rwanda War tribunal. What is the best time of day to go? is it worth going too? Also interested in cultural village tours but not villages set up for tourists. Are there any budget ones?

Also, what hotel do you recommend? I am staying at the Impala for my first night in Arusha but it lacks charm. What nice, $50-80 per day hotels can you recommend? I want good location, safe and airconditioning if possible. I am past my party all night days/nights and dont want to stay in a loud, crazy hotel - I prefer charming, non chain hotels.

I am open to any recommendations for restaurants, things to see, etc.

Thanks in advance - please feel free to email me directly at sarah@ayurveda.com

To get the airfare do a search for precision air,we flew with them in 2002 they were great.It was approx $120 I think one way from Arusha in 2002,but they do have a website,just do a search.

go to shade tours

Hi
It will depend on the time of year, in high season you could well find that all flights are booked out.
You can visit the tribunal, it would depend on what trials are being conducted for the time of days.
Try the www.habari.co.tz/ilborulodge for a nice place to stay.
