The Safety of our Guests is our Top Priority
Hosting Guests in the time of Covid-19
We already pride ourselves on delivering the highest level of guest safety, comfort, and overall satisfaction. During this time, as the world fights to recover from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and travelers regain confidence to embark on new adventures, we are making sure all precautions are taken and best practices are followed for guests to, once again, come along with us.
As Tanzania welcomes visitors and the tourism industry is reinvigorated, The Tanzanian Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism has published a set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) that all travel and tourism entities are expected to follow.
