Travel information
Number of participants:
Maximum of 6 persons per vehicle, but multiple cars can be deployed. The group safari already has a guaranteed departure for two booked persons.

Visa
Voor reizen naar Tanzania dient u in het bezit te zijn van een geldig Nederlands paspoort welke nog minimaal 6 maanden geldig zijn na afgifte van het visum en op het moment van aankomst in het land.
U kunt dit visum voor vertrek uit Nederland aanvragen via de website www.visa.immigration.go.tz . Let op, er dienen nog voldoende lege pagina’s naast elkaar in het paspoort te zijn voor de benodigde stempels.
Indien u in het bezit bent van een andere Nationaliteit dan de Nederlandse dan even controleren bij het Consulaat of Ambassade van Tanzania in uw land. Afrika Online verzorgd geen visa.
Voor informatie kunt u terecht op de website van www.nederlandwereldwijd.nl/reisadvies/tanzania. Mocht men tijdens de reis niet over een geldig paspoort en/of de juiste reisdocumenten beschikken dan zijn de consequenties voor de persoon in kwestie voor eigen rekening. (wijzigingen onder voorbehoud)
Time difference
The time difference is 1 hour in the summer months, and 2 hours in the winter months.
Banks and finance
With the exception of Nairobi (from 09:00 to 15:00) and Jomo Kenyatta Airport (24 hours a day), banks in Kenya are generally only open on weekday mornings.
All major hotels and most lodges are licensed to exchange foreign currency and travellers' cheques. In Nairobi there are several cash machines (but please note that these do not always work).
Travellers cheques in US dollars, creditcards (VISA. Mastercard en Barclay) worden veelal geaccepteerd. American Express wordt niet geaccepteerd. Contant geld alleen in US dollars en in kleine coupures. De lokale geldeenheid is de Keniaanse shilling.
Health and Safety
The sun in Kenya is warmer and more intense than you can imagine. Even on a cloudy day, you can still get badly burnt. Therefore, a good sunscreen (at least factor 30) is essential, as is a good sun hat and sunglasses.
Drink plenty, but never from the tap; it's better to buy bottled water. Most hotels and lodges will provide drinking water in your room.
Hospitals and healthcare
If you have visited a country where yellow fever is prevalent before your visit to Kenya, vaccination against it is compulsory. There are small field hospitals dotted around Kenya.
Grotere ziekenhuizen zijn er alleen in Nairobi en Mombassa. Het is daarom ook belangrijk om ruim voor vertrek te informeren naar de aanbevolen vaccinaties en malariaprofylaxe. Ook is het verstandig om een kleine reisapotheek samen te stellen met o.a. imodium tegen diarree, ORS enz. (kijk ook even op www.gezondheidsnet.nl/reisapotheek.
The Flying Doctors Society of Africa offers temporary membership for tourists for a small fee. In return, “members” receive free air transport to a hospital or medical centre in the event of a serious accident or severe illness while on safari.
Malaria
de beste manier om malaria te voorkomen is er voor zorgen dat u niet wordt gebeten. Draag in de schemer (ochtend en avond) lange broeken en shirts met lange mouwen en gebruik het middel DEET op enkels, handen en nek. Daarnaast is het ten zeerste aan te bevelen een goede malaria profylaxe in te nemen. Informeer u hierover bij uw GGD.
Photography
In Kenya, it is prohibited to take photographs of the President, police, military personnel, prisons, and airports. If you wish to take photographs of the local population, it is advisable to ask for permission beforehand.
For you, it may be a cherished holiday memory, but many residents of Kenya are superstitious and do not want you to take photographs of them. Keep your camera in a zipped-up bag or container.
Transport
Transport during the trip is by 4x4 safari Landcruiser. Comfortable travel and excellent for game drives. If two people are booked on the relevant travel date, another, smaller type of car may be used.
