Hi

I see that all the comments are from 2008. Can anybody help me regarding obtaining a Visa to go into Zanzibar. Is it still as easy as in 2008 or would you recommend to get in advance?

Thanks

Welcome to TA, JP. You are already way ahead of most people in that you searched the archives before posting your question. The reason you only saw very old posts is because the search results are automatically sorted by relevance. Next time you search, sort the results by date: www.tripadvisor.com/SearchForums… You'll see that the first threads are not relevant for you, but starting with the third and fourth ones, they are very recent and relevant.

Are you arriving in Zanzibar or one of the major airports like Dar?

I've never seen anyone post on here that they were refused a visa on entry.

If arriving at DAR you get Visa here and it's good for ZNZ. If arriving ZNZ first, you get Visa here and it's good for Tanzania mainland. Visa can be purchased at any official land or airport point of entry.
