  • Prices in TZS; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Traffic in Dar es Salaam can be heavy, especially during morning and evening rush hours. Journey times may double during peak periods.
  • Dala-dalas do not stop directly at the airport terminal; passengers must walk to the main road (Nyerere Road) to catch one.
  • Airport taxis operate from designated stands outside the arrivals hall with fixed fares displayed.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
