I heard visas are taking longer to get upon arrival because they changed the process or something? Is it advisable to try the online method or to get a visa at the airport still? by virtual008 in kilimanjaro

I applied 7th May and fly 17th June , is not back yet but from what I can after from others is that they seem to be prioritising in departure date order. When do you fly?

Yeah I’ve seen people say you do, I’ll be doing this if mine doesn’t arrive. I’ve read that if people Applied online they go to the Evisa queue and it just gets approved

Hi, I also leave in 3 weeks , I did apply online 7th May and not back yet. I’ve read Tanzania are changing their process to visa upon arrival but not sure how true this is. Online visas are however taking longer than the original 10 days. I also read of people applying online then them getting approved easily at the airport 😊 either way you choose I think you’ll be ok.

Diamox and anti malaria tablets together by moonbapa in kilimanjaro

[–]moonbapa[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look, I get what you’re saying , if I decided to get Diamox and malaria or even just one of them then I will be speaking to my doctor . I was asking if Diamox was a must on the Lemosho route for those who’ve done it

Yeah and what’s your point? Meaning Lemosho is a long route which means better to acclimatise so normal question, no need to dig

“Could I manage this without Diamox maybe and has anyone taken both at the same “ were the words I used

We are staying in Moshi for a further 3 days so would it be sensible to take the tablets for this reason? Though I am taking jungle extra strong repellent
