Kilimanjaro International Airport is your friendly and efficient starting point for connecting to destinations globally after exploring this great African attraction. As you prepare for departure, you will find the airport is well-run, despite its smaller size, offering a smooth experience for travellers flying from Kilimanjaro.
For transport to the airport, taxis and pre-arranged airport transfers via tour and safari operators are the most practical choice, as parking is extremely limited. Although bus links exist, they are often crowded and less suitable if you have significant luggage or are travelling with children. Always allow extra time for check-in and security procedures, especially during peak holiday periods, as security is tight.
Once through, you can relax in the Departures lounge. Facilities and amenities include ATMs and currency exchange services for your travel needs. Browse the selection of retail outlets offering local crafts and souvenirs, or visit the Duty Free shop for perfumes and luxury goods. Quick, on-the-go snacks and fast food are readily available at the relaxed restaurants. Wi-Fi access is also on offer in some parts of the airport for a fee, keeping you connected before you board your flight.
Ankara, the capital of Türkiye, is a vibrant metropolis where ancient history and modern flair meet. As the country's second-largest city, it serves as a political, commercial and cultural hub.
Start by exploring the iconic Ankara Castle. Perched on a hill, it features a unique blend of Roman and Ottoman history along with panoramic views of the modern skyline. To gain deeper cultural insight, visit the renowned Museum of Anatolian Civilizations, which houses priceless artefacts spanning millennia. You must see the monumental Anıtkabir, a profound national symbol and the mausoleum of the country's founder, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
Afterwards, enjoy the vibrant social scene in districts like Kızılay and the Hamamönü Historical District, boasting meticulously restored Ottoman architecture. Finish off your trip by admiring stunning 360-degree views from the top of the modern Atakule Tower.
