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.
Beirut is a captivating Mediterranean city that successfully blends its ancient history with a powerful modern vitality.
You will quickly discover why this vibrant Lebanese capital, often called the ‘Paris of the Middle East,’ is celebrated for its unique character. Explore the fashionable Verdun shopping district or enjoy the relaxed atmosphere along the seafront in Ain El Mraiseh. History surrounds you; the city’s suburbs are dotted with fascinating remnants of the Hellenistic, Roman and Ottoman eras, showcasing Beirut’s deep cultural foundations.
Venture beyond the city limits to discover natural wonders like the magnificent Jeita Grotto, a stunning labyrinth of crystallised caves just north of the city. Back in the Downtown district, the iconic Place de l'Etoile Nejmeh Square forms the spiritual core of the capital. For a quieter moment, find one of the city's abundant green parks, which frequently host open-air festivals and cultural shows throughout the year. No visit is complete without experiencing the breathtaking view of the Mediterranean sunset over the striking Pigeon Rocks.
