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.

Experience the rich history and cultural diversity of Edinburgh, Scotland’s captivating capital city. There, you can immerse yourself in a place known for its imposing architecture and world-renowned festivals.

Edinburgh Castle is the dominant feature of the skyline, but exploring beneath its granite walls reveals museums and quaint alleyways. Take time to visit the beautiful Abbey and Palace of Holyroodhouse, which showcases an impressive art collection. For a peaceful afternoon, head over to the Royal Botanic Garden for a tranquil escape.

Make Edinburgh Castle a priority on your list of places to see; listen out for the daily noonday gun. Discover the Grassmarket area of the Old Town, filled with charming cafés, restaurants, and shops. You can get a unique panoramic view of the city from the Camera Obscura on Castle Hill.

Edinburgh also boasts excellent concert and theatre venues like the Edinburgh Playhouse and Festival Theatre. Before your trip concludes, try to visit Arthur’s Seat, an extinct volcano offering spectacular views just east of the city.
