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.
Madrid is Spain's energetic capital, a major centre of European culture, art, music and dance.
Discover the city's cosmopolitan vibe and rich artistic heritage. Madrid is famous for its world-class art collections, including the renowned "Museum Triangle" which houses some of the most important galleries in Europe. At the very heart of the city, Puerta del Sol is a bustling piazza and the central transport hub that hosts many public festivals throughout the year. The surrounding architecture showcases a superb blend of Moorish, Renaissance and Gothic influences. Be sure to explore the vast Palacio Real, or Royal Palace, which, while the official residence of the King, is now mainly used for ceremonial duties. A tour through its magnificent galleries will give you a deeper understanding of centuries of Spanish history.
