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.

Washington D.C. is the epicentre of American history and government, offering a wealth of iconic monuments and world-class museums. This powerful capital city is the heart of the U.S., inviting you to explore its vast cultural and political landscape. You can easily discover the city's key sights along the expansive National Mall, 'America's Front Lawn', which stretches from the U.S. Capitol Building to the dignified Lincoln Memorial. The 59-hectare space is lined with the numerous, free-to-enter Smithsonian museums, which house phenomenal collections. You should visit the National Air and Space Museum to chronicle the history of flight, or journey through the vast array of specimens at the National Museum of Natural History.

Along the Mall, you will find the towering Washington Monument, a 555-foot obelisk honouring the nation's first president. Take time to reflect at the stirring war memorials, including the World War II Memorial, the Korean War Veterans Memorial and the poignant Vietnam Veterans Memorial. For political landmarks, view the White House, the official home of the President, and the majestic U.S. Capitol Building, home to Congress. The city’s distinct, beautiful architecture blends historic buildings with modern infrastructure, creating a truly unique metropolis. For a memorable experience, visiting the Tidal Basin, particularly during the beautiful annual cherry blossom season, is highly recommended. You can also explore the captivating and interactive exhibits at the popular International Spy Museum.
