Frequently asked questions

How much does a Dar es Salaam holiday package cost?
You'll find cheap prices on Expedia for your Dar es Salaam break. However, a range of factors like the hotel choice, length of stay and season will determine how much your holiday to Dar es Salaam costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Dar es Salaam?
March, April and June are great times to look for cheap Dar es Salaam holiday packages. Travelling in less busy months means you'll typically find better prices on accommodation and flights.
How many days is enough for Dar es Salaam?
Dar es Salaam holidays come in various shapes and sizes, but to get a real feel for this destination, we think 3 days is about right. This will mean you can fit in top sights like Kijiji Beach and Kipepeo Beach and track down some lesser-known spots. Don't forget to explore cool neighbourhoods such as Kivukoni and Masaki either. If you're smart with your time, you can even schedule a day trip outside of Dar es Salaam too.
Is it worth booking a holiday package to Dar es Salaam?
Whether you want to visit top sights like Tanzania National Stadium and Ilala Market on your Dar es Salaam holiday, or coming for its great culture, history and walking trails, there's something for everyone here. With so much to do, you'll quickly learn why so many people think Dar es Salaam is a good holiday destination.
How to find the best Dar es Salaam package deals?
Use Expedia's filters to find some unbeatable Dar es Salaam package deals. When you start your search, simply set your maximum budget and then sort the results by "Price: low to high." If you're looking to save, plan your trip for midweek, or browse for Dar es Salaam package deals in the off-season. Play around with your travel dates and you may land even bigger discounts. As a rule of thumb, it's usually best to lock in your holiday package as soon as possible.
Is it cheaper to book a Dar es Salaam holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to make your money go further. Bundle your car rental, hotel and flight into one great-value price and you could save hundreds of dollars. You'll generally land a better deal than booking each component separately. And you'll still enjoy the flexibility to create a tailored Dar es Salaam holiday by choosing your preferred type of stay, airline and car class.
When to book a holiday package to Dar es Salaam?
If you've got your Dar es Salaam holiday dates locked in, book as soon as you can to grab some awesome deals. With Expedia, you can typically reserve some flights up to a year in advance. Prefer spur-of-the-moment adventures? Our last-minute deals are ideal for setting off on a whim.
