We are thankful that Tanzania has been more fortunate than most countries regarding Covid 19. But since we accepting tourists from all over the world, the government is taking measures to insure the safety of all tourists and Tanzanian citizens. Since travel restrictions vary according to your country and which airlines you are flying, the best source will be your airlines regarding requirements to travel.There will be basic health screening done at the airport on arrival. We request that all clients have medical and evacuation insurance or sign a waiver accepting these costs should they be necessary. From our end, there are several safety measures that will be put into place to keep you safe. There is a position that has been created on Gladys Adventure staff in charge of your health and safety related issues. The country has put into place health facilities and evacuation means designated specifically for tourists. We have created a webpage Health & Safety dedicated to keeping you updated about what to expect during your stay and to answer your questions.
