FAQs AND TIPS

 

VISA, INSURANCE, VACCINATION & PASSPORT REQUIREMENTS

Most visitors to Tanzania (including Zanzibar) need a visa — either an e-Visa (recommended) or a Visa on Arrival. The cost is usually USD 50 for a single-entry tourist visa (USD 100 for US passport holders). Your passport must be valid for at least six months after arrival and have at least one blank page.
As of October 1, 2024, Zanzibar requires all visitors to purchase Mandatory Inbound Travel Insurance from the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation (USD 44 per person, valid for up to 92 days).
For yellow fever vaccination, please check the requirements for your country, as a certificate is mandatory if arriving from certain destinations.

 

AIRPORT SHUTTLES

We don't organize airport shuttles, so we recommend taking a taxi from the airport to your accommodation. Before the event, we'll share taxi driver contacts with ticket holders and create a communication channel for all attendees to connect and arrange transfers together.

 

TAXI
There are plenty of car taxis, tuktuks and motorcycle taxis (called boda boda) available for travel between venues and accommodations. We'll share taxi driver contacts with ticket holders before the event.

 

MOBILE INTERNET IN ZANZIBAR

Apps offering eSIM options, like Airalo, don't work well in Zanzibar. However, mobile internet with a regular SIM card works fine, so we recommend getting a local SIM card, which is also the most affordable option.
Most accommodations offer free Wi-Fi, and many beachfront bars and restaurants provide reliable connections and welcome digital nomads.
If you're planning a workation, this is a great place to consider — the time zone is only 2 hours ahead of most of Europe.

 

WHATSAPP GROUP

We will set up a WhatsApp group for event communication and for attendees to connect, share airport shuttles, taxis, accommodations, or simply chat. Ticket holders will be informed about the group info through email.

 

TICKETS TERMS & CONDITIONS

Tickets are non-refundable, except in the event of cancellation.
As we get closer to the event, we will launch a resale platform where you can safely resell your ticket if you're unable to attend.
