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 vacation packages. Traveling in less busy months means you'll typically find better prices on accommodations and flights.
How many days is enough for Dar es Salaam?
Dar es Salaam vacations come in various shapes and sizes, but to get a real feel for this destination, we think 3 days is about right.
