Tanzania Meeting, Incentives, Conferences & Exhibitions Information
Conference programs can be well arranged in Tanzania, and groups want to take advantage of the full range of facilities local hotels have to offer - and tour the country's spectacular sites once their work is done. From Serengeti safaris to days spent lounging on a Zanzibar beach, conference incentives take on a whole new meaning in Tanzania, which offers the best facilities for work, and world-class destinations for play.
Luxury hotels in both Dar es Salaam and Arusha offer state-of-the-art facilities in central locations. Conference facilities are available at all of the major hotels, with special bookings and tour packages available all year round. NGO's and special interest groups from Tanzania, East Africa and around the world have chosen to host conferences in Tanzania, both to offer their conference-goers a special experience in unique surroundings, and to take advantage of the tour packages and safari options the country has to offer. Annual conferences for U.N. branches, Pan-African business organizations and special interest groups attract a growing number of delegates from East Africa every year.
In Tanzania's commercial center of Dar es Salaam, most hotels are located in the business district of the city and on the waterfront nearby. Palm trees and lush gardens are an important part of their design and make the general environment one of quiet peace and tropical tranquility. Conference equipment from whiteboards to data projectors, plus reliable computer and Internet access are widely available. Most hotels will specially cater for a conference group, and meals on the Indian Ocean coast incorporate the freshest fish and seafood with crisp highland produce from the Usambara Mountains. Snacks, tea breaks and special surprises are all worked into your specially-planned schedule.
In northern Tanzania, the town of Arusha boasts a number of high-quality hotels in the commercial area, all shaded by stately trees and with expansive views of nearby Mount Meru. On-site conference facilities cater for large and small groups, with most hotels reserving special facilities for conference groups. Conference coordinators, who work onsite to make sure everything goes smoothly, are becoming a popular option in the leading hotels. For large functions, the Arusha International Conference Centre is centrally located in the city center. With facilities for delegates numbering in the thousands, the AICC is currently hosting the United National Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and other high-profile international conferences. In any conference, breaks are an important part of keeping people on track, and Tanzania's conference facilities offer everything from traditional entertainment to special team-building adventures. Day excursions to local markets and workshops offer shopping opportunities for colleagues, family, and friends back home. And if the delegates want a change of scene, both Arusha and Dar es Salaam have a wide range of local restaurants and evening spots where they can sample the best in international cuisine, dine on the waterfront or sample regional specialties looking out towards Kilimanjaro.
Of course, incentives are always part of a conference package, and here Tanzania truly outshines the rest. Our conference coordinators provide an option of incentive packages to suit every itinerary and schedule. Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti are right on Arusha's doorstep, and short safari packages for small or large groups are an essential part of conference hosting in northern Tanzania. In Dar es Salaam, day trips to the beaches and ruins of Bagamoyo, short safaris to Mikumi National Park, and longer trips to Zanzibar ensure delegates see the very best the country has to offer. Whether it's a high-profile international event, an annual board meeting, or an NGO workshop, host your next conference in Tanzania. Whether at premier facilities on the Indian Ocean or overlooking the striking crater of Mount Meru, the event will be truly memorable and truly Tanzania.
