Tanzania - Communication & Internet
Telephone and Fax
Tanzania has a well-developed communications system for both domestic and international services. Microwave relays provide direct dialing countrywide. Direct overseas dialing is possible from most major centers and increasingly from remote places such as game lodges. Fax services are widely available from hotels and principal post offices. Game lodges, which do not have direct telephone facilities, can be connected by radio-telephone to both the national and international service. Most lodges also have a daylight direct radio link with their Arusha or Dar es Salaam offices and messages can be transmitted in that way.

Mobile phones can be rented at specific agents in Dar es Salaam and Arusha. Please talk to our office in Tanzania for assistance or let us know of your renting request. Tanzania uses the GSM network for mobile phones.
Mail
Mail service from Tanzania is fair, taking five to twelve days to reach Europe, Asia, Middle East and North America. Telegram services are also available from post offices.

Internet
Internet and e-mail services are available in all major towns and increasingly in smaller ones. Most hotels that AfricanMecca promotes have business centers that include e-mail, and Internet access. Some lodges and camps have Internet access too. Internet Cafes are available in major towns and cities.
