Executive Summary

Sep 2019
Unique experiences contribute to continued growth by all measures

Growth in tourism continued in Tanzania in 2019, with increases in inbound arrivals, outbound departures and domestic tourism, as well as travel, lodging and attractions. This growth was despite higher charges for tourists from 2016.

Lack of trust leads to low and slow growth in share of online sales

Most Tanzanians still do not trust online booking of tourism products, and prefer personal contact in travel agencies. Airlines and hotels accounted for the highest actual online sales in 2019.

Tanzania Air expands it operations, offering more tourism opportunities

The purchase of two Airbus A220-300 aircraft by the government for its national flag carrier, Air Tanzania, is expected to lead to the opening up of new air routes. It was the first African carrier to take delivery of this aircraft.

Marketing Tanzania as a conference destination

Tanzania’s tourism industry relies mostly on wildlife, beaches, historical sites and scenery. However, the government and other stakeholders in the industry are aiming to expand MICE tourism to give a further boost to arrivals and the amount spent in the country.

Continued growth, but infrastructure improvements would yield a better performance

Key players in Tanzania’s tourism and hospitality industry, in cooperation with the country’s national assembly, have agreed to work hand in hand to guarantee the industry the priority it needs to continue driving the national economy. This is expected to continue to increase tourism in the country by all measures in the forecast period.
