This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.
From start to finish the process of selecting, confirming, processing of payment, timely travel docs, check-in experience was absolutely flawless! I will be using Alternative Airlines every time I travel!
Alternative Airlines made what would have been an otherwise difficult situation much easier to manage. Thank you, Alternative Airlines.
It was my first time using Alternative Airlines and it was one of the best experiences I had in booking my flights. The process was easy and the flight options were clearly laid out.
The support I received was stellar - response time was so quick and I love how they have a WhatsApp option for chatting.
So easy to use and the payment options are very helpful when you need to book a ticket and you may not have the full amount at the moment. Really recommend Alternative Airlines to my clients and friends.
Very easy to use. Helped me to plan my trip to Vancouver and the payment plan made things way easier and stress-free. Would use them again for sure.
I’ve used Alternative Airlines three times already, and each experience has been AWESOME! Their “Buy Now, Pay Later” options are such a game-changer.
My journey with Alternative Airlines was nothing short of excellent. Their commitment to providing a stress-free booking experience and diverse payment solutions has earned them my trust and loyalty.
This was a very simple and affordable way to book such a big trip! I love the way they show you the breakdown of what you are actually paying and your payment schedule. I highly recommend this!
What a great way to be able to see my family back in South Africa. This is made possible since we can buy our tickets and pay it off over 4 months. With the price of flight tickets so high Alternative Airlines has been a literal lifesaver!
I have been using Alternative Airlines for the past 4 years and have never had a poor experience. Destinations are unlimited with a variety of options available for inflight upgrades.

About Tanzania
Tanzania is a jewel for wildlife and vast wild areas. It has the highest percentage of land in an African country under protection, while 40% of Tanzania is set aside for wildlife and conservation. Tanzania boasts the tallest mountain (Kilimanjaro) in Africa, the largest and deepest lakes; Lake Victoria and Tanganyika along with the second deepest lake in the world - Lake Tanganyika. Serengeti National Park hosts the largest migration of wildlife known; around a million wildebeest migrate around the Serengeti ecosystem following the rain.
Tanzania's biodiversity is so great that it ranks among the top ten countries in the world. It is home to 1100 species of breeding birds. This compares with 800 in all of southern Africa.
An ancient home to early man - Olduvai Gorge bears the evidence that ancient hominids lived here over three million years ago and is often referred to as the "Cradle of Mankind."
These are a few among the many amazing facts and features in Tanzania. It is largely unspoilt and sparsely populated in many areas. Not only is the wilderness special, but Tanzania has miles of pristine beaches, including those on exotic islands like Zanzibar, Mafia and Pemba.
Planning a trip around Tanzania is not difficult. The international airport of Kilimanjaro provides easy access from Europe and the rest of the world. Nearby to the west of Kilimanjaro Airport, the lively, bustling town of Arusha has become the gateway to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Regional Air flies from Arusha daily and we would be delighted to assist you on your journey to discover the beauty and friendliness of Tanzania.
