Electricity in Tanzania

All of our 4×4 Safari vehicles are equipped with inverters, providing you with 230V to charge your phones and cameras during safaris. Lodges and hotels offer electricity when not on safari. However, electricity is unreliable at best and can sometimes even be dangerous to your equipment. On our page about Electricity in Tanzania we give more information on how to charge your electrical equipment without problems.
