Toronto to Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania - $891 CAD roundtrip including taxes | gateway to Zanzibar
16
February
SWISS and Air Canada have dropped the price of their flights from Toronto to Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania down to $891 CAD roundtrip including taxes.
They are battling it out with KLM, who has dropped the price of their flights to Tanzania down to $910 CAD roundtrip.
This is about 25% below the typical best roundtrip prices from Toronto to Dar Es Salaam.
Some dates also have just 1 stop each way. At least, according to the SWISS website. When you view these flights on other search engines, it appears that there are 2 stops on the way there, and 1 on the way home.
It costs about $35 to $50 USD to take the ferry from Dar Es Salaam to gorgeous Zanzibar (shown in the photo above).
On KLM, you can turn this into a '2-continents-in-1' trip, for about $15 more. Fly from Toronto to Amsterdam (non-stop), spend time in Europe, then fly from Amsterdam to Tanzania, spend time there, and fly back home to Toronto - all for just $925 CAD including taxes for all 3 flights. Instructions on how to do this are in the blog post below.
