The Tanzania Government has assured visitors intending to visit destination Tanzania from all over the world that Tanzania is a safe destination as the government has intensified security for visitors against incidents of kidnapping that has been reported to take place in the coast of neighboring country of Kenya.

Speaking at the press conference held at Peacock Hotel in Dar es Salaam recently, the Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism Hon. Ezekiel Maige said the Security institutions in the country were working closely with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism to keep Tanzania territorial waters as well as the hinterland secure.

He said the incidents, which happened far from the country’s territorial boarders, should not be cause for panic or cancellation of Travel plans to Tanzania. “We would like to ensure our esteemed visitors intending to travel to Tanzania that this is one of Africa’s safest and enjoyable destination and we have intensified security measured to ensure that everybody is safe” he said.

There have been two kidnapping incidents that happened recently in Kenya, which has led to a growing concern about the safety and security of visitors to the East Coast of Africa that accompanied with several travel warnings pointing at East Africa including Tanzania.]]> admin Thu, 13 Oct 2011 07:40:08 -0500
