After months of haggling over cross-border tourism operations, the Government has, with immediate effect, barred Tanzanian registered tour vans from operating in the country altogether.
“This means that from today, February 6, 2015, Tanzanian registered tour vans will not be allowed to pick, drop or exchange passengers at all tourism sites, airstrips and airports including Jomo Kenyatta International Airport,” said East African Affairs, Commerce and Tourism Cabinet Secretary, Phyllis Kandie, in a terse statement to newsrooms yesterday.
