THE RISING OF PARK FEES: We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this news letter, In some of the parks like Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Manyara and Arusha National Park the fees have not changed. Fees have only risen in Kilimanjaro, the Crater and Serengeti National Park. This has resulted to remaining of the same fees to some of the parks like Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Manyara and Arusha National Parks. So the fees has only risen in Kilimanjaro, Crater fees and Serengeti. We also appreciate the efforts of those who sent their views direct to TANAPA and NCAA. Our special thanks to  the Tanzania Association of Tour Operator (TATO).
