Review №1

Crossing was easy and smooth. Three ferries were all working making good time. Unfortunately one is prohibited from taking photos- this seems incomprehensible as there is no such prohibition on ferry services to Zanzibar. Perhaps the authorities will review the position in this day and age of social media and tourism

The services provided at the office are of high quality and excellent to the maximum. And it makes sure that every citizen gets his/her ticket without any contradictions and without any favours for either high standard living people or low standard living people. All citizen gets equal services in a friendly environment.

It is a public ticket. Very efficient in terms of dispensing ticket. The main challenge is network for validation of tickets. Sometimes you might find only few outlet are working hence causing unnecessary queue.

Despite all the horror stories others have posted. My experience went smoothly. Definitely get the VIP ticket. It’s worth the extra $15!

Modifications are being made, which will lead to improved services soon. Many scanning machines have been installed, soon as they start to work, it will save time for passengers.

The procedures are easy if you need to cross to Kigamboni. You will pay only Tsh 200 which is like 0.086 United States Dollar. If you like Fish, At Ferry areas you will find fresh and fried fish at very reasonable prices. Subscribe to my Youtube Channel (EDFIXER) to learn more about Dar Es Salaam/Tanzania 🇹🇿

We waited in the que for the tickets not even 5 minutes. Processing is done fast and professional. Going to Kigamboni the Ferry was crowded but we still found a seat. Going back was even better. On the Ferry you can buy snacks like peanuts or chocolate, toys, ice cream. The price was 200 tzs which is just incredible 0,08€. I have no pictures to show because its not permitted, dont even try

The ferry tickets office are so good and organized. I went to Zanzibar past week meanwhile locals pay around $12 USD and non residents has classes were Royal Class pays USD 60$ VIP Class pays USD 50$ and economic class pays USD 35$ for one way. It takes 2hours from Dar to Zanzibar.

First of all taking picture is not allowed there, mostly at least 1000 person exist in one place waiting for moving to other side.It is economic and can save you about half an hour then going through bridge.

Review №25

I have been to the Ferry Ticket Office a couple of times, and I think activities go smoothly in the area. Despite the large crowd of people waiting to board the Ferry, the whole process of issuing tickets seems to go at an optimum pace. I have never seen a long, slow queue—at least not during the times Ive been there. In that aspect alone, I think Im impressed.However, theres room for improvement in other areas; for instance, the area is not very clean at times. The scent also gets pungent—which is inevitable due to the Fish Market around the area.Overall, Kigamboni is a nice place. Theres just so much to explore. It has an economically diverse population, which I think can teach us a lot about life. Whether youd use a Ferry or the Kigamboni bridge, Kigamboni is the home to adventures.

The Kigamboni Ferry which crosses every 15 mins. There are 3 ferries working at once. The MV Kazi, MV Kigamboni and the MV Magogoni. Think its 300 shs if you cross by foot or bike and 500 shs pee vehicle.

No combined tickets for transportation & passengers. Separate tickets need to be taken. Secondly you have to walk some distance while boarding and alighting as you are not allowed to sit in your vehicle even after taking separate tickets.
