Transport
We have arranged convenient transport options to ensure easy access to the congress venue. We will avail shuttle options for delegates who would prefer not to stay on the Mweka College campus but rather commute from the nearby Moshi town. This transport option is available for purchase during registration at $10 for a round trip.
For delegates arriving in Tanzania via Kilimanjaro International Airport, the ACCB 2024 organizing committee will offer a shuttle option to ferry them from the Kilimanjaro International Airport to Moshi or Mweka at $60 for a round-trip. You can purchase this shuttle during registration.
Meal plans
Participants can enjoy meals on the Mweka College campus and the surrounding area. Meals on the Mweka College campus are available as an optional item for purchase during registration. The meals will cost $18 per day, including breakfast and lunch (half board) and drinking water. If you choose to do this, you will need to buy all three days of the meal plan. We do not sell individual/daily lunch tickets. The ACCB 2024 will provide complimentary tea/coffee breaks in the morning and afternoon during the three congress days. For those who wish to explore dining options off-campus, meals are available at local eateries for approximately $5-$10 per meal.
We look forward to seeing you at ACCB 2024 and wish you a productive and enjoyable stay in Tanzania!
