Book your transport back before the match. Agree the fare and a meeting point with your driver.

Bring your passport or ID, a charged phone, and some cash or mobile money for food and transport.
Sun, water and layers
Afternoons in Arusha can be hot and evenings cool. Bring water, a hat and a light jacket.
