Thanks dagga_boy! But someone told us the ferry is in dry dock for maintenance since February... so not sure if the webpage is up to date.

I traveled on MV Victoria in 2013 and really enjoyed it. Still have Tz friends in Mwanza I will ask them for updates

Sounds good, would be great if you had up to date information!

Hi just got the msg back from my friend, he says that MV Victoria is off for maintenance work but that MV Serengeti is running. Just need to check with him that his goes to Bukoba !

there are buses going from Bukoba to Mwanza which take less time and cost less.

Yes the Seregeti goes to Bukoba, it is replacing the Victoria for the time being.
I agree that the bus is cheaper and quicker but travel on these great old ferrys is a wonderful experience and a lot more comfortable!

Yeah I totally agree - we'll take the ferry! Is it safe or do we need to take life-jackets? :)
