With its endless miles of white sands and clear turquoise-blue waters, the Zanzibar Archipelago is an ideal place to unwind.
It sits in the Indian Ocean just 15 miles off the coast of Tanzania.
You can spend your days swimming or snorkeling among coral reefs, sailing on a traditional dhow, or just absorbing the Swahili culture.
There is so much to see in Zanzibar. The country’s cultural history spans over 2000 years and it was once was a hub for the spice trade.
Walk through the cobbled winding alleyways in Stone Town, the Zanzibar capital and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Discover thriving spice markets and see piles of cinnamon, cloves, black pepper and nutmeg lying in the sun. A wander round the Old Fort and the unique shops makes for a lovely afternoon, and the street food you’ll find in abundance is delicious.
Zanzibar is without a doubt a tropical dream, ideal for getting away from it all, but also fascinating from a historical and cultural perspective, as well as being a top adventure and eco-tourism destination.
