Zanzibar Beach & Cultural Experiences
Zanzibar is a tropical archipelago off the coast of Tanzania, offering the perfect beach complement to an East African safari. With its white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and rich cultural heritage, Zanzibar provides an idyllic setting for relaxation and exploration.
Stone Town, Zanzibar's historic center, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with narrow winding streets, ancient buildings, and a fascinating blend of Arab, Persian, Indian, and European influences. Explore the former slave market, the House of Wonders, and the bustling Darajani Market to immerse yourself in Zanzibar's complex history.
The island's coastline is dotted with beautiful beaches offering a range of experiences from the popular northern beaches of Nungwi and Kendwa to the more secluded eastern shores of Paje and Jambiani. Zanzibar is also famous for its spice farms, where you can learn about the island's history as a major spice trading post and sample fresh cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla.
