Why Travel to Zanzibar Island? by

The Zanzibar Archipelago is a group of small islands lying off the coast of Tanzania in the Indian Ocean, known for its white sandy beaches, exotic spices and rich history. Zanzibar with its idyllic beaches and fascinating culture is a popular holiday destination consisting of two main islands: Unguja and Pemba.

Zanzibar’s Stone Town – the Cultural & Historic Highlight

The rich history of Zanzibar owes its role as one of the major bases for explorations of the new territories in East Africa. This rich cultural heritage along with its pristine beaches and exotic spices is what makes Zanzibar a top travel destination.

Most of our Zanzibar safaris visit the island of Unguja, where Zanzibar City and its old quarter, Stone Town, are located. The ancient Stone Town is a World Heritage Site for its cultural and historical value making it the cultural highlight of Zanzibar.

In Stone Town, you can see the blend of African and Arabic cultural influences that have shaped Zanzibar today. This ancient quarter consists of a network of winding alleyways featuring unique old buildings, lively bazaars, Arabic-style shops and mosques. The markets of Zanzibar's capital, are also worth visiting to experience the bustle of trading and the enticing aroma of spices.

Zanzibar Beaches & Activities

Zanzibar features palm-fringed, sandy white beaches that stretch on for miles, ideal for spending lazy days relaxing at the water’s edge or swimming in the tropical waters. Snorkelling and diving are popular activities in Zanzibar, reputed to offer some of the best diving in the world. The colourful coral reefs, variety of fish and rich marine life draw divers to explore the gentle waters.

In addition to scuba diving and snorkelling, Zanzibar offers activities such as deep-sea fishing, kayaking, windsurfing, waterskiing and sailing on traditional dhows. Zanzibar has a variety of restaurants to choose from, offering fresh seafood, with crayfish being a popular speciality. At the seafront market, visitors can enjoy inexpensive yet delicious seafood whilst mingling with the locals of Zanzibar. Zanzibar Island is also known for the endangered red colobus monkeys found here. This endangered primate has been adopted as the flagship species for conservation in Zanzibar.

Zanzibar Day Tours & Excursions

There are various day tours in Zanzibar, including:

  • An excursion to one of the spice plantations Zanzibar Island is famous for.
  • An outing to the pristine beaches of Prison Island, inhabited by giant tortoises. 
  • A full day of scuba diving in Nungwe.
  • A trip to swim with the dolphins at Kizimkazi.
  • The Spice Tour of Stone Town and the House of Wonders.
  • A fishing trip on a traditional dhow 
  • A sunset cruise on an Arabian dhow.
  • An excursion to Jozani Forest.
