| WELCOME |
A
magical destination, Zanzibar offers the visitor a mix of
stunning scenery and beautiful beaches, unique culture and
an intriguing past. A cosmopolitan population made up from
a multitude of cultures make this a distinctive destination,
where tolerant Islamic traditions remain important and the
pace of life is slow. Zanzibar's
long history of seafarers, merchants, travellers and slaves
makes this a truly different destination. |
| |
| WHAT
TO DO |
Unique
forest reserves and spice plantations make up much of the interior,
while Stone Town, the Island's capital, offers an intriguing
past shown in its varied architecture and hypnotic atmosphere.
Relatively
new to tourism, the charm of these enchanting islands shines
through, and the famous Zanzibari hospitality is extended to
all who embrace the culture and traditional values of the destination.
|
| WHERE
TO STAY |
Stone
Town has some unique properties that have been converted from
old residences and palaces. On the beaches, resorts offer Zanzibari
style accommodation and warm, friendly service. Standards overall
tend to be good and relaxed. |
| HOLIDAY
IDEAS |
Follow
a safari in Kenya or Tanzania with a beach break in Zanzibar,
or just head straight to the beach from the UK. Flights are
daily, so most durations are possible! |
GETTING
THERE |
Zanzibar is reached
from Nairobi in Kenya or Arusha in Tanzania, making is ideal
to combine with a safari holiday. Alternatively, for a beach-only
holiday, connections are available from Heathrow via Nairobi,
with regional connections in the UK also possible. Flight connections
in Nairobi tend to involve some waiting time. |
