The very name Zanzibar conjures up exotic and romantic images. There are two main islands making up Zanzibar : Unguja and Pemba. Zanzibar Town is on Unguja Island, which is generally referred to as "Zanzibar".

A jewel in tranquil coral waters of the Indian Ocean, Zanzibar is one of the world's most beautiful islands. From the shores the great European explorers Burton, Speke and Livingstone set out on their voyages of
discovery into the hinterland.

The narrow streets of the old Stone Town are just some of the vived reminders of the island's long and colourful history. It's a fascinating place to wander around and get lost in.

A la Carte

In Zanzibar we recommend spending a couple of days in the old historic and pittoresque Stone Town, from where also all excursions depart. After that, you can relax a few days on the beach at the north or east coast.

The price of your stay in Zanzibar will depend on your choice of accommodation. Here is a selection of the best hotels and beach resorts in different price ranges.
