Turquoise Waters, Spice Island Culture & Perfect Safari Extension
Zanzibar is the perfect finale to a Tanzania safari. This semi-autonomous archipelago off the Swahili Coast combines turquoise Indian Ocean waters, powder-white beaches, vibrant coral reefs, and a rich cultural heritage shaped by Arab, Persian, Indian, and African influences.
Stone Town — Zanzibar's atmospheric old capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is a maze of narrow streets, ornate carved doors, and spice markets. Beyond the town, pristine beaches rim the island while vibrant coral reefs offer world-class snorkelling and diving. Swim with whale sharks from October to March, visit a spice farm, or simply unwind after days of game driving.
From iconic wildlife encounters to unforgettable cultural experiences.
