Showcasing Zanzibar's Best Accommodations
A Gem by the Indian Ocean
Greetings from Kigali!

This month, we are featuring the beautiful island of Zanzibar, or "Unguja" as it is locally known. Located off the coast of Tanzania, Zanzibar showcases the very best of what the Indian Ocean has to offer. After a Gorilla Tracking or Big Five safari, there is no better place to kick back and relax in the East African sunshine.

Before heading off to the beach, be sure to stop off in the capital city, Stone Town. Wander the maze of narrow streets and bustling markets whilst marvelling at the unique Swahili architecture and learning the history of this magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After exploring the sights and sounds of Stone Town, head off to your idyllic beach retreat where you can unwind on white-sand beaches or enjoy a selection of optional activities such as snorkelling and scuba diving, historical tours and cultural excursions.
