ZANZIBAR BEACH & HOLIDAY
ABOUT ZANZIBAR
About Zanzibar
Zanzibar is one of the main archipe
lagoes of Tanzania, and the name Tanzania comes from combining the names Tanganyika and
Zanzibar. The name Zanzibar comes from the Arabic Zanjibār and Persian Zang-bār.
Zanzibar consists of two Indian Ocean tropical islands, Pemba and Unguja, surrounded by
several islets, near Dar es Salaam in Tanzania on the East African coast. The capital is
Stone Town.
Why is Zanzibar a top tourist attraction?
Zanzibar is one of my favourite places in the world. It has history, culture, gorgeous
beaches, tons of activities, and flavoursome food.
Zanzibar Core Attractions
Zanzibar Beach
Zanzibar is blessed with beautiful islands, alluring seas, colorful corals, and exotic sea creatures, making it the perfect holiday in the sun.
Stone Town (Mji Mkongwe)
The history of multiple cultures embedded in this ancient African port town leaves a legacy that excites all the senses. Come and get to know culture activities, our food, and our people.
Jozani Forest
The forest is a natural pharmacy and truly an amazing source of natural remedies. The beautiful thing about the Jozani forest tour is that the height of the trees and palms are just outstanding.
Forodhani Market
The Night Market perhaps best represents Zanzibar’s wonderful amalgamation of cultures and cuisines. The vestiges of Zanzibar’s often tragic history linger in many ways; most noticeably in the unique blend of cultures on the Market’s signature white cardboard plates. Dishes vary widely, from Zanzibari pizza, falafel as big as your face, sugar cane juice, enormous samosas, coconut bread, seafood skewers and crepes dripping with ribbons of chocolate syrup.

This tour is a walking tour in a spice farm . While there, you shall see how the spices, herbs and fruits grow and are cultivated. Your tour guide will describe how the crops can be used.
