Overview

Three days is enough for a proper taste of Zanzibar: a walking tour of Stone Town, a day of snorkeling or relaxing on the beach, and a slow final morning before you fly.

It fits neatly on the end of a mainland safari or Kilimanjaro climb, as Zanzibar is only a short flight from Arusha or the Serengeti. We will help you choose a beach to match your pace, from busy Nungwi to the calmer east coast.
