Zanzibar Travel Guide

 

For the discerning traveler

 

Welcome to the Zanzibar travel guide.


We have divided the section up into places to stay, where you will find all the Zanzibar hotels and Pemba hotels, things to see, which show you what you can see in Zanzibar and how to get there, which shows you how to get to Zanzibar from the USA, UK and South Africa. Pretty much the whole of Zanzibar revolves around Stone Town. All  holidays begin here, and this is where Zanzibar's international airport is located.

There are many other routes to get to Zanzibar, but these shown in the how to get there guide,are the most traveled and easiest. If you are coming from any other international destination, please email us, and we will let you know the best route from your country, along with the approximate cost.


We have also included domestic travel schedules in this guide, in case you are wanting combine a safari  with your Zanzibar trip. Tanzania is an awesome country, so please have a look at our Tanzania guide for Serengeti Safaris or Kilimanjaro climbs and many more destinations that you could combine with your Zanzibar trip.

In the where to stay guide, you will find the best places to stay on the islands. We have not included all the places to stay in Zanzibar, as quite frankly, some are not worth it. Should you be interested in staying at one of the hotels, or phone one of our local offices and we will gladly give you a quote. Remember, the more people traveling, the cheaper it is per person. We have rated the hotels according to what we feel is the best value for money. That means good service, good rooms, good facilities and good food. We have personally been to all the hotels mentioned in the guide along with many more and the hotels listed are worth your while.

The what to see guide gives you some indication of what you can see and do on the island. Should you be staying in a specific area for a while, contact us for information on the entertainment that is offered in that area.

If you have any queries, we are only a click away. As we have mentioned throughout the guide, we know the island well, and will be able to answer any of your questions and assist you with planning your trip. If you do not feel comfortable with planning the whole trip yourself, we have included popular itineraries in the our itineraries guide. There are various options, and one should be available to suit your needs.
