6 Days, 5 Nights Zanzibar Beach Holiday Experience

Zanzibar Overview

Zanzibar is a semi-autonomous archipelago located off the coast of Tanzania in East Africa. It is made up of several islands, the largest being Unguja (commonly called Zanzibar Island) and Pemba Island. The capital, Zanzibar City, is situated on Unguja Island.

Zanzibar’s rich history has been shaped by its strategic position along historic trade routes. It once served as a key hub for the spice and slave trades, and today its culture reflects a unique fusion of African, Arab, Persian, Indian, and European influences. Stone Town, the old quarter of Zanzibar City, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its narrow winding streets, historic buildings, and vibrant marketplaces.
