5 Days Zanzibar Beach Holiday
Safari Overview
Stone Town, the island capital and a historic center of trade and culture, is where most visitors come and depart from Zanzibar. The Sultans had their seat in this ancient center, and the decaying palaces, bath houses, and mosques remain a testament of this luxurious and active period at the core of the gold trade.
There are good options for every traveler, whether it’s for a Zanzibar holiday, honeymoon, or some post-safari relaxation; whether you prefer the blissful privacy of a private island or the amenities of a larger hotel; and whatever your preferred activities (diving and snorkeling, eating, sleeping, playing tennis, reading on a lounger…)
