Important Notice

We offer you various programs for your holidays in Zanzibar. Also for this part of your trip we can plan your stay on the island individually.

Let us know how long you want to stay and what your favorite activities are or choose one of our programs. We'll arrange everything for you on the following sites. In the programs we combine some nice activities with free days at the beaches.

Our programs are planed with the denoted hotels. These hotels have a simple but good standard. If you prefer to stay in other more comfortable hotels you can choose them by yourself on our accommodation site. It's also possible to rent your own private house near the beach, sometimes with your own cook.

The north coast as well the east coast are swell coasts with long white sand beaches. The north coast is more touristic with more hotels and visitors in opposition to the nice east coast. But mind that there is a tidal difference at the east coast, so swimming is not permanently possible.

Every overnight stay in the hotels is including breakfast, while on your free days and also for the evenings after the excursion lunch and dinner are not included. You have the chance to choose the food yourself in the numerous restaurants along the beaches or on the markets in Stonetown. One tip for Stonetown is the market Forodhani Garden, where you can find typical African food, different types of fresh fish, seafood, fruits and the famous freshly pressed sugar cane juice.

Diving and snorkeling equipment can be rented in several diving centers. Take good care for your skin to avoid sunburn when you snorkel in the water.

You can reach Zanzibar airport with some international directly flights from Europe, a domestic flight from the Tanzania mainland or the ferry from Dar es Salaam.
