The Zanzibar region

The Islands of Zanzibar are the ideal destination for a fascinating holiday in Africa. The main island, known as the Spice Island, stirs the imagination and conjures up images of magical Arabian nights, the scent of spices and spirit of ages gone by. The white pristine beaches, the rich cultural heritage, the spice farms, the labyrinth of the winding lanes of Stone Town and the joyfulness of the Zanzibari will leave a long lasting impression of a holiday in paradise.

Walking trough the narrow streets in Stone Town will take you back in history and lead you to the City Market where local traders offer fresh fruit, meat and fish every day. Pay a visit to the Old Fort, the House of Wonders (the first house equipped with electricity in East Africa) Livingstone House and the old Slave Market.

Zanzibar is also ideally located for a safari or visit to some of the fabulous parks in Kenya or Tanzania, Mount Kilimanjaro is only a 45 minutes flight away from Zanzibar.
