Zanzibar Island
Apart from it’s intriguing history, Zanzibar has plenty of enthralling experiences to offer visitors. The quiet streets of Stone Town has still retained it’s Arabic influence which can be seen from the shops and palaces of the Sultans who created their empires on the spoils of slave and ivory trade. Zanzibar is well-known for it’s tasty spices and a trip around one of the spice plantations always proves to be an extremely interesting experience. Other Optional Excursions include an outing to the incredible beaches and giant tortoises of Prison Island, a full day scuba dive in Nungwe or even a fishing trip in a traditional dhow. You can hire a moped to get yourself around the island, perhaps to one of the brilliant seafood restaurants where you can indulge in a sumptuous and very reasonably-priced meal. Zanzibar is a seafood lover’s heaven, with only the freshest seafood being caught daily – crayfish being a rather well-liked specialty. If you prefer feel free to socialize with the interesting and friendly locals during dinner.
Meals are for your own account while in Zanzibar, as it is our experience that passengers prefer to explore the island on their own.
