Zanzibar has captivated travellers with its fragrant spice plantations, beautiful beaches and the vibrant atmosphere of its historic capital, Stone Town. Its name evokes images of tropical island escapes, rich cultural heritage and the timeless charm of the Indian Ocean.

Located just off the coast of mainland Tanzania, Zanzibar is a beautiful archipelago of lush islands surrounded by sparkling turquoise waters. Approaching by air reveals a breathtaking panorama of coral reefs, shallow lagoons and traditional white-sailed dhows gliding across the ocean.

Across the islands, you’ll find an exceptional choice of accommodation, from stylish beachfront retreats and restored historic palaces to private island villas and welcoming family-friendly resorts. Whether you’re seeking an intimate romantic escape, sustainable luxury or a relaxed family holiday, Zanzibar offers something for every traveller.

At the heart of the archipelago lies Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its fascinating history and distinctive architecture. Wander through its maze of narrow streets, explore lively markets, discover traditional shops and admire the beautifully carved wooden doors of historic merchant houses. The town offers a fascinating glimpse into Zanzibar’s Swahili, Arab and Omani influences.
