Zanzibar Explorer

On arrival at Zanzibar Airport, you’ll be met and transferred to Nungwi, a peaceful beach paradise. Spend the afternoon relaxing on the sand, swimming in turquoise waters, or enjoying a sunset dhow cruise. Savour fresh seafood and local Swahili dishes, a delicious introduction to the island’s flavours.

Your day, your choice. Take an optional snorkelling trip to Mnemba Atoll to explore vibrant coral reefs and tropical fish, or visit the nearby private island owned by Bill Gates. You can also enjoy a quiet day on the beach, reading, swimming, or just soaking up the sun. Every activity is optional, with plenty of opportunities to enjoy the local cuisine and the relaxed pace of island life.

After a relaxed morning in Nungwi, make your way to historic Stone Town. On the way, visit a spice farm and take in the rich aromas of Zanzibar’s famous cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Once in Stone Town, explore its narrow streets on a walking tour, or simply wander and discover its charm at your own pace. In the evening, head to the lively Forodhani Food Market to sample local street food and soak up the beautiful island atmosphere. All activities are optional, so you can do as much or as little as you like at your own pace.

Spend the morning visiting Prison Island to meet the giant tortoises and swim with them, then enjoy a seafood BBQ on the stunning Nakupenda Sandbank, surrounded by clear turquoise waters. If you prefer a slower pace, you can simply relax in Stone Town instead. You can also return to your hotel and take a refreshing swim in the beautiful waters of Zanzibar.

On your final day, enjoy a leisurely morning in Nungwi; take a last swim, stroll along the soft sands, or simply relax and savour the view. You’ll be collected from your beach hotel and transferred to Zanzibar International Airport for your flight home or onward destination, taking with you memories of the beaches, culture, and flavours that made your escape so memorable.
