Zanzibar Safaris

Zanzibar Island is a Tanzanian group of islands situated off the East African coast. So many tourists go on Zanzibar safaris annually and mainly for beach holidays. The island is one of the top destinations to visit in Africa for excursions. Its beaches are apparently among the best in the continent with a whole lot of water sport activities to engage in. Right on the main island, Unguja lies the stone town (a world heritage site) – an area full of history that dates way back. The town has a lot of Swahili and Arab influences. So many Arabs live here till date! You will see this on your budget and luxury Zanzibar safari holidays. The smaller of these islands are Mnemba, Chapwani, Tumbatu, Chumbe, Bawe and Changuu (Prison Island). Nyange and Pange are just some of the sandbank isles.

So many travelers misunderstand Zanzibar safaris. What comes first in their minds is beach holidays not knowing this island is a great place for cultural encounters and primate experiences.
