ZANZIBAR TRAVEL GUIDE 🏝️
THINGS TO DO
Stone Town:
Spend at least 2 hours here. The architecture is beautiful and there’s lots of great shopping. The island locals are muslim, so you’ll need to cover up when walking around town.
Jozani Forest:
Take a short hike through the forest to spot the cute Zanzibar Red Colobus Monkeys.
Snorkeling:
There’s lots of amazing places to go snorkeling around the island. I went to the Blue Lagoon because it was at our local beach by the hotel. The water temperature is amazing and there were so many colourful fish amongst the reef.
WHERE TO STAY
We loved our 2 bedroom villa the_bali_resort_zanzibar, it was so quiet and peaceful and just a 5 minute walk to the beach.
GETTING THERE
If you’re staying at one of the popular beach resort towns, the airport is more than an hour away. You can get a 9% discount for an airport transfer with my code TANYA09 with travelthru.official. They operate across more than 500 airports worldwide.
Hakuna Matata - Don't worry! 😍
Their clothing, friendliness and especially their smile attracts attention. What beautiful people they are. So interesting also how they live and who they are. The Maasai World is without a doubt a place that must be visited on a vacation to Zanzibar! ❤️🇹🇿☺️

Sometimes all you need to hear…
is the sound of the sea 🌊
the wilderness of water
the waves…
they break, transient, yet always there, rising, and falling.
the light scatters…the hue of the water ever changing…
but always, and forever, that glorious blue…
*memories from Mnemba Island, Zanzibar 📍
