Trip overview

This 7-day Tanzanian vacation takes you to Zanzibar Island to explore Stone Town and relax on the beach. It features first-class accommodations and private tours.

Your journey to Zanzibar starts on the west coast of the island in Stone Town. A tour of this historical quarter will take you from the market to the Anglican Church, where slaves were sold during colonial times, to the State House and the Zanzibar Museum, which traces the history of the island. Then walk the actual corridors of Stone Town itself, weaving through winding alleyways and visiting the 16th-century Portuguese fort and old colonial mansions that were owned by spice and slave traders. Connect to a pristine patch of beach along the island’s southeast coast and Breeze Beach Club & Spa, your 5-star home for the next four nights. Enjoy the beautiful and quiet location on one of the island’s best beaches and experience the comforts of Swahili hospitality. You’ll have three full days at leisure to enjoy the resort and the surrounding beaches and waters. Take advantage of the Rising Sun Dive Centre to explore nearby coral gardens or go kite surfing or kayaking on the waters. Get in touch with Swahili culture and learn to do palm weaving or coconut harvesting, or gain some cooking skills with a cooking class. After each day’s activities on the water, recharge with wellness treatments in the award-winning Rangipani Spa. At the end of your stay, connect to the airport for onward travels.
