    Excursión imprescindible!! Tanto Ramos como el Capitán han sido muy amables y educados. Visitamos un banco de arena precioso, hicimos snorkel y vimos gran cantidad de peces, estrellas, corales.. comimos fruta deliciosa y al final muchos delfines, el capitán se ocupó de buscarlos varias veces para verlos. Recomiendo la experiencia sin duda. No olvidéis dejar propina, es mas que merecida. Asante sana!

The Best in Zanzibar

Zanzibar is a tropical paradise off the coast of Tanzania, famous for its white sandy beaches, turquoise waters, and vibrant culture. Whether you're looking for relaxation, adventure, or a bit of both, this island offers it all. From bustling markets in Stone Town to peaceful villages and coral reefs perfect for snorkeling, every visitor finds something to love.

A Brief History

Steeped in rich heritage, Zanzibar has been at the crossroads of cultures for centuries. Arab, Persian, Indian, and European influences have shaped its identity, making it a unique blend of history and tradition. The island was once a major trading centre for spices and a hub in the East African slave trade.

Best Time to Visit

The ideal time to visit is during the dry seasons, from June to October and December to February, when the weather is sunny and perfect for beach activities. Avoid the rainy months of March to May and November if you want to make the most of your stay.

Is it safe to travel?

Zanzibar is generally considered safe for tourists. As with any destination, it's important to take common-sense precautions, especially in crowded areas, and always respect local customs.

What currency is used?

The Tanzanian shilling is the local currency. However, US dollars are widely accepted in many hotels and tourist areas.
