It's a tropical paradise in every word, yet it offers so much more than simply its outwardly stunning appearance. The archipelago known as Zanzibar is located in the Indian Ocean, around 24 kilometres (15 miles) off the coast of Tanzania in East Africa. It is part of the country of Tanzania. The main island, Unguja, often known as Zanzibar, is where most tourists choose to spend their time while in the country. Zanzibar is known for its diverse population structure, which includes a large proportion of Arabs, Africans, and Indians. Agriculture is the primary means by which residents of Zanzibar earn a living. 


Holidays in Zanzibar offer an exciting blend of rich cultures, stunning natural scenery, white sandy beaches, blue stunning waters and above all very warm and welcoming locals. If you are looking for something very different from your holiday, Zanzibar makes a great choice of destination, whether its Honeymoon, Luxury holiday or a family vacation of a lifetime.
