Full Itinerary
Overview
Welcome to Zanzibar! We are sure you have earned our trip to this magical island! With five nights on this piece of paradise, you can choose to do not much more than soak up the relaxation you deserve… Marvel at the soft lapping of the waves, as the beautiful clear waters of the Indian Ocean meet the perfect white sands of Zanzibar. Add in an introduction to historic, atmospheric Stone Town and your perfect stay is complete.
Day 1: Arrival Day And Welcome To Zanzibar
Upon arriving at Zanzibar’s Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, you’ll be greeted by our driver for a 20-minute transfer to your Stone Town hotel. Enjoy the evening at your leisure with dinner provided by the hotel.
Day 2: Stone Town
This morning, enjoy breakfast at your hotel before meeting our local guide for a Stone Town tour. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage site, including the vibrant market, 19th-century cathedral, and historic Arab and Indian residences. Visit landmarks like Tip Tip House, the Old Fort, and the People’s Palace Museum. Lunch will be at the Silk Route Indian rooftop restaurant with ocean views. Return to your Stone Town hotel for dinner and an evening at leisure. Breakfast and dinner at the hotel, lunch at the Silk Route restaurant (access via a lengthy staircase).
Day 3: Stone Town Hotel – Beach Hotel
After breakfast, you can enjoy the morning at leisure. Your Stone Town hotel will provide you with an early lunch, before we transfer you to your chosen beach hotel for the next part of your stay in exotic, enticing Zanzibar. After the delightful chaos of Stone Town, it’s now time to relax and enjoy some real downtime.
Day 4: Day At Leisure At Your Beach Hotel
Today, you are free to do exactly what you want – and to do as little as you want. After all, you can simply relax by your hotel pool or down on the beach, perhaps under a swaying palm tree. If a day of total inactivity is really not your thing, you can swim or take advantage of one of the activities on offer via your hotel reception.
Day 5: Day At Leisure At Your Beach Hotel
Today is a second full day for you to relax at your oceanside hotel, have a gentle swim in the sea or to enjoy the more active facilities on offer. Or, of course, you can set out to explore a little bit more of this beautiful island. The reception staff at your hotel will be happy to help arrange any activity or excursion that takes your interest.
Day 6: Beach Hotel – Abeid Amani Karume International Airport
After taking breakfast at your hotel, we will transfer you to Abeid Amani Karume International Airport for your onward flight. If you have a later departure, we will arrange for you to have lunch before you leave the hotel.
