Relaxing in Zanzibar After Your Climb

There's no better reward for tired legs than the warm Indian Ocean. A short flight from Kilimanjaro, the spice island of Zanzibar is the perfect way to end your Tanzania adventure.

What to do

• Stone Town — wander the UNESCO-listed maze of coral-stone streets, markets and carved doors.
• Spice farms — tour the fragrant plantations of cloves, vanilla and nutmeg that gave the islands their name.
• Snorkelling & diving — turquoise water, coral reefs and traditional dhow sailing trips.
• Beach time — simply relax at a beachfront resort and let the mountain become a memory.

How long to stay

Three to five nights is ideal — long enough to see Stone Town and the spice farms and still get proper beach time. We can arrange the flights from Kilimanjaro and your stay as part of your itinerary. See our Zanzibar add-on.
