Stone Town and Zanzibar Beach Escape

Overview

This Zanzibar Stone Town holiday is designed for British tourists who want more than a simple beach stay. Over 11 days and 10 nights, the package begins in Stone Town, where narrow lanes, carved doors, local markets, seafront views and Swahili-Arabian heritage introduce the cultural heart of Zanzibar. The itinerary then moves into the island's spice country and natural attractions before settling into a relaxed beach escape on Zanzibar's north coast or east coast. It is a strong choice for travellers searching for a Zanzibar Stone Town holiday that combines history, private guiding, island flavour and unhurried time beside the Indian Ocean. Travel Hype Adventures can adapt the hotel category, beach location and excursion style to suit couples, families or small private groups from the UK.
