Zanzibar Safaris and Vacation Packages

Today, Zanzibar offers a complete change of pace from that of the mainland on Tanzania's vacation. It continues to be a melting pot of cultures and Arab, Persian, Indian, European and African influences are felt everywhere. Along with Tanzania’s Mafia Island, Zanzibar is sometimes referred to as the Spice Islands as the production of cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and black pepper among others remains an important industry.

A popular tourist destination, many people visit the archipelago to learn about its rich history while others come to take advantage of the white sand beaches. Pemba in particular is becoming very well-known for the dive sites in its channels. Experienced divers can enjoy the untouched and less crowded reefs on offer.
