Untouched white sands gleam in the sun, dhows drift on clear aquamarine waters, and rustling vegetation reveals the whereabouts of Kirk鈥檚 red colobus monkeys. The Zanzibar Archipelago may seem like a simple place to visit for some relaxation, but our specialists have looked beyond the obvious and can help plan in lesser-known places to go on your Zanzibar holiday.
In Zanzibar Island鈥檚 interior, spice farms and coconut plantations reveal its industrious side. Cinnamon and vanilla waft from market stalls in Stone Town, where winding streets link tall houses and intricately decorated sultan鈥檚 palaces. The less-developed Pemba Island has gentle green hills and coral reefs that offer some of East Africa鈥檚 best diving, while the remote Mafia Archipelago comprises islands dotted with quiet fishing villages and giant baobabs.
