Zanzibar Beach Vacations:-
Zanzibar is East Africa’s finest beach Vacation destination. It is surrounded by coral reefs with numerous idyllic beaches lined by huge sweeping palm trees. The city of Zanzibar is often referred to as Stone Town because of the coral stone used in the construction of many of the older buildings found along the narrow alleys ways.
Zanzibar islands lie at the top of Tanzania’s Indian Ocean coastline. Over the centuries, Zanzibar have been influenced by numerous cultures which have blended together to create the Zanzibar of today. The confusing mix originates from an African Asian combination created by a touch of Persian, Arabian, Indian and Chinese influences with some Dutch, Portuguese and English thrown in for good measure. Slaves and spices made these islands famous.
No visits to this exciting island is complete without a tour of this historic town. The three hour guided tour includes the city market, a century old Anglican Church of Christ, built on the site of the notorious slave trade in 1874.
