Extension Packages

Zanzibar is one of the most famous beach destinations of Africa. There are some spectacular beaches on the island, with pristine white sands and clean blue ocean water. These beaches are lined with resorts, from the south, all the way up the east coast and to the northern tip of the island. Activities, which can be enjoyed at additional costs, include scuba diving, snorkeling, parasailing, stand up paddle boarding or swimming with the dolphins. A day trip into Stone Town is well worth the time where the narrow streets are lined with traders selling everything from art works to ancient wooden doors, from tie dye t-shirts to the local Tanzanite jewelry. Although Zanzibar offers a range of activities, many travelers choose to simply relax and unwind after their Kilimanjaro climb. You can sit back enjoying the resort, sunbath on the beautiful beach and watch the white dhow sailing boats as the local fisherman find their daily catch.

For many people, a trip to Africa is not complete without experiencing a safari. Choosing the Safari & Zanzibar option will allow you to experience the 3 best things, which Tanzania has to offer - Mt Kilimanjaro, Safari & the beach.

 

Option 1:
Moshi Day Trips and Zanzibar.

This green village with fresh air from green vegetation welcomes visitors to explore the beauty of the land and cultural heritage of the Chagga people.
