Zanzibar  is an alluring combination of rich and layered trading history plus some of the Indian Ocean’s most seductive beaches. Along the island’s east coast, powder-white sands slope gently into clear, turquoise waters, fringed by coral reefs ideal for swimming, snorkelling and diving. Consistent coastal breezes also make this one of East Africa’s most appealing destinations for kite surfing.
With its warm tropical climate, Zanzibar lends itself to a beach escape at almost any time of year, though April to mid May brings heavier rains.
This sample escape offers the perfect end to your Tanzania safari, or indulging in a restorative island retreat in its own right.
Accommodation is carefully selected to reflect Cedarberg Africa’s focus on style, comfort and location. From refined boutique hideaways to indulgent all-inclusive resorts, we draw on deep regional knowledge to match each stay to your travel style and expectations.
This sample four-night Zanzibar escape is a flexible starting point. Extend your stay to 5-7 nights, adjust the resort choice, and add it on effortlessly to a Tanzania safari. Direct flights from  Arusha to Zanzibar can be arranged,
