Overview

About Zanzibar Island

Zanzibar combines pristine white-sand beaches and turquoise Indian Ocean waters with the UNESCO-listed Stone Town and centuries of spice-trade history. The perfect finale after a Tanzania safari.

Why Visit with Masonda

Every Tanzania safari deserves a Zanzibar extension. Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage city; the beaches are Indian Ocean perfection. Arusha to Zanzibar is a 1.5-hour domestic flight.
