Review of Zanzibar (Tanzania)

GO TO ZANZIBAR.

Advantages: Amazingly beautiful and peaceful
Disadvantages: little nightlife, little shopping.

...Island! I went to Zanzibar last year with the rest of my family where we stayed in the MAPENZI BEACH CLUB HOTEL (on the east coast) over Christmas. These 10 days spent in the sun where some of the most relaxeing and enjoyable of my life. The landscape and scenery where awesome as well as peaceful. From the paradise blue and white beaches of the coast to the ragtag beauty of Stone town (the several hundred year old, Unesco World heritage city), ...
...the slave memorials and statues, the colonial house museum as well as the small streets and local shops (where you can put your price haggling skills to good use.) There are pretty much no western shops so don't expect to find your next Gucci bag there. The resort itself was supposedly the best around the area (we got a lot of people from other hotels coming to ours for their massages, hehe) It contained beautifully natural and abstract decoration ...

Review of Zanzibar (Tanzania)

Stunning, Beautiful, Awesome...

Advantages: Beaches, Sun, Culture, Food
Disadvantages: Not that easy to get around unless you have experience

...of the small island of Zanzibar was the awesome beaches and culture which as we found out was much different to that on the mainland. My stay was split into three parts. First an overnight stay in the Hotel Marine in Stone town (the capital of the island), secondly a three night stay in the Matenuve Bahariri beach bungalows on the north east side of the island. The final part was another overnight stay in the Hotel Marine. Because the boat journey ...
...es Salaam international airport to Zanzibar airport which cost about $50 return (bargain!), i think it was air Tanzania but it could have been air Kenya (they all seemed to be working together though). The plane journey was only about 1 hour long and even though it was a bit bunpy it was well worth the money. Zanzibar airport was extremely interesting as it was extremely small and had a really relaxed atmosphere. The luggage came out immediately ...

Review of Zanzibar (Tanzania)

A honeymoon hotspot

Advantages: Beautiful beaches, relaxed lifestyle, friendly people
Disadvantages: Delayed flights

My husband took me Zanzibar for our honeymoon. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Our flight was due to leave Mombasa, Kenya at 6.30pm for Zanzibar and we were delayed until 9pm! On reaching Zanzibar, we arrived to a warm welcome from the airport staff who were very helpful in helping us get our luggage. I was suprised to see that they have the state of the art technology at such a small airport where they scanned our passports ...
...If you need to do a bit of shopping or experience the culture and people, you need to arrange for a taxi and leave early in the morning before the sun gets too hot. The experience and sights of Zanzibar are definately worth the time and the money. ...
