Tanzania Zanzibar Relaxation 08 Days

You will be picked up at the Zanzibar International Airport and transferred to your hotel in Nungwi, north Zanzibar, for overnight.
This hotel is right on the beach and you can go wet your feet in the warm Indian ocean waters.

Pick up from hotel after breakfast and head for a combined Stone Town and Spice tour as per below descriptions; 

Guaranteed to awaken your senses. Visit spice plantations where you will have the opportunity to pick, smell & savour fruit & spices that you have probably never seen on the supermarket shelf.
Commencing at the ruins of the Maruhubi Palace, via the site of David Livingston’s house (one of Africa’s greatest explorers) the journey continues north toward the Kidichi Persian Baths.

From here we continue to the rural areas where local farmers live & produce some of the world’s most exotic fruit and spices. Cloves, star fruit, ‘bulls’ heart’, tangerine trees, lemon grass, mangosteen and lip-stick trees, to name but a few, are what you can expect to see – according to the seasons. Perhaps you will fancy buying a basket of freshly picked spices to take home with you.

After the Spice tour you will be driven to Stone town for a lunch break (to be paid by yourselves) then proceed on a guided Stone town tour as per below descriptions;​

​Begin with a visit to Zanzibar’s colourful market, alive with the buzz of locals bartering fresh vegetables and baskets of tropical fruit, cocoa farm, amongst the heady smell of exotic fruit. Continue to the site of a cathedral built in 1874. The cathedral signifies a potent time in Zanzibar’s history and stands on the sight of a past slave market with the high altar standing on the exact site of the whipping post.

Slavery was abolished in 1873 by decree of the Sultan of Zanzibar. From here visit the residence of the late Sultan of Zanzibar, ‘Tip Tip House’, the Old Fort, ‘Peoples Palace’ and the House of Wonders’, Forodhani garden full of intrigue from days of long ago. The tour ends with a stroll down the narrow streets of the old Stone Town, the heart of Zanzibar’s chequered history.

Adventure out for a walk through the rural villages built out of coral cement, see how they make the dhows, and near by the light house, there is the Mnarani Marine Turtles Conservation Pond, a sanctuary for turtles.

The sanctuary is a long-established conservation program where injured marine turtles are treated and looked after at a natural lagoon. The turtles are released several times per year and the project also breeds turtle eggs at a safe location until the baby turtles hatch. Young turtles are kept at various pools and at the lagoon. They are released into the ocean once they reach a size that guarantees a higher chance of survival in the wild.
