Welcome to Zanzibar

Set like a jewel in tranquil coral waters, only 20 minutes flight from Dar es Salaam, is one of the world's most beautiful islands - Zanzibar. Its name evokes a romantic past. To the shores of these islands came Sumerians, Assyrians, Hindus, Egyptians, Phoenicians, Arabians, Chinese, Malaysians, and the Portuguese, all sailing in on Monsoon winds. From these shores, the great European explorers Burton, Speke, Livingstone, Krapf, Rebman, and Grant set out on their voyages of discovery into the East and Central African hinterland.

The different races that have settled in Zanzibar over the centuries have left an imprint on the people and the architecture. The "House of Wonders" and the narrow streets of Old Stone Town are just some of the vivid reminders of the island's long and colored history. Zanzibar is also the birthplace of the fascinating Swahili culture with its elegant architecture, full of balconies, courtyards, hand-carved doors, and mosques.
