Zanzibar

After an action-packed and life-changing three weeks in Tanzania, this is the perfect way to relax with new-found friends and to reflect on your journey before flying home to Australia.

The island of Zanzibar is a semi-autonomous part of the Republic of Tanzania. It is just a 75 minute flight from Kili International Airport and a 2-hour water taxi journey to Dar es Salaam, the country's largest city. Zanzibar is a wonderful community that combines ancient Arabic ruins with pristine sandy beaches. The Stonetown guided walking tour will educate you about the lucrative 19th century slave trade. Swimming with the dolphins or the spice tour are fantastic experiences. Complete your day while watching a golden sunset from Freddie Mercury's Pizza Place. The lead singer from Queen was born here in 1946 and is as famous as the open-air fish markets, which will tease you with fresh barbequed squid or a handsome perch.
