Overview

Zanzibar is just 90 minutes from Nairobi and no visa is required for Kenyan citizens, which makes it the easiest “international” beach holiday there is. We split the stay between Stone Town, for its alleys, markets and sunset at Forodhani Gardens, and the north coast, where Nungwi and Kendwa beaches have the best swimming at all tides.

Choose from three-star boutique hotels to five-star all-inclusives. Honeymoon packages include room upgrades and a private sunset cruise.
