5 Days Zanzibar Safari to Spice Island, Nungwi & Stone Town – Located in the magnificent Indian Ocean in East Africa, Zanzibar Island is one of the best destinations for tourists.
It boasts a history of trade since it was the market where Arab traders met African traders in exchange for goods and services. This trade later resulted in intermarriages between Arabs and Africans, giving birth to the Swahili people of East Africa who speak a common language known as “Kiswahili.”
The 5-day Zanzibar safari tour takes you to beautiful beaches, historical centers, hotels, to mention but a few.
