Zanzibar Island: Stone Town / Nungwi Beach, Tanzania

Zanzibar Island Sunset

Explore the exotic sites of Zanzibar Island in the Indian Ocean for the perfect getaway to complete your African experience. The 7th century Persian slave trading port of Stone Town, set in the narrow streets of Arabic architecture with quaint hotels and restaurants, is a gem of treasures waiting to be explored. It offers an array of cultural sights including historical museums and forts as well as great shopping and entertainment to keep you enchanted and intrigued.

Nungwi Beach, Zanzibar Island

From Stone Town you will head to the beachs on the north tip of the Island. Nungwi beach offers great accommodations and crystal clear waters. Take a sunset sail in a handmade Dow sailboat. Stroll down the beach and explore the turtle preserve at the lighthouse. Venture out near the shore to snorkel and take in the fascinating underwater sites. No matter what you choose to do, this tranquil beach is a great way to relax and recap your African adventure.

From here, additional Add-On trips may be planned:

* Kilimanjaro climb and African Safari - Journey to the highest point on the African continent (19,340'), traversing through 5 distinct eco changes via the Machame route. Then head out for 4 days of an African safari, seeing animals and meeting people of the local tribes of the region.

* Rwanda mountain gorilla tracking. This adventure puts you up close in small groups to families of mountain gorillas from 600lb silverbacks to young offspring upclose. A truly special experience.

* Mount Maru (14,980'): An active volcano and the 2nd highest peak in Tanzania, this summit climb is challenging, but very rewarding.
