5 Days Safari in Zanzibar

Overview

Welcome to mesmerizing Zanzibar, the perfect location to relax and enjoy the ‘downtime’ you deserve. With four nights on the exotic Spice Island, our Zanzibar Beach Holiday gives you plenty of time near the sparkling beach and gorgeous Indian Ocean. Kiwesa Safaris welcomes you to enjoy the warm lapping of the waves, as the beautiful clear waters of the Indian Ocean meet the perfect white sands of Zanzibar. Enjoy your own piece of paradise!

Off the shores of Zanzibar are many little islands offering a more secluded and remote beach experience away from the main attraction of Zanzibar. Some of these islands are only accessible at certain times of the day according to tide levels and these smaller sandbanks and spits are excellent for sailing excursions and picnics. Then there are some permanent islands like Mnembaand Chumbe offering accommodation to travelers.
