Zanzibar is beautiful and a very safe city.
Zanzibar is beautiful and a very safe city. They have an organized transport system for tourists . I travelled to Nungwi beach and it was really a beautiful place. It was not crowded and the water was very clear and the water sports activities and so many . There are very many eateries all around . I would highly recommend Zanzibar.Guest review byHazelKenya - 10.0
Activities are great but most places are teeming with...
Activities are great but most places are teeming with tourists. It's probably better to be taken for activities privately (price will be about the same anyways). Better to book through existing tour operators because the freelance guides always add extra onto the price. Night Food market is a must but be careful not to be ripped off, they just handed you plates of food & then charged a ridiculous amount afterwards. Cape Town Fish Market is a must for a sunset dinner. Prison Island & Nakupenda was average, they were overrun with people. The Spice Farms & Slave Chambers are a must to understand the passed history & Coral Caves have stunning natural pools to swim in deep underground. The North has Mnemba Island, great for snorkeling. The East is windy & good for Kite Surfing. The South is supposed to be good for deepsea fishing but myself & another group only caught white Snapper, no Game Fish.Guest review byRoxanneSouth Africa - 8.0
Very busy city, lots of traffic & motor cycles.
Very busy city, lots of traffic & motor cycles. Communication was slow . Very expensive place . Couldn’t find any malls. Lots of tourists . Very interesting shopping at indoor malls & buying fruit off the street. Lots of negotiations for the USD .Guest review byMercy JacobsZimbabwe - 10.0
Zanzibar is an amazing destination.
Zanzibar is an amazing destination. Don't just go to the beaches also visit the villages and learn the culture. Try Sea Walk and Quad Bike is a must. Don't leave Zanzibar without going to Mnemba Island for Dolohines best sighting. In stone town don't miss Stone Town Cafe for their Hearty Beef Burger they call it Sandwitch. At night just stick to Forodhani for all kinds of food.Guest review bySameerKenya - 10.0
Old town is amazing.
Old town is amazing. Walking around the lanes and back roads showed the real character of the place - particularly when you get outside of the "tourist" hub. No need for tour guides - just grab a map and explore. Also visit the fish market for a real look into the day to day life of the locals and fishermen.Guest review byGregoryAustralia - 10.0

Stone Town in Zanzibar is the place to stay, for about three days. Enjoy the excellent beaches by staying at one or more, dividing your time between northern & southern beaches. preferable to hire a car for this purpose, as large distances & some activities like dolphin watching best from 6 to 7 AM, less crowd & more dolphins. each beach has something special, like Page beach for Kite Boarding. plenty of sea based activities. sothern beaches less crowdedGuest review bypekakuli ittyIndia

- From $190.40 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 7.7Good - What previous guests thought, 1,580 reviewsThe surroundings of the hotel are real magic, the facility is in the middle of Stone Town, the historical heart of Zanzibar City, with sweet narrow streets and the soul of the island. The staff are amazing, always at your service, I needed to print 40 papers for work, they did it without charge, I forgot my jacket in the closet and went on a safari, they kept it for me and handed it to me when I got back. The beds are super comfortable. Bathroom ok.Guest review byRobertCroatia
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.2Very Good - What previous guests thought, 1,556 reviewsThis was our second time staying at Tembo. The hotel is perfectly located. Right on the beach with two pools and a great continental breakfast. Rooms are a good size and ours came with a balcony. We stayed in the annex building this time which was only a few mins walk from the main building. Staff are lovely and they even made sure we had a take away breakfast the morning we left as we had an early flight.Guest review byTomUnited Arab Emirates
- From $200 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.1Very Good - What previous guests thought, 4,676 reviewsTembo is such a beautiful hotel with welcoming staff and clean areas. The rooms were huge, well ventilated and had a lot of mirrors because why not? The bathroom was very clean which was relaxing because we had been flying for long and needed a nice bath. The hotel also has a nice proximity to the airport and other places we wanted to visit in stone town and I definitely recommend it.Guest review byAghadiunoNigeria
