Zanzibar, myth or reality? No doubt, reality: Zanzibar is an archipelago of 1000 square miles located 25 miles east of Tanzania mainland, 6 degrees south of Equator. Myth or reality? No doubt, myth: the sole pronunciation of its name places our minds in the magic field of dreams, of Arabian sultans and princesses, luxury, endless unspoiled beaches and coconut trees. And, as we all know, reality goes always beyond fantasy: the best of the dreams is the real Zanzibar. The name of Zanzibar Zanguebar, Bilad es Zandj ("the land of black people") for the first Muslim traders that recalled in these shores, summarizes nowadays the originality and endless relations that over 1000 years have built this complex cultural system that evolves in a privileged natural framework, at which the strength of colours and smells sharpen our senses: the wonderful blue sea and white sands of the breathtaking beaches, the green of the luxuriant vegetation, the spices. Like Zanzibari people, fauna and flora are also examples of the mixture of elements of different backgrounds: the Giant Tortoises in Changuu Island are now as local as the Red Columbus monkeys of Jozani Forest. Let us discover together the magnificent natural and cultural richness of Zanzibar: our excursion office will open for you the door of endless possibilities of touring the island in a personalized and exclusive way, with a solid infrastructure and imaginative and innovative suggestions.
