Zanzibar Beach Holiday FAQs

How much does a Zanzibar beach holiday cost?

Our Zanzibar packages start from $680 per person for a 4-day island-hop trip, up to $980+ per person for wellness/luxury-tier stays, depending on hotel category and activities.

What is the best time for a Zanzibar beach holiday?

June to October and December to February are the driest, sunniest months. March to May is Zanzibar's rainy season and best avoided for a beach-focused trip.

Can I combine it with a safari or Kilimanjaro climb?

Yes — Zanzibar is a popular add-on after a mainland Tanzania safari or Kilimanjaro climb, with short flights connecting Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport to Zanzibar.

What is there to do besides the beach?

Snorkelling and diving, sunset dhow cruises, spice tours, and exploring Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
