3 Day Zanzibar Beach Escape

Tour Overview

This is the simplest way to add Zanzibar to a longer trip, or to book on its own as a short beach break. Three days is enough to properly unwind on the island's white-sand beaches and turquoise water without feeling like you've only just arrived when it's time to leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this be added to the end of a Kenya or Tanzania safari?
Yes - this is exactly what it's designed for. We'll arrange your onward flight connection and transfers so it links up with the end of your safari.
Which coast is better, north or east?
The north (around Nungwi and Kendwa) has less dramatic tides and more nightlife; the east coast is quieter with a bigger tidal range affecting swimming at low tide. We can advise based on what you want from the stay.
