4-Day Zanzibar Beach Holiday — Frequently Asked Questions

Is this package suitable for solo travelers?
Yes! Solo travelers are welcome. The package includes all excursions with a guide, so you'll never feel alone. The solo supplement ensures you get your own room and private transfers. Many solo travelers choose Zanzibar for a safe and welcoming beach holiday.
What is the beach like at Nungwi?
Nungwi beach is widely considered the best beach in Zanzibar. It features powdery white sand, crystal-clear turquoise water, and is unaffected by tides — meaning you can swim at any time of day. The beach has a lively atmosphere with beach bars and restaurants but remains peaceful at the resort.
Do I need to know how to swim for the snorkeling?
No, you don't need to be a strong swimmer. Life jackets and flotation devices are provided. The snorkeling areas at Mnemba Atoll are calm with shallow reefs. Your guide will ensure your safety and comfort in the water at all times.
Is Zanzibar safe for tourists?

What currency should I bring?
Both USD and Tanzanian shillings (TZS) are widely accepted. We recommend bringing USD cash for tips and small purchases. The resort accepts credit cards, but smaller vendors in Stone Town prefer cash. ATMs are available in Stone Town but limited on the north coast.
Can I add extra nights before or after the tour?
Absolutely! Extra nights at the beach resort can be arranged at an additional cost. You can arrive earlier or stay longer to extend your tropical paradise experience. Contact our team for a customized quote.
