A week in Zanzibar

Our take

Zanzibar is the ultimate vacation paradise! I spent a week soaking in its vibrant energy, starting in Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The narrow alleys, intricately carved wooden doors, and fragrant spice markets make it a must-visit. The Swahili food was a delightful bonus! Then, we ventured north to Nungwi, where the postcard-perfect beaches and crystal-clear turquoise waters took our breath away. We found joy in doing absolutely nothing on the soft, white sands.

A week in Zanzibar

I spent a week in Zanzibar and it was the most relaxing thing i have had in the recent past. I started off the trip in Stone Town, which I'd recommend to anyone. The old city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and once you're walking through it you understand why immediately. Narrow alleys, carved wooden doors everywhere, spice markets, the smell of cloves hitting you out of nowhere. The swahili food was also very good. Highly recommend.

From Stone Town we headed north to Nungwi, which is a completely different energy open beach, clearer water, that classic Zanzibar postcard scene. Pale turquoise close to shore fading out to deep blue and white sand It is absolutely gorgeous. We spent more time than planned just sitting at the edge of it doing absolutely nothing.

A beautiful island for a vacation.
