Best time to visit Zanzibar:

Things to do in Zanzibar:
● Go spice and souvenir shopping at the Darajani Market; stock up on vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg for days when you need a tropical escape back home.
● Meet giant tortoises at Prison Island, a place which once served as a detention home for rebellious slaves and patients with contagious diseases.
● Relish street food at the Forodhani night market, especially the fresh seafood and shawarmas.
● Wander the maze of narrow streets in Stone Town. The winding alleys make for one of the most beautiful sights you’ll come across on the island.
