Why this trip
The dhow glides across the water in the evening light, its sails billowing, and on the shore couples eat fish with their feet in the sand: Zanzibar is made for honeymoons, because the island in the Indian Ocean combines two journeys in one. Stone Town tells history in coral stone, and the rest of the coast belongs to the beach. Mtende Beach in the south-east is a quiet stretch where the water recedes far at low tide and glows turquoise at high tide. At the Kidichi Spice Farm couples learn how the spices grow that gave the island its name as the Spice Island.
The Tazari Caves, Maalum Cave and Kiwengwa Caves offer outings underground, and at Cheetah's Rock animals live in a protected environment. July to October is the dry season. Hotels such as the Zuri Zanzibar or the Baraza Resort and Spa lie directly on the beach. If you want a safari first, travel via Arusha or Dar es Salaam and Nyerere National Park, followed by a closing retreat on Zanzibar.
In a video call Honeymoon combines both into a journey in two halves.
