Information & Tips for Zanzibar
Zanzibar, an island off the coast of Tanzania, is known for its historic Stone Town, spice farms, and white-sand beaches like those in Nungwi and Kendwa. The local currency is the Tanzanian shilling, though US dollars are widely accepted in tourist areas. Prices range from budget to mid-range, with meals and accommodations generally more affordable than in Western countries. The weather is tropical, with hot, humid conditions year-round; the driest months—and most popular for travel—are June to October.
Getting around Zanzibar can be a bit inconsistent. Within Stone Town, most places are walkable, but the narrow, winding streets can be confusing. For longer distances, dala-dalas (shared minibuses) are cheap but often crowded and unreliable. Taxis and private drivers are more comfortable but relatively expensive. Roads outside the main areas can be rough, and signage is limited, so renting a car is only recommended if you’re confident navigating on your own.
