Zanzibar
Zanzibar, off the coast of Tanzania, extends Timeline Travel's reach beyond Southern Africa into East Africa's classic beach-and-culture destination — Stone Town's history alongside the island's beaches. It sits outside the current 9 packaged tours, but it's a genuine destination Timeline Travel can arrange travel to, whether on its own or paired with a mainland safari.
Things to Do
Stone Town
Zanzibar's UNESCO World Heritage old town, with its winding streets, historic architecture and Swahili, Arab and Indian influences.
Zanzibar beaches
The island's white-sand beaches and warm Indian Ocean waters, Zanzibar's best-known draw for leisure travellers.
Spice tours
Guided tours of Zanzibar's spice farms, reflecting the island's long history in the spice trade.
Travel Information
Zanzibar isn't part of Timeline Travel's current packaged tour range, and no specific itinerary exists for it yet — a tour package is expected to follow. In the meantime, it's a destination Timeline Travel can genuinely arrange custom travel to, in keeping with the company's tailor-made approach: get in touch through Suggest a Trip or Plan My Trip to start building a Zanzibar trip, on its own or combined with an East or Southern African safari.
