The low, lush coastal strip northwest of Selous is home to Tanzania’s largest city, Dar es Salaam, which serves as the gateway to the fascinating islands of Zanzibar.
The Zanzibar archipelago, which consists of the Zanzibar and Pemba Islands as well as several islets, are located in the Indian Ocean approximately 25 miles off the coast of Tanzania.
Zanzibar is a veritable paradise with the historic Stone Town, white sand beaches, unique coral reefs, and the only location on Earth where you can find Kirk’s Red Colobus monkeys. It’s the ideal place to unwind and relax, especially after an exciting safari.
