Zanzibar: The Spice Island

Lying just off the coast of Tanzania, the Zanzibar Archipelago is a tapestry of culture and tropical beauty. Wander through the labyrinthine streets of Stone Town, a UNESCO site where Swahili, Persian, and Indian influences merge in stunning architecture and carved wooden doors. For nature lovers, the Jozani Forest protects the rare Red Colobus monkey, found nowhere else on Earth.
